As poet, essayist, letter-writer, and teacher,
Charles Olson was a seminal figure in the generation after Ezra Pound and
William Carlos Williams. His first book, Call Me Ishmael, is an interpretation
of Melville's Moby-Dick that deserves a place beside D. H. Lawrence's Studies
in Classic American Literature, Williams's In the American Grain, and Edward
Dahlberg's Can These Bones Live. His long sequence, The Maximus Poems, is the
major attempt at a "personal epic" after Pound's Cantos and Williams's
Paterson. He increasingly thought of himself as a "mythographer" or
"archaeologist of morning" who aimed to reconnect us with the natural process
from which we have been alienated by the rationalist thought of the last 2,500
in Worcester, Massachusetts, Olson grew up there while spending summers in
Gloucester, the city he later celebrated in The Maximus Poems. He attended
Wesleyan University, from which he received a B.A. and an M.A. with a thesis on
Melville. He then embarked on a search for Melville's library and tracked down
many of his books, including his personally annotated Hawthorne and
Shakespeare. Olson taught English for two years at Clark University, took a
summer job on the schooner Doris W. Hawkes, and entered Harvard's American
Civilization program, where he studied with the historian Frederick Merk and
the literary scholar F. O. Matthiessen. After completing the course-work for
the Ph.D., he returned to Gloucester to take up a Guggenheim Fellowship for
studies in Melville. In 1940 he met Constance Wilcock, who became his
common-law wife, and began working in New York for the American Civil Liberties
Union and then for the Common Council for American Unity. From 1942 to 1944, he
worked for the Office of War Information in Washington and then became director
of the Foreign Nationalities Division, Democratic National Committee. In 1945,
disenchanted with politics, he decided to commit himself to writing. During
that year he wrote Call Me Ishmael (based on his earlier Melville research),
several poems, and an essay in qualified defense of Ezra Pound, the boldly
mimetic "This Is Yeats Speaking."
the next three years, Olson met Pound and also the geographer Carl Sauer (an
important influence on his thought), worked on a book about the American West, wrote
a dance-play based on Moby-Dick, and began to lecture at Black Mountain College
as a replacement for his friend and mentor, Edward Dahlberg. In 1949 he wrote
his important postmodernist poem "The Kingfishers." In 1950 he began
corresponding with Robert Creeley, wrote the first Maximus poem, and published
"Projective Verse," in which he reasserted Creeley's principle, "FORM IS NEVER
MORE THAN AN EXTENSION OF CONTENT," and Dahlberg's clue to poetic process, "ONE
PERCEPTION MUST IMMEDIATELY AND DIRECTLY LEAD TO A FURTHER PERCEPTION." In 1951
he began his association with Cid Corman and the magazine Origin, traveled to
the Yucatán to study Mayan culture, and wrote "Human Universe," in which he
argued that art "is the only twin life has" because it "does not seek to
describe but to enact."
year he also joined Black Mountain full-time, where he remained (except for a
leave in 1952 for further research on Mayan glyphs) as faculty member and then
rector until the college closed in 1956. While there he separated from
Constance and took as common-law wife Elizabeth Kaiser. Olson effectively
turned Black Mountain into an arts center. Among his associates were the
painters Franz Kline and Robert Rauschenberg, the dancer Merce Cunningham, and
the musician John Cage. In 1957 Olson returned to Gloucester, from which he
traveled to various colleges for lectures and readings. In 1963 he began to
teach at the State University of New York at Buffalo. In 1964 his wife,
Elizabeth, was killed in an automobile accident—a tragedy from which Olson
never recovered. He returned to Gloucester in 1965 and then accepted in 1969 a
position at the University of Connecticut, where he taught for a few weeks
before his death. During these years, he had continued to work on The Maximus
Poems, which he never completed. The third book of that sequence was
posthumously arranged from his notes by his former students Charles Boer and
George F. Butterick.
poetry is often elliptical and allusive, with a range that can include Sumerian
myth, Heraclitus, Hesiod, the linguist B. L. Whorf, the cyberneticist Norbert
Wiener, the philosopher Alfred North Whitehead, the psychologist C. G. Jung,
and the details of both ancient and modern history. His style tends to be
meditative and didactic, but with frequent lyricism. It is often made difficult
by incomplete syntax, heavy reliance upon abstract terms, brief notations, and
a disjunctive or paratactic forward motion that piles up incremental meanings
and produces an effect of continual self-revision. These traits are in accord
with Olson's understanding of art as "enactment." His constantly twisting
utterance seeks not to describe but to enact the movements of a speaker who is
himself in "process" as he grapples with the matter in hand. As Olson said once
at Goddard College, "I myself would wish that all who spoke and wrote, spoke
always from a place that is new at that moment that they do speak...."

Standup comedian Sofie Hagen suffers from social anxiety. She knows she's not alone and wants to help others who feel the same. Ben & Jerry's tub optional.
I once pissed in a Ben & Jerry's tub. It was empty, obviously; I'm not a monster. I just really had to go. There was a toilet in the house, but my housemate was having a party. Meaning there would be people out there.
You know, people… Those awfully terrifying, unreliable, existing creatures who will ask you questions that will make you feel stupid and who will maybe judge you or hug you or ignore you. I hope you understand why I had to pee in an empty 500ml tub.
That was the night I learned a lot of things. I learned that I probably had some kind of social anxiety. And I learned that sometimes a grown woman can urinate approximately 510ml all at once. Both valuable lessons.
Social anxiety just follows you anywhere. I will be honest with you, person reading this: I am writing this on a train. I had carefully picked a window seat from home. I know the anxiety will creep in if I don't sit by a window. But at the last minute they announced to us that the seat reservations were no longer valid. People started running towards the train.
"If I were to sum it up, anxiety is peeing in places you're not meant to pee and not peeing in places you're meant to pee."
I considered going home, thereby missing a gig that will pay my rent and my flight to Denmark to see my family. All because of two hours on a train not in the window seat.
I have grabbed an aisle seat. I am sitting next to an older man on my right who keeps talking to a couple about his many boats, and a very beautiful couple on my left who came in a bit too late and therefore have to stand.
I am writing this while doing every single breathing exercise I have ever learned. In through the nose, out through the mouth. Focus on your stomach rising and falling. Breathe in for seven seconds, hold for four seconds, breathe out for seven seconds. I am not even sure those are the right numbers, but I have to do it so as not to freak out.
I am going on tour with my standup show in less than two weeks. A tour of the UK. Seventeen dates, 17 places, 17 shows. I am overtly and massively excited. I can do comedy. I can stand on the stage. There is no anxiety on stage. I have space around me, people in my vision, a microphone and stories I love sharing with an audience.
As I was planning the tour, I remembered the Ben & Jerry's piss-jar. I am not the only one to piss in places people shouldn't piss in just because of anxiety. I realised that when I wrote an article a few months ago about hiding in bathrooms when I feel anxious. Ironically, not to pee.
If I were to sum it up, anxiety is peeing in places you're not meant to pee and not peeing in places you're meant to pee. I think all psychologists would agree with me on that.
The response I got was incredible. So many people related, so many people are, at this very moment, sitting in toilets not peeing but hiding. I was so happy to know that. I am not alone.
"Breathe in for seven seconds, hold for four seconds, breathe out for seven seconds. I am not even sure those are the right numbers, but I have to do it so as not to freak out."
So I decided to make my tour anxiety-safe. Yes, you are right, that is not a phrase. I just made it up and it's probably problematic and wrong. But this is what I wish to do:
If anything regarding a comedy show makes you anxious, you can drop me an e-mail and we will figure out a solution.
Does it make you anxious to sit near the front or do you have to sit near the exit? I will get you the seat you need.
Need to access the room before the big (hopefully) crowd? I will come out and walk you in and help you find your seat. We do not even have to make small talk.
Need to stand near the back? I will sort that.
I will do this on a case by case basis. Everyone's needs will be different. I also wholeheartedly promise to not do any audience interaction. I am more scared of you than you are of me.
If you have any special needs, my email address is [email protected] which, yes, is a horrid email address. It is nevertheless the one I will respond to. I am also currently talking to venues about making all of their toilets gender neutral.
As soon as I have information about which venues are anxiety-safe and have gender-neutral loos and wheelchair access, I will post the list on sofiehagen.com. If you want to get a ticket for the tour, also go to sofiehagen.com. If you want to see what a website looks like if Sofie Hagen has made it her very self, also go to sofiehagen.com. You don't even have to buy a ticket for the tour.

Re: Financing with hard money or investorsLUCKIEST Apr 14, 2009 5:50 PM (in response to CashFlow77)Financing, Welcome Mikail
Tell me more. How long have you been real estate investors.
Do you have a business plan that I can read??
Talk to me, LUCKIEST
Re: Financing with hard money or investorsCashFlow77 Apr 14, 2009 10:25 PM (in response to LUCKIEST)Hey Luckiest,
Basically what we do is purchase REO homes, short slaes, auctions, and hardship homes. We find these homes through a very selective process we have developed with our team, which is based on the condition of the property,the status, price, age, size, and the availability of other homes in the area. We would then negotiate a price where we can buy up to 25-75% below market value. Afterward we would fix up the property with our professional contractors that we know and trust, going through the home repairing any and all problems, such as plumbing, electric, framing, bathrooms, landscape, and mainly the kitchen. Repairs on each home are anywhere from $5,000- $30,000. All of the bids for repairs and expenses are done before the property is even purchased.
Depending on the property, we would sell the home at 0-15% below market. That way the loan is secured on the property and if the market falls a little it wouldn't hurt the sale because we are still selling under the market. In most cases we make anywhere from $8000 to $30,000. However it is not unheard of to make significantly more. It always depends on how much the buyer is willing to pay in that certain area.
In most areas the market is down, however people are still buying homes because they need a place to live. In any case the home is always available to be put up for rent or lease. There are many different exit strategies.
My partner and I work with individuals that have been doing this for several years and have been very profitable, however we are looking to get our own investors to work with us. If you would like to get in touch email me at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 208-315-4383. We are based in Boise, ID area.
Re: Financing with hard money or investorsrgershenuk Apr 19, 2009 5:25 PM (in response to CashFlow77)I have just seen your post and write in response to it to notify you of my interest in providing the fund needed for your business.
Please contact me through either email on email@example.com or telephone on +447035956480 if you have not gotten the funds yet so that we can discuss your business and the possibilities of providing the required funds.
Yours truly,

Reply To: [Legion] Spirit Link Totem targeting/positioning
Homepage › Forums › Shaman lounge › [Legion] Spirit Link Totem targeting/positioning › Reply To: [Legion] Spirit Link Totem targeting/positioning
The fact that you have to place it on the ground before summoning it makes it less reactive and intuitive to use as I see it. Spirit Link is one of the strongest (if not the strongest) cooldown available and being able to use it on the spot as damage is inbound only underlines this.
To me personally it's a massive loss not being able to just drop it at your feet while still paying full attention to health bars and their fluctuation. It will move more towards the proactive design where I am a massive fan of the reactive part (which I feel is the current model for SLT). One way to get around this would be to make a macro function to drop it at your feet if you want to, and then simply have modifiers to determine if you need to place it at a distance or drop it at your feet.
I can't count the amount of times, where I've instinctively dropped the totem after an unexpected hit and saved either a fellow healer, a tank or a dps from sudden death. This where I feel it will lose impact/value.
I am going to miss the ability to 'double-dip' from this ability too. I have enjoyed abusing it by first equalizing the range and then secondly the melee group, or using it on two marks for mythic Archimonde. It will straight up lose value to me because of TP being scrapped from the game.
Due to this I find it difficult to see this change in particular, as anything near quality-of-life. Not only will are we limited to a single spot for SLT, but we will also lose the ability to relocate all other totems as well.
The only scenario where this will be a 'step-up' is when you are in range with nobody around, (as in no beneficial effect of dropping SLT on you) but you have to drop it on tanks/melee to give damage reduction or save tanks.
I don't mind scrapping some of the useless spells (looking at you shields) but I hate to see something like this go, it added finesse to all totems.

Euromeetings, the organization representing Europes top track events, "will continue to recommend that members do not invite athletes who we believe cause disrepute to our meetings and our sport.SAN DIEGO -- Its been a bumpy road for the Los Angeles Dodgers since they returned stateside after beginning the season with two wins against Arizona in Australia. Reigning NL Cy Young Award winner Clayton Kershaw is expected to miss the bulk of April with a swollen muscle in his left upper back, and now reliever Brian Wilson will be placed on the disabled list with what manager Don Mattingly said is nerve irritation in his right elbow. The Dodgers did manage to beat the San Diego Padres 3-2 on Tuesday after Kenley Jansen escaped a bases-loaded jam in the ninth inning. Yasiel Puig hit a 410-foot drive for a two-run homer and Zack Greinke threw five strong innings to win his season debut. Mattingly said Wilson had an MRI on Monday that showed nerve irritation. Mattingly said there was no sign of ligament damage. Wilson had reconstructive surgery in April 2012. "The MRI overall was not good news, but it was better than it could have been," Mattingly said. "I was pleased and relieved that it wasnt something bigger than what it is. We feel like its something that just needs to calm down and then kind of built going the other direction." The Dodgers bullpen has had a rough go since returning from Sydney. Wilson allowed three runs in the eighth inning of Sunday nights 3-1 loss, and Jansen had to dance out of trouble in the ninth on Tuesday. The Padres loaded the bases with two out on singles by Yonder Alonso and Will Venable, and a walk to Yasmani Grandal. Jansen then struck out pinch-hitter Nick Hundley to earn his second save in two chances. Mattingly thinks the bullpen is going to be fine over time. "Weve had one bad inning, really. Were getting it done, but its just a little rough right now," he said. "Its not as smooth as it can be. Confident with our guys I think as we get into the normal work, normal days, well be OK." Carl Crawford started the game with a base hit and Puig then drove a 2-1 pitch from Ian Kennedy into the balcony on the third deck of the Western Metal Supply Co. Building in the left-field corner. It was his first homer. "At the time, when it happens so fast, I dont know if I caught too much plate," Kennedy said. "He did a really good job of getting his hands up. Hes a really good hitter. Puig did a good job of hitting what I thought was a good pitch.ddddddddddddBut hes one of the best hitters in the National League." It was the second time Kennedy faced the Dodgers since June 11, when, while with Arizona, he hit Puig and Greinke with pitches, inciting a brawl at Dodger Stadium. Kennedy was suspended 10 games. He was traded to the Padres on July 31. Greinke retired his first 10 batters before Seth Smith homered into a party deck atop the right-field wall, trimming San Diegos deficit to 3-1. Smith earned the start in left field against the right-handed Greinke after homering to start an eighth-inning rally in a 3-1 win Sunday night. Greinke (1-0) went five innings, allowing two runs and two hits while striking out five and walking two. The Dodgers took a 3-0 lead in the fourth when Dee Gordon singled in Juan Uribe. Uribe doubled to right-centre with two outs and took third on second baseman Jedd Gyorkos error. Gyorko had gone into the shallow outfield to take the throw from right fielder Chris Denorfia. He turned and started to throw, but apparently realized there was no play at third and tried to hold up, losing his grip on the ball. That allowed Uribe to advance. San Diego pulled to 3-2 in the fifth when Gyorko drew a leadoff walk and eventually scored on wild pitch. Kennedy (0-1) allowed three runs and five hits in five innings. Greinke was making his third start in San Diego since the Dodgers and Padres brawled here on April 11. That melee started after Greinke hit Carlos Quentin with a pitch. Quentin rushed the mound and slammed into Greinke, whose left collarbone was broken. Quentin started this season on the disabled list with a bone bruise in his left knee. NOTES: Kershaw wont be ready to come off the disabled list when hes eligible to be activated on April 14. The Dodgers said Kershaw will slowly work his way back for the next two to three weeks. He will then be re-evaluated to determine when he can start throwing at increased velocity. Kershaw will likely have to make a rehab start before he can return, Mattingly said. ... The series concludes Wednesday night when Dan Haren of the Dodgers and Tyson Ross of the Padres make their 2014 debuts. ... To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Petco Park opening, David Wells (first start), Brian Giles (first hit) and Mark Loretta (first Padres home run) threw out ceremonial first pitches.

Print Recipe
This flavourful flan will definitely impress - brought to you by Australia's most celebrated baker, Maggie Beer.
Preheat oven to 175°C fan forced.
Place 120g hazelnuts in a small sandwich cake pan and toast in oven for 8-10 minutes or until golden. Cool.
Meanwhile, in a large stock pan bring 4 litres of water to the boil. Keep warm.
For the custard, in a food processor, combine cream cheese, sour cream and eggs and pulse until smooth. Add evaporated milk, coffee vino cotto and condensed milk and pulse to combine. Pour custard into a large jug and set aside. Using a spoon skim off any foam that surfaces on top.
For the chocolate cake batter, place 60g of the toasted hazelnuts (reserving the remaining nuts) into the mini chopper and blend with stick blender until finely chopped, leaving a little texture. Transfer hazelnuts into a medium bowl.
Sift cocoa, flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda into the nuts, stir to combine.
Using a stand mixer, fitted with paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until pale (scrape the bowl as necessary). Add egg and beat to combine. Using a spatula, gently fold in the orange zest and salt followed by ½ the dry mixture and ½ the buttermilk, finish with the remaining dry mix and buttermilk.
Transfer mixture to a large disposable piping bag.
To assemble the flan, grease a 2.5 litre heritage bundt pan with canola oil spray. Using scissors, cut the tip of the piping bag off and pipe the cake batter into the base of the pan. (Do not push batter into the ridges). Pour custard into the pan over the back of a large kitchen spoon. Cover the bundt pan with foil.
Place a clean folded tea towel in the base of a deep baking dish to cover. Place the bundt pan into the baking dish. Place baking dish into the oven and half-fill with boiling water. Bake flan for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Meanwhile, for the candied orange, place a greased wire rack over an aluminium oven tray.
Combine sugar and water in a medium saucepan and stir over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil. Meanwhile, thinly slice orange into 3mm-thick rounds. Reduce syrup to a simmer and add orange slices. Simmer in syrup for 6-10 minutes or until pith is translucent.
Lay orange slices flat on the rack and bake underneath the flan at 175°C for 20-30 minutes or until crisp and candied, turning slices over once. Set candied orange aside on the rack at room temperature to cool and firm up.
Meanwhile, for the caramelised hazelnuts, crush the remaining hazelnuts coarsely, in the sandwich cake pan, using the end of a rolling pin.
Place sugar and water in a medium saucepan and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves.
Simmer over medium heat until thickened and caramel colour, then remove from heat and add butter. Stir to combine. Add hazelnuts and salt, stir to coat. Transfer nuts to a baking paper-lined tray and set aside to cool. When set, crush coarsely with the end of a rolling pin.
Meanwhile, for the orange syrup, place the glucose, sugar, water, rind and juice into a small saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil. Reduce to low heat and simmer for 6-10 minutes or until thickened. Pour syrup into a small sandwich cake pan. Place on a wire cake rack in the freezer for 10 minutes to cool.
For the flan, remove baking dish from the oven and remove flan from the water. Set flan aside for 5 minutes. Refrigerate flan for 15 minutes to cool. Invert flan onto serving plate and remove bundt pan.
Just before serving, drizzle with orange syrup to glaze the top of the flan. Halve the candied oranges and lay in the top ridges of the flan. Scatter caramelised hazelnuts onto the flan.

Subject(s): Legislation to strip terrorists of citizenship
Location: Canberra
As all of you I'm sure know, the absolute first priority of government is the safety of our community and as I'm sure all of you are now only too well aware, our country does face a serious terrorist threat, particularly over the last 12 months with the rise and rise of the Daesh Islamist death cult in the Middle East and its consistent campaign to reach out to vulnerable and susceptible people here in Australia.
As all of you I'm sure now know, some 120 Australians are known to be fighting with the death cult and its affiliates in the Middle East. Some 160 Australians are known to be supporting them with financing and recruitment and we are pretty confident that about 30 Australians have so far been killed fighting for the death cult in the Middle East.
Our intention always is as far as we humanly can, to stop people from becoming terrorists in the first place. If people have become terrorists, our intention as far as we humanly can is to stop them from coming back and that's what today's announcement is all about: it's about giving the Government additional mechanisms for stopping hardened terrorists returning to Australia.
As all of you I'm sure would know, under Section 35 of the Citizenship Act 1948, someone automatically loses Australian citizenship if he or she is a dual national and fights with the army of a country at war with us. So, what we are effectively doing is updating Section 35 of the Citizenship Act to reflect modern conditions where often people don't go and fight against us in a foreign army; they fight against us in a terrorist group.
Effectively, what we are doing with this legislation is creating two new circumstances under which dual nationals who are terrorists will forfeit their citizenship. One is renunciation by conduct, so if you engage in terrorism against Australia, as is currently the case with Section 35 in respect of a foreign army, you will automatically forfeit your citizenship. The other is revocation by conviction, so if you are convicted of a terrorist offence, again, there will be an assumption that your Australian citizenship is forfeited, should you be a dual national.
So, as far as is humanly possible, the forfeiture of citizenship by terrorists who are dual nationals happens automatically by action of law.
The process from here is that the legislation, which was considered by the National Security Committee of the Cabinet yesterday and by the Cabinet yesterday and was considered by the Party Room this morning will be introduced into the Parliament first thing tomorrow morning. I have had discussions with the Leader of the Opposition overnight and the Opposition will be formally briefed on the legislation tomorrow. That is the process from here.
There are a couple of matters that I should probably raise at this point. First, we will ask the Joint Standing Committee on Intelligence and Security to consider whether there should be retrospective operation of the new law should it pass the Parliament. As drafted it's prospective, but given that we have a number of dual citizens currently in jail after terrorist convictions, the Committee should consider whether it should have retrospective operation at least in those cases.
There is a further very large question and that is what do we do about the 50 per cent or so of those Australians who are currently known to be fighting overseas with terrorist armies who are not dual citizens. This is one of those issues that will be considered by the Ruddock - Fierravanti-Wells consultation process now taking place and I would expect that in the months to come the Government will have further legislation in this area.
Before I close, I want to say thank you very much to my ministerial colleagues. There is no one in this Parliament more committed to the safety of our community and the security of our borders than Minister Dutton. Peter, you've done an outstanding job with a difficult subject and, George, there is no finer legal mind in the Parliament than the Attorney-General, Senator Brandis QC. These two Ministers have worked extremely well together to get us to this position.
I want to close with this: as Australians, we will never, ever, sacrifice our freedoms, but we will defend them. We will defend them and that's what this legislation is all about.
PM, thank you very much, George, thank you ladies and gentlemen for being here. Since September of last year we have had two terrorist attacks in Australia and the authorities have thwarted six attacks. It is true at the same time that since last September, 23 Australians have been charged in relation to terrorist-related matters. So, the fact is for us, for all Western democracies, this is a very serious and increasing threat, and the privilege of Australian citizenship is to be taken very seriously, and the Australian Government has achieved a balance in terms of the provisions that we put forward today.
As the Prime Minister points out, there's been a lot of work and a very thorough process that's been gone through over the course of the last couple of months. We have provided in the legislation that will be introduced into the Parliament tomorrow, a principle of renunciation by conduct. So, the person's conduct, the acts that they are involved in, they deliver a renunciation themselves of their own citizenship and there is for a conviction a similar outcome.
It's also important that we have been able to capture people who are not only fighting for, but serving in a prescribed terrorist organisation, and there is, as a result of that action as well, by their own actions, by their own conduct, a renunciation in effect of their citizenship.
Prime Minister, Peter. The legislation that Mr Dutton will introduce tomorrow morning into the House of Representatives has been the subject of a very, very thorough process of consideration. The policy outcomes, though, have never been in doubt, as the Prime Minister has said. It is our obligation – our ultimate obligation – as a Government to keep our community safe. It's also our obligation as a Government to do so consistently with the rule of law, and within the constitution and after a very thorough process of development of this legislation that has involved consultation among others with the Solicitor-General, I'm satisfied that this legislation achieves that objective as well.
For dual nationals here in Australia, could they lose their citizenship without a conviction, as was flagged last week?
There are two broad circumstances under which people will forfeit their citizenship. The first is renunciation by conduct; the second is revocation by conviction. Now, it could happen, either of these circumstances could apply to people onshore or offshore, but much more typically, it would be renunciation by conduct offshore, and revocation by conviction onshore.
I want to stress that this is about terrorists – it's about terrorists. Now, it so happens that if you are a dual citizen, there is a particular action that we can take against you if you are a terrorist, but this is about targeting terrorists. It's not about having a go at dual citizens, because dual citizenship has been an honourable condition since the Howard government changed the rules back in 2002, and millions of Australians either are or could be dual citizens for perfectly good reasons. Often we benefit greatly from the fact that some of our people are dual citizens and I have not the slightest issue with dual citizenship itself.
My issue is with terrorism and this Government will do everything we humanly can to protect our country against terrorism.
Prime Minister, the renunciation by conduct – what kind of conduct can be covered there? Does it have to be like Section 35 now, taking up arms or can it be financing terrorism, recruiting for terrorist groups?
There will be a series of provisions in the legislation to specify the kind of conduct that is covered. But in broad terms, it is serious involvement with a terrorist group.
Prime Minister, just to clarify that point can I just ask: you say it's automatic, this renunciation by conduct, but can you just clarify surely there has to be some administrative decision taken – so, what is the process for such a declaration to be made?
And, look, before I get to that I should say that the legislation will go into the Parliament tomorrow and obviously it will immediately go off to the Joint Standing Committee on Intelligence and Security for thorough scrutiny. I have to say that all of our legislation thus far has benefitted from the scrutiny of that committee and I would expect that this legislation will benefit from the scrutiny of that committee, including consideration of the retrospective element. So, just repeat the question.
What's the actual process for that?
Ok, if based on appropriate advice, the Minister becomes aware of a forfeiture under the Act, the Minister will inform as best he or she can, the individual in question, that citizenship is forfeited under the relevant section of the Act.
Prime Minister, one of the curious things about Section 35 – I'm sure you're aware – is that even though it's so famous, it's actually never been used. So, my question's probably better directed at the Attorney-General. With the Solicitor-General's advice, did he go to the effectiveness of the current regime and was the problem that he found out about Section 35 and its replacement, this issue of judicial review?
If I could just offer a thought here, thanks. Look, an old law is a good law. This law has stood for almost 70 years unchallenged and it is now a settled part of the Australian legal system. I would refer any of you who are particularly interested in this to the speech of the then minister Arthur Calwell, when introducing the Citizenship Act back in our Parliament in I think 1948. So, this is a provision of long standing, and old laws…
No, no, no, just because it has not yet been used does not mean that it is in some way redundant. It's so effective, you might say, Andrew. It has been so effective that it hasn't had to be used and we will develop it by bringing it into the modern era.
Now, George, do you wish to add anything?
Just to add to your remarks, Prime Minister – of course, Andrew, it's completely wrong to say that a provision that's not used is redundant or ineffective as you seem to be implying. In fact, in its very limited form at the moment, Section 35 applies to Australians who take up arms against Australia in the army of a nation with which Australia is at war. I'm unaware of any occasions when that has in fact occurred since 1948, but what we are aware of, as the Prime Minister has said, is more than 120 Australians now engaged in terrorist activities fighting on behalf of ISIL, not to mention those Australians who we know have engaged in terrorist activities onshore.
Prime Minister, with regard to retrospectivity – and Mr Dutton, you can answer this – how far back would the retrospectivity extend and roughly how many people do you have in mind, if this were to happen?
At the moment, we aren't proposing that it be of retrospective operation. As the legislation stands, that will go into the Parliament tomorrow, it will be of prospective operation only. So, people to fall foul of this legislation would need to be engaged in terrorist activities from the date the legislation comes into effect.
This is, nevertheless, something that will be considered. We believe this is right and proper that this matter of retrospective operation should be considered by the Joint Standing Committee because there are people who are dual nationals currently in jail on terrorist offences and at some point in the future, they'll be released and the question will then arise should they be deported. Now, if the legislation passes the Parliament with retrospective effect, obviously, that would be a possibility. So, it is a matter for the consideration of the Committee.
Prime Minister, if the legislation passes, though, there are people who are now fighting in that circumstance. Do you have a number on how many of those would fall under this law?
The best advice we have is that up to 50 per cent of those who are currently fighting in the Middle East with various terrorist armies are dual nationals.
Prime Minister, do you plan to seek some bilateral agreements with countries to ensure that they are not left stateless, these people that we strip of their dual nationality? And will you be trying to seek some other extradition treaties or anything of that nature?
We are not going to overcomplicate this matter. We are going to act very firmly in Australia's national interests and it is absolutely in our national interest that wherever we reasonably can, we stop hardened terrorists from coming back to our country where they could be at loose on our streets plotting harm to our citizens. So, this is the overriding objective: to try to stop hardened terrorists from coming back to our country. The point I keep making is that if you are a terrorist and you are a dual national, we will do our best to strip the citizenship off you.
Now, obviously, we have other countries with which we work very closely – our five eyes partners – we work very closely with them. We work very closely with a number of regional countries, with a number of friendly countries in the Middle East, Europe and elsewhere. Obviously, we will talk to other countries and let them know what we are doing, but in the end, the Australian Government will operate very firmly in defence of our national interests and it is in our national interests that as far as is humanly possible we stop terrorists from being loose on our streets.
Prime Minister, on that, how does the legislation actually define terrorism? I'm thinking particularly of examples of people who have gone overseas and fought with the Kurds. Is it linked to prescribed organisations, is that how you define terrorism and if they are cancelled overseas, is there any legal redress for them to seek a court to look at that later?
As you know, there are a number of organisations prescribed at law by the Attorney – I think there's 21 from memory. The legislation will give the Minister for Border Protection the opportunity to specify from amongst that list terrorist organisations for the purposes of this legislation, because some of those currently prescribed, while they're terrorist organisations and we don't like them, are not particularly aiming at us. So, this Minister will have a chance to make a selection out of this Minister's list of terrorist organisations and if we believe, on appropriate advice, that the citizenship of a dual national is forfeit by virtue of participation in serious terrorist activity under the law, well, the relevant notification will go out.
The role of the Minister is not adjudication; it's notification. That's the role of the Minister. It is the law – the law itself – it will be the operation of the law that actually strips people of their citizenship rather than the ministerial decision as such. If, however, the person so affected believes that there is some problem, this matter will be legally reviewable, as we have said all along.
Prime Minister, the revocation for conviction in Australia is dealing with the home-grown threat. Can you talk us through how that would work? Obviously not the retrospectivity that would happen, but currently now, how would that work and what would they need to be convicted of and how would they lose their citizenship and presumably be deported?
Again, there are a range of terrorist offences that will be specified in the legislation, and if someone is convicted of one or more of those offences, well, then their citizenship, other than in circumstances where the Minister believes that for various reasons it would be in our national interests not to, will be forfeited.
Prime Minister, do you accept that this is a long way back from the ministerial discretion power that you were talking about initially and that perhaps the Government had misinterpreted Brett Walker's recommendations?
I think if I may say so, with respect to a distinguished Senior Counsel, he's changed his mind. That's what's happened. For all sorts of reasons he's changed his mind and I don't want to speculate on what those reasons might be because it was a very, very clear and unambiguous recommendation and his report back in March, I think, of last year, that there should be the capacity for the Minister on national interest grounds to strip terrorists who are dual nationals of their citizenship...
[inaudible] at this point yourself?
But again, what have we all along wanted to do here? We have wanted to strip citizenship from terrorists who are dual nationals. That's what we have wanted to do and we have wanted to be able to do so without needing, if you like, a prior judicial process – without needing a prior judicial process – and that is exactly what we believe we have achieved through this legislation.
Mr Abbott, nevertheless, you have stepped back from ministerial discretion, which Peter Dutton was arguing for I think as late as last week very vigorously, saying that it was necessary. Do you now think that the original submission should have had more consultation before it went to Cabinet, more input from Senator Brandis so that you could have avoided what seemed to have been a lapse in judgment about process?
I don't accept the premises, Michelle, of your question. Can I say that this matter one way or another has had an exhaustive discussion and consultation both within and without the Government. This matter was first considered to the best of my recollection by the NSC in the first half of last year. At the time, we decided that it was not to be proceeded with, but, of course, a lot of things changed since then.
We had the rise in the terror threat level, we had the two terrorist incidents here in Australia, we've had the six disruptions of imminent terrorist attacks here in Australia, we have had the very large numbers of Australians going overseas to fight with the death cult and a sensible Government has an evolving response to an evolving situation. As this situation has evolved, we have constantly changed and lifted our response. So that's the first point I would make.
Again, I just want to say that all along, what we wanted to do was to create a situation where it was possible to stop terrorists from returning to Australia without a prior judicial process. That was always our objective and I believe that is exactly what we have achieved in a way which I think is very legally strong.
What's your response to reports overnight of the deaths of Mohamed Elomar and Khaled Sharrouf?
Look, both of them were terrorists. Both of them are evil. They are both evil terrorists. Now, I can't finally confirm any outcome, but I just want to say that both of them were out and out terrorists and the warning that we have been giving to Australians is: don't go overseas to join a terrorist army. You are putting yourself in harm's way and it may well be that serious harm has come to these two individuals.
[inaudible] someone's renounced citizenship by conduct and brings that recommendation to Mr Dutton and can I also ask are you still attracted to the idea of stripping sole citizenship from those who can claim it from other countries?
The second part of your question, Michael is a matter that will be considered as we've made clear all along as part of the citizenship consultation process, which Philip Ruddock and Connie Fierravanti-Wells are currently leading. So, that's something which the Government will reconsider, along with what might possibly be done in respect of people fighting with terrorist armies overseas who are wholly and solely Australian citizens. That matter, too, will be considered in due course after the consultation is complete.
The actual forfeiture of citizenship envisaged by this legislation will take place by operation of law. It will take place by operation of law in precisely the same way that Section 35 has long envisaged that dual citizens would lose their Australian nationality under particular conditions. If they elect to do particular things, their citizenship would automatically be forfeited. So, this will take place by operation of law, obviously it would be the Minister, in this case Minister Dutton, who notified individuals that by virtue of the operation of the relevant section of the Citizenship Act, their citizenship had been forfeited.
If a person's citizenship is revoked onshore and they can't be deported for whatever reason, perhaps the other country won't take them back, is indefinite detention the other option?
Well, look, that's a bridge that we would cross if and when we came to it. But the point that I make is that under no circumstance will this Government resile from reasonable lawful action which keeps our community safe.
Do you think that crocodile safari hunting should be allowed across Northern Australia and why do you think your Indigenous Affairs Minister is so keen on it?
Look, I'm not going to answer for Nigel. All I'm going to indicate is that as far as the Commonwealth Government is concerned, there are no plans to change any relevant law in this area.
Just a question on the children of terrorists. Could they, too, have their citizenship stripped because of the activities of their parents?
Well, they will be subject to the law. They will be subject to the law. And the law will be enforced with its full rigor by this Government to keep our community safe. So, anyone who falls foul of this legislation will be dealt with, with the full rigor of this legislation.
Just to clarify something you said, you said earlier that in the first half of last year you decided not to proceed with citizenship changes. What was the reason for that decision at that time?
I'm not going to give an endless commentary on process. All I'm saying is that this broad subject has been a matter that has been very, very thoroughly discussed, very, very thoroughly consulted upon, both within Government and without government. And as I said, the culmination of the process, the culmination of a very long and quite exhaustive process, was the decision of the NSC yesterday. NSC decisions, as you know, are not required to go to the full Cabinet, but I thought given the significance of this, it ought to go to the full Cabinet. It did, it was duly endorsed by the full Cabinet and it's gone to the Party Room today.
You apparently had a colourful description of ABC's Q&A in today's Party Room meeting. Is that a description you stand by publicly, one? And, two, as you make laws like this, isn't that the very time that Australians ought to be hearing from radical people in our community and their points of view even although we might very severely disagree with what they have to say?
Well, Tim, I'm certainly not going to repeat things that were said in the confidentiality of the Party Room. As you know, the Party Room is sacred space and what goes in the Party Room stays in the Party Room, other than formal decisions which are subsequently announced such as the decision we took today.
On the subject of last night's Q&A, what our national broadcaster has done is give a platform to a convicted criminal and terrorist sympathiser. They've given this individual, this disgraceful individual, a platform and in so doing, I believe the national broadcaster has badly let us down.
I think many, many millions of Australians would feel betrayed by our national broadcaster right now, and I think that the ABC does have to have a long, hard look at itself, and to answer a question which I have posed before: who's side are you on? Who's side are you on here? Fair enough, we all believe in free speech, but in the end we have to make judgments and I think that the ABC made a very, very serious misjudgement last night.
Thank you so much.
