I found old footage of me producing this 1989 recording session with Brian May from #Queen and David Gilmour from #PinkFloyd.

It was for my #RockAidArmenia version of Smoke on the Water.

Some really lovely memories here - I was so happy to get them together in the studio!!
We earned $45.73 with our solar panels and solar battery yesterday.

We have not had an electricity bill in 3 months - we have been getting paid by the electricity company :)

We charge our two EVs daily, and our solar system powers my music studio, our home and two offices. #NetZero

“Since the 9/11 attacks, 400 members of the FDNY have died from illnesses linked to ground zero toxins.”

Firefighters were exposed to toxins on 9/11 that the city knew about but never shared.

Officials say 68 undisclosed boxes with info on the 9/11 toxins were found.

Documents reveal the Bureau of Meteorology's new website could cost $78m — or as much as $150m.

A clearly ridiculous amount.

South Korea is Australia’s third-biggest market for coal burned to generate electricity.

It just announced that it will close all coal-fired power plants by 2040.

Some of our politicians may want to ignore the clean energy transition. But the world is changing.

Opinion | You don’t accidentally allow 60 black-clad Nazis to parade in front of Parliament House holding an antisemitic banner. You allow it because you want to, @marquelawyers.com.au writes.
It's no accident that Nazis rallied in Sydney. Police waved them through — and now Minns wants to punish us all
The existing law in NSW is more than adequate to have avoided the images of Nazis outside state parliament over the weekend.

A must read Reuters investigation 👇

“In Trump 2.0, MAGA-aligned influencers and media emerge as the new mainstream.”

This Reuters investigation says the shift comes as a growing number of social platforms and traditional outlets accommodate Trump.

My unpopular opinion? Tiny homes are expensive trailer homes which avoids the problem. They are a bandage solution to a systemic problem - our collective failure to build solid, high-density, multi-story homes.
Are tiny homes the solution to the housing crisis?
Public interest in tiny homes has skyrocketed in recent years, but experts warn they come with their own problems.

My home NBN connection is really unreliable - I’ve had to drive to where I can get mobile phone coverage to use my mobile as a hot spot for my computer.

Some of the audio files I have to process online are BIG. I hate to think what my data cost will be.

#Optus and the #NBN are so hopeless.

A Mudgee winery employing 65 people has become the largest of its kind in Oz to go completely off the grid.

Battery storage and 400 solar panels power the cellar door, winery, machinery, processing plant and restaurant.

A net zero case study for the Nats??

Had a brain scan today. It definitely shows off my eyes in a very flattering way 😂

10 days ago, I slipped and really banged my head in a hotel bathroom. I’m still getting headaches - but at least I can finally prove that I have a brain!!
