Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery The Sydney Harbour Scissors New South Wales State Parliament House, Sydney, Australia. 1932 was a troubled year in Sydney, with the social and economic hardship of the worldwide economic depression, and political turmoil with the State Government defying the Commonwealth Government., refusing to make interest payments on overseas debts. Amidst these bleak days, the opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge on March 19, 1932 – the constant talk and wonder of Sydney since construction began in 1924, would begin a few shining days exuberance, national pride and celebration. / The celebrations were paid for by public fundraising. Even the scissors for the ribbon-cutting ceremony – made by craftsman Les Denham and Norm Neal at the Sydney jewellers Angus and Coote – were donated by British engineering firm, Dorman and Long, builders of the arch. The ribbon would be cut by Labour Premier Jack Lang, opening the way to a huge display of floats, bands, community groups, citizens and the million onlookers who would pour across this new wonder that day. / Moments before Premier Lang advanced to cut the ribbon, a uniformed horseman dashed from the Governor’s escort and cut the ribbon with his sword. The horseman was Francis De Groot, furniture maker and former Captain of the Light Horse, who was a member of the right-wing paramilitary organisation to Lang’s left-wing policies. De Groot was dragged from his horse and taken to a mental institution but released soon afterwards with a modest fine. The ribbon was quickly re-attached and Premier Lang used the scissors to perform the opening as originally intended. / Within two months of the opening, Premier Lang was dismissed from office by the State Governor, Sir Philip Game, who decided that Lang had been acting illegally in refusing to co-operate with Commonwealth. But despite all the controversy, the Bridge instantly became the most enduring and recognisable symbol of Sydney and of a hope for the better future that was to come. / These same scissors have been used by Premiers of New South Wales to open the Sydney Harbour Tunnel in 1992, the Glebe Island Bridge (later renamed the Anzac Bridge) in 1996. They were also used to open the Cross-City Tunnel in 2005.

Just found this group on facebook, it’s campaigning to have Robert Webb dance to ‘What a feeling’ for the Olympic opening ceremony instead of all those ridiculous flashy pyrotechnics. / It’s actually quite a good idea…. View his dance on the Beeb’s Let’s Dance for Comic Relief: here And join the currently small and somewhat pointless group! :D

/ AMERICA, WHY I LOVE HER / Written by John Mitchum Poet/Actor / Song by John Wayne Actor You ask me why I love her? / Well, give me time, and I’ll explain… / Have you seen a Kansas sunset or an Arizona rain? / Have you drifted on a bayou down Louisiana way? / Have you watched the cold fog drifting over San Francisco Bay? / Have you heard a Bobwhite calling in the Carolina pines? / Or heard the bellow of a diesel in the Appalachia mines? / Does the call of Niagara thrill you when you hear her waters roar? / Do you look with awe and wonder at a Massachusetts shore… / Where men who braved a hard new world, first stepped on Plymouth Rock? / And do you think of them when you stroll along a New York City dock? / Have you seen a snowflake drifting in the Rockies…way up high? / Have you seen the sun come blazing down from a bright Nevada sky? / Do you hail to the Columbia as she rushes to the sea… / Or bow your head at Gettysburg…in our struggle to be free? / Have you seen the mighty Tetons? ...Have you watched an eagle soar? / Have you seen the Mississippi roll along Missouri’s shore? / Have you felt a chill at Michigan, when on a winters day, / Her waters rage along the shore in a thunderous display? / Does the word “Aloha”... make you warm? / Do you stare in disbelief When you see the surf come roaring in at Waimea reef? / From Alaska’s gold to the Everglades…from the Rio Grande to Maine… / My heart cries out… my pulse runs fast at the might of her domain. / You ask me why I love her?... I’ve a million reasons why. / My beautiful America… beneath Gods’ wide, wide sky.
