The Lindsay pamphlet scandal is an Australian electoral scandal in
which Liberal Party volunteers distributed fake election pamphlets,
claiming to be from an Islamic organisation that was later found not
to exist.
The incident made national and even international headlines on
November 21, 2007, four days before the 2007 Australian Federal
election.[1]
The retiring Liberal member of parliament representing the federal
Division of Lindsay, Jackie Kelly, was forced to explain why her
husband, local orthodontist Gary Clark, was caught distributing the
pamphlets with four other people.[
2] The pamphlets, claiming to be from "The Islamic Australia
Federation", thanked the Australian Labor Party (ALP) for supporting
terrorists involved with the 2002 Bali bombings.[3] The scandal
disrupted the election campaign of Prime Minister John

A FEDERAL Liberal candidate's husband has been convicted and fined
$750 for handing out racist leaflets in the lead-up to last year's
election.
Greg Alex Chijoff,pleaded guilty to one count of distributing the
unauthorised leaflets in the western Sydney seat of Lindsay.
Mrs Chijoff had hoped to secure the seat for the party, replacing
sitting Liberal member Jackie Kelly, but the scam was the final nail
in the ailing campaign of the Howard government.
Chijoff's lawyer Oliver Hagen submitted his client had admitted to his
involvement immediately,.
He had since resigned his membership of the Liberal Party and wrote a
letter of apology to its state director just days after the incident,
Mr Hagen said.
"
To admit to the crime was a "measure of the man", he submitted.
At the Downing Centre Local Court this afternoon, Magistrate Ian
Barnett convicted Chijoff and ordered he pay $750, plus court costs of
$70.

Policies produced in a puff of smoke ...
Samuel Taylor Coleridge produced the famous poem Kubla Khan while in
an opium-induced state. Now Mark Latham admits he was a dope smoker. I
can just see it now ... after polishing off Karl Marx's epic communist
manifesto Das Kapital Mark lit up some party cones, inhaled,
pontificated, then produced the bestseller Civilising Global Capital.
I shudder what mind-altering substances he may turn to in order to
produce his eagerly awaited economic and taxation policies.

Greetings all!
I need a little hand here...
I would like to automate a CA/400 connection to the AS/400. I have
drive
I: on a Win95 PC connecting the AS400\QDLS\LIBRARY, but the damned
signon propmt box always comes on when the PC gets rebooted. Anyway to
automate this? I've tries the LOGONUSR.EXE tool on the CA/400
developer's site... It appears to execute, but how does Explorer use
it
to map a drive through QDLS? Any ideas, anybody? All and any help
greatly appreciated!
