	Print Article: It's no longer a cultural sin to live overseas and still call Australia home
		Any adverse attention he might have received for his BBC documentary on Australia and his comments during a West Australian court case was compounded by his sin of residing overseas.
		It turns out Australians are far more sanguine than we might have expected about their non-resident countrymen and women: 91 per cent of the 1000 respondents agreed with the positive statement that expatriates are "adventurous people prepared to try their luck and have a go overseas", and only 6 per cent disagreed.
		Australia's diaspora is big - nearly 1 million strong.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Australia
		The "Holy House of Australia", with its small adjoining grounds and the sum of £1,000 was devoted to religion by Davis, and on its site now stands a fine church dedicated to God under the invocation of the national apostle of Ireland.
		Australia was gradually rolling out of the sullen gloom of a penal settlement, and emerging into the condition of a freeman's country.
		The origin of the native tribes of Australia is one of the unsolved riddles of ethnology.

	Advance Australia Fair - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Advance Australia Fair is the official national anthem of Australia.
		It was adopted as the national anthem by a 1984 decision of the Labor government of Bob Hawke, although it required a proclamation by the Governor-General for the decision to become official.
		Nevertheless, its long-lasting popularity suggests that other Australians have a lingering sense of identification with the romantic figure of the swagman, his precarious existence, his stubborn defiance of authority, his working-class status and the fact that he is defying the odds.

		Australia has some of the most beautiful birds you could see anywhere, among them the pink and grey Galahs (parrots).
		We do have some covens in Australia, and throughout the year a lot of group gatherings are held, however these never really seem to be widely publicised.
		This is either because they are still finding their path and/or because it's hard to find the time to dedicate to other people.

	I still call Australia home?
		It's the driest inhabited continent, and what looks 'normal' out there (brown grass, sparse and struggling shrubbery, leafless grey and brown trees that look to be in their death-throes, cracked and parched earth) might seem desolate and dying to people elsewhere.
		Perhaps this is partly because I wasn't in Australia when the attack occurred, and perhaps it's partly because I've "been there" during the whole September 11 thing and, after an initial rush of emotion and hope that the tragedy would at least change the world for the better...
		Australia, meanwhile, is feeling more Culturally Imperialised than Brazil, France and Russia, and only slightly less so than Korea and Indonesia are (I'd like to meet the 1% of Australian respondants that thinks the US has too little influence...).

	Still calling Australia home? Children's Constructions of Place and Identity.
		Media representations of Australia as a country to which we all 'naturally' belong are centred around particular versions of place and people - the laid back casual sports-loving humorous Paul Hogan and his lookalikes, the majestic scenery of the outback and the beach, the universal friendliness of the people and so on.
		The concern with the environment was at times intermeshed with the perception of Australia as a place of 'open spaces', room to move as distinct from the cluttered tight and cramped conditions they believed to be a feature of other parts of the world.
		Their Australia is by and large an easy going happy place which has gained their active approval albeit in ways that do not ask much of them.

	Why Nazis still call Australia home (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Since 1947, when the first Nazi war criminals arrived in Australia, “successive governments have knowingly allowed hundreds of men responsible for the cruel imprisonment, torture, rape and mass execution of tens of thousands of innocent civilians to make Australia home”.
		Australia's attorney-general Bob Menzies in the 1930s was an admirer of the Nazi state as a bulwark against “atheistic Bolshevism”.
		Australia remains the only Western country with a significant Nazi war criminal problem which has no legislation to allow the deportation of suspects for trial in their homelands.

		The name "Australia" is derived from the words that the Europeans used to call this land mass : "Terra Australis Incognita", which is latin for "Unknown South Land".
		When the Brits arrived, they could not call it an "invasion" because, legally, in British legal terms, that would mean admitting and recognising that the land had "belonged" to the natives.

		I love to see the shots in the Telstra “Making Life Easier” campaign show the diversity of Australia, and in the same way, I love to see QANTAS visualise “I Still Call Australia Home” through spectacular scenery from Australia and all over the world.
		The way they shoot it is the kids sing it at double speed, therefore when they slow it down the kids are singing at normal speed but the background is a slowmo.
		Overseas for a year or two travelling and working and got this song stuck in my head the other day, would feel a bit silly singin it out loud if i was at home but it was perfect being so far from home.

		I feel these TVCs capture so much of the essence of Australia’s quirky culture and language: a language full of cheeky understatement, invention and colour.

		However, I had a lot more confidence in the code created, and was relieved when the tests started to fail unexpectedly.
