NSW POLICE BULLIES FOR MINING COMPANIES

IMG 8058 Black Monday at Glenugie  

Normally I would agree with keeping it together regarding the usual laws we have to keep.  This hot bed of action at protest sites has shown that law abiding people get hurt.  They get seriously hurt protecting land and water and there is no respect by police to Country or the wishes of the people who country it is.  The Githabul give no permission for any Csg Mining on any of their lands as does Gomiloi too.  Many nations are standing.   

It is very frustrating but we are dealing with obvious corruption in our police force on all levels including Csg Protesting statements. Officers will  have made statements and we will get to see how trustworthy our force is whence we
are privy to what they have documented.

Ballina Station is in the spot light for this at the moment and are they the only station - you would have to be asleep if you thought that the way it was. It isn't and its very wrong. We are human beings not animals.  


I don't want to be a part of any system that condones any of this. Although I dislike being quite poor at times.  I have seen too much to think otherwise about our law enforcement officers. We have blinkers on if we think they are squeaky clean.

Corruption and collusion is still the order of the day! QUOTE Constable Mewing from BALLINA... "We copy each others statements to refresh our memory"! Hello, civilians are not allowed this so why are they?


Under what jurisdiction did  these officers  at Doubtful Creek to use capsicum spray on a man who was clearly not going anywhere.  This is a blatant mis-use of power once again and needs to be handed over to the Police Integrity Commission for review.

Oxytocin is such a magical substance we produce.

New treatment for social problems in autism? Oxytocin improves emotion recognition

Oxytocin is a hormone that has effects on brain function. Although it is best known for its role in facilitating labor, delivery, and breast-feeding, it is also important in promoting trust, love, and social recognition.

In a new study in Biological Psychiatry, published by Elsevier, Australian autism experts recruited adolescents with ASDs. Using a rigorous study design, they administered a single dose each of oxytocin and placebo via a nasal spray, received one week apart. Both times, the subjects were asked to complete a facial expression task that measures emotion recognition.
Compared to administration of the placebo spray, the subjects' performance on the task was improved when they received the oxytocin spray.

These findings provide the first evidence that "a brief and simple intervention can improve emotion understanding in autism, or in fact any clinical disorder associated with social dysfunction. It is also the first to show the benefits of oxytocin nasal spray in young people, suggesting potential for earlier intervention where there may be greater opportunity to improve development," explained author Dr. Adam Guastella. "This study, therefore, makes an important advance with the longer-term hope that oxytocin could be used to improve social function in everyday settings for clinical disorders associated with social dysfunction."
Since this was a relatively small study, additional research is still needed to confirm these promising findings and further evaluate oxytocin as a potential treatment. Until then, the authors advise against the use of oxytocin outside of supervised clinical trial research.

Hyperbaric Treatment.

The Glebe Healing Centre at Annandale in Sydney is using this treatment and because I am so interested in this, I feel that its big news and others need to know about the Glebe Clinic and that it is there. So here you are:  The complete story of treatment with Oxygen.

Hyperbaric Treatment

Karen Brown
http://www.glebehealing.com.au/therapies/hyperbaric.htm

The primary healing element in our bodies is simply oxygen. Get too much or too little and we become unstable or die. We all know that the oxygen is absorbed through the lungs and circulated through
the blood in the body. A regulated increase of oxygen therefore helps with healing and assists with the detoxification. Air at sea level is made up of approximately 20% of oxygen and 80% of nitrogen.
There is a minor level of carbon dioxide and other gases but the bulks of the transparent gases that we take for granted are oxygen and nitrogen.

IMG 8989 At the End of the Footbridge
Walking oxygenates the system.
Hyper means an increase in the quantity or quality of something while baric means pressure. Put these together and you have a system that delivers oxygen under increased pressure that often increases and accelerates the body's natural ability to heal from a variety of afflictions.
  • Raising oxygen levels fights infections by killing bacteria.
  • It creates 'free radical' unstable molecules that are lethal to germs.
  • It stimulates roving immune cells called 'phagocytes' that scavenge for infectious microbes.
  • Oxygen is conductive to the production of collagen.
  • An elevation of oxygen helps heal injuries.
  • By speeding up the healing process, oxygen may also boost immunity and the regeneration of nerve cells.
  • Helps with stubborn infections, sinus, bones and skin disorders.
  • Can help reduce swelling.
The Basics....
The relatively small increase in pressure effectively washes the internal organs with thirty percent more oxygen during the session. This increased air pressure and oxygen can also assist with healing the body. Hyperbaric Treatment has been used in many sport environments to accelerate body repair time and may create a feeling of well-being. Our Oxygen Chamber accommodates up to five people or a wheelchair bound client and two helpers. The Oxygen Chamber is set to the safe level of 1.3 atmospheres, avoiding risks associated with deeper 'dives'.
Main Stream Health Facilities
Orthodox medicine has used oxygen therapy for many years but limited funding means that the majority of the general public will never benefit from using such public facilities. Many professional sports people use private installations for quicker healing and recovery. So it may come as a surprise that sophisticated installations made available in the community at modest charges are being regularly ridiculed by many surgeons and even a few unenlightened doctors. It would be useful if they researched the facilities rather than responding as if it was competition and embraced the benefits of complementary services that they are unable to cater for.
Typical Hospital Applications
High dose oxygen that is breathed at increased atmospheric pressure (hyperbaric), is used clinically to treat several types of disorders. Some of the approved uses of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) for acute medical emergencies include carbon monoxide poisoning, air embolism (sudden obstruction of a blood vessel by an air bubble), decompression sickness (commonly referred to as "the bends" suffered by deep sea divers), and gas gangrene
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy has been used to treat a variety of neurological problems such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, and other miscellaneous nervous system problems. The application of HBO2 therapy to neurological problems is still in its infancy and much research plus therapeutic standards are yet to be formulated.
Sessions are usually one hour long and we have an individual charge per person of $96 and discount is available for bulk bookings. Regular users can buy bulk use passes that reduce the cost considerably. Please call reception for details or look at the Hyperbaric Oxygen page.

Two critical laws come into play:
Henry's Law states that the quantity of a gas will dissolve in fluid proportionally to the partial pressure of the gas and its solubility; Daltonstated that each gas in a mixture of gases exerts its own pressure as
if no other gases were present.

These help to explain why the relatively small increase in pressure exerted on hyperbaric users effectively washes the internal organs with thirty
percent more oxygen during the session. The 1.3 atmospheres that the chamber is set to pressurise too is therefore relatively safe, avoiding risks
involved with deeper 'dives'.his chamber increases the air pressure and oxygen which can assist with healing the body. Hyperbaric treatment has been used in many sport environments to reduce body repair time and may create a feeling of well-being. We have a chamber that accommodates up to five people or a wheelchair bound client and two helpers.
Sessions are usually one hour long and we have an individual charge per person of $96 and discount is available for bulk bookings. The unit can accommodate up to five people or one wheelchair and two people at the same time. Please telephone reception on (02) 9566 1222 for details.
Hyperbaric Chamber 
High dose oxygen that is breathed at increased atmospheric pressure (hyperbaric), is used clinically to treat several types of disorders. Some of the approved uses of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) for acute medical emergencies include carbon monoxide poisoning, air embolism (sudden obstruction of a blood vessel by an air bubble), decompression sickness (commonly referred to as "the bends" suffered by deep sea divers), and gas gangrene. 
Mild hyperbaric therapy has been used to treat a variety of neurological problems such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, and other miscellaneous nervous system problems. The application of HBO2 therapy to neurological problems is still in its infancy and much research plus therapeutic standards are yet to be formulated. The Glebe Healing Centre is therefore only able to supply anecdotal evidence and provides a facility for clients to make their own benefits evaluation.

Stand Up - By Luke Wilton

Luke Wilton Live on 2bbb in September 2011.
 Goulbourne's loss and our gain in this area.  Luke is a young man with a huge passion.  He is a singer songwriter and a music therapist.  He can be contacted via facebook.   Drop him a message,  he wants to get this message our just like all of us do that care about our Mother Earth and the state of helplessness we are in because we gave so much power over to government.  

They have now lost the plot completely and are all in a mad scramble cutting each others throats as they go and walking over the next bloke and all they concern themselves with is money.

Three days to go and Matilda will be 22 years old.

This is an image of her when she was four years old.  So absolutely adorable.  How could anyone not love her.  She had the most defiant little temper though.



Matilda at four years old
Matilda Sunshine Katherine Baldwin

This is my way of celebrating her birthday,  I have no physical contact with Matilda, she denies my existence. 

This hurts but it is alright with me if this is what she really feels she has to do in her life.  In the mean time, I will prepare for her birthday.

I will make a fabulous cake this year to celebrate it.  For  2013 it will have to be the Amy Johnson Cake with extra trimmings.  

We will have a special dinner and place a setting for Matilda.   We will sing her happy birthday's to the Universe with candles.

The universe knows how much I care.   This all may be a little out there, but it helps me.  The world cannot stop me from being the mother I was destined to be, no matter what.  

I toughen up a little more each day in order to let it slide off of me like water on a greasy ducks back in order for me to live my life. 

I don't understand everything, I probably will never really understand this.  I am not sure I have to

Melonpop Drive is littered with tree branches and downed power lines!

No Melonpop Drive this week, we have the makings of a cyclone upon us.  I must stay home for safety.

Dogs must be on a lead so they do not get blown from your hands whilst walking on footbridge.
SAM 8348





The Low pressure system off the east coast is going to deliver record breaking flood waters today.  Some have not recovered from the previous flood 3 weeks ago of great significance as well.   This will cause a lot of devistation.  Ballina has had in excess of 50 roofs off in the general area that the SES has had to attend.

A Sub -Tropical Low is similar to a cyclone only further south.

The east coast of Australia prepares to batten down the hatches as another out of character subtropical low forms off the east coast of SE Queensland and Northern New South Wales in the Pacific Ocean.

IMG 5864 
The low pressure system is promising to bring a lot of rain and everyone is on flood alert.   This type of rain is sure to be another decent flood in the making.  Our local  Coffs Harbour / Bellingen area is on flood watch for moderate to serious flooding. 

Further north in the state  in the town of Grafton, they recently escaped with a centimeter to go before all hell broke loose in the last flood .  This was three weeks ago, the memory is very fresh and  people are still recovering in many of the outlying areas to these major townships. 

It is tough slog when the weather is like this.  People try so hard to keep their chins up.   I suspect there is a lot of crying going on in private behind closed doors and closed tents.  Putting on a brave face didn't really help anyone ever.  We know all know it is tough and it's alright to say you are broken and have had enough for now.  When you lose your life's memories it is heart breaking.  I wish I could help in a more effective way.  I hate to see humanity suffer in the ways we do.

IMG 3647 No Gas! Moore Park Action 

To quote my friend Joe Walker who lives in this area:
 "Our weather pattern has shifted 150km to North due to 'Climate Change' which now may be happening 6 times faster than expected probably due to ENORMOUS Methane emissions Northern Hemisphere! Sydney will have the climate of Rockhampton! The only place that will have 'proper' seasons in Australia will be Tasmania"
I agree, we cannot keep doing what we are doing to the planet and expect picnic weather everyday.  The weather will be the way the planet spits us off of her.   She will do this because we are like a blood sucking parasite on her body and she will be applying the salve very soon I feel to remove this.

Mining Laws in NSW are changing, but it is still an understatement.

IMG 3783 Energy Forum Faces
Besides being not enough it is not swift to deliver and it does nothing about the leases already granted  to these money hungry energy companies like Metgasco, AGL, Whitehaven, Arrow that are blatantly damaging ecosystems that will take a millennium to recover if ever.
IMG 3702 The Metgasco Fiasco lets go in our row!
The N.S.W. Premier,Barry O'Farrell and to a degree Campbell Newman in Queensland have both done an about face on a few of these issues around the lax laws concerning the granting of these PEL's.
Green groups are still not happy as this only effects new leases granted.  The Pilliga Forest is in trouble now and its crunch time there.  We will never be able to rehabilitate an entire forest that houses endangered Australian species by the arc load. We have to have more action in this area immediately and therefore we have to ramp up the pressure on Government while they are catching up to the rest of us out here who appear to know much more than they do.

http://www.planning.nsw.gov.au/asp/pdf/06_0217_rvps_cgp_ea_s3_projectdescription.pdf
This map shows Metgasco's plans for thirty to forty wells in one small area.
The news laws put restrictions around how close they can mine to certain industry and to people in general.  Although Green groups are not pleased, shock waves are being felt in board rooms across the country as these giant energy corps go into damage control because these laws will directly effect their bottom line price.  This will halt a considerable amount of gas extraction procedures and one could only hope that this is enough to fully break these companies down.  They are what is considered a stranded asset and this is not a great outlook for any future investment from any sector. 

Our Earth is groaning under the pressure the government push for industry across the planet.  Those people who command the highest salaries are so stupid they cannot see the connection between what they are doing and what is happening with global warming etc.  We are killing our planet and there will be no time left soon to turn this around if we do not hurry. 

Government across the planet cannot be trusted to have our best interests at heart.  They have the interests of big business and large corporations and they dress this up to us lowly folk as jobs for the people.  Jobs for the people to die working in an industry that kills them and everyone else while the fat losers in charge make all of the money and sit comfortable way up high away from the poison.

What they are missing here is they will all die as well.  They will not survive and they are not leaving a world for the future of our children.  They are leaving a cataclysm for our children to fight to survive through to start again with NOTHING.  Nothing because these greedy mongrels who were our leaders lied to everyone.  This system that we are part of is something that was a brain wave of the Romans as well as the roots of the differing types of Law as we know law today all came from the Universal Church which went on to become better known as the Roman Catholic Church of Rome.

My theory is the Mobile Telephone use has interupted the resonance of the animals of the planet.

IMG 2422 Capricorn Moon
Why did we ever think that pumping microwaves through our brain would be alright.   Humanity has zero idea what this is doing to us.  The jury is still out on this one.  I for one, dislike  to talk on these devices for extended periods of time.  Because the youth are seeming to be born with these in our cultures at present, I do hold concerns about all of our children and mobile telephone use.   We were all swept up in the fairy tale image of mobile communication when the technology opened up to the entire world.   We didn't think.  We are now 15 years down the track since the craze took off in this country and there is still no definitive proof that its safe.

Electrical tension and frequencies are very real and our planet has a frequency of 7.83Hz  which is known as the Schumann resonance.  Tension is  discharged by lightening in the earths ionosphere cavity.   The pulse of the earth is exactly 7.83Hz   absolutely identical to the Alpha waves of the human brain.  We are tuned into this identical pulse of life frequency.  

SAM 5566 Facebook First 

Hans Berger used an EEG machine and made the first ever recording of the human brain, and he named these the Alpha waves.  The brains frequency that controls our creativity, performance, emotions our stress our immune system and our entire being is tuned into the same frequency as the Earth.  Berger and Schumann worked together on this after their separate discoveries in the onset.

The pulse of the Earth is the pulse of life itself.  If this was a coincidence, it was natures most spectacular coincidence  to come to light yet.  There is a lot to be learned from this.  The very minute change in oxygen in the blood is enough to kill a lot of bad stuff, using drugs is just another way we have been conned for a lot of reasons. 

Not all medicine is bad.  It is also what has happened in medicine with big pharmaceutical companies wielding the power once again with lots of money being flashed around to sell things in that are really not to our benefit as a human species.

SHUMANN
HANS BERGER
RICK WEAVER   These are the men we need to thank for doing all of the research that shows what these resonances are in a scientific fashion for those less spiritual ones can see the hard evidence of what all indigenous cultures know by various names and in Australia it is in the Dreaming of the original people of the land.  The land and them are one and the same.  This connection is fully understood with these people.  They do not need to use EEG machines, they know this is the fact.

The Weekend Roundup from Doubtful Creek

DSC_0431
http://www.flickr.com/photos/davidlowe1970/

The amazing Mr Xavier Rudd called into Doubtful Creek to do the Pop Up concert for the fight against Csg in the Northern Rivers.  Xavier has been very vocal of late in the media regarding his opposition to this type of mining.  Last week on Triple J's Hack program he openly stood up against some fairly serious attacks regarding his core beliefs and how he feels about the environment.  I was wondering when the ABC was going to introduce this topic onto the Hack stage forum as it is a hot topic that is largely going unreported in the media because of just who owns our media for a start.


On the weekend it was very sunny and very wet as equally so.  I have been sky watching over the weekend and the clouds at night were really amazing to see.   You see huge big cumulonimbus clouds and along side this you see the full starry heaven.  The clouds were shining with the moon light shining on them.  Spectacular.  Mercury is up there in the sky to be seen easily at the present time.

It certainly is time for us to effect the changes we want to see occur in the world in any small way we can.

Lockyer Gate


Yes, a play on words with the suffix gate at the end to denote a scandal as stark as this image below and as hairy.
IMG 8906 
 First he was unsure, then he thought it was not a good idea, and because of a multimillion dollar contract the best of the best jumped on board to show Football hero Darren Lockyer just how safe Csg is.  In other words when he says he feels much more comfortable now, he really is saying this, " they did a great job of feeding me a lot of scientific spin that was meant to sound good, and it did sound so good I feel comfortable now".

In 2012  Darren Lockyer signed a three-year contract, the amount of this contract was not made public knowledge .  He was sweetened with a huge sum of money to be the safety ambassador for the multi billion dollar APLNG project at Gladstone.

He has been had, he has not seen the Condamine River bubbling with methane and he has not met the 26 families at Tara at the Kogan Gas Field area.  He believes the government findings that say there are no health or safety issues.  He has done no independent research.  Can someone buy that man a Woman's Day Magazine please,  Debbie Orrs story!

He has no comment about the families in Queensland and Nth N.S.W. that already have health impacts that are a direct result of this rogue Csg Industry.  He believes the Csg industry is doing it as safe as they can.  He knows he is going to cop flack he also said.  He believes he will cop flack for what he deems presenting the facts, little does he realize how much flack he will cop.

Footballers have long been seen as great sportsman but usually lacking in the academic department.  This is a clear cut case of this age old description.   Darren Lockyer must have rocks in his head to have been swayed by that much money from Origin Energy to sell out on the Australian people that easily. 

This will see a move away from Rugby League by a lot of dyed in the wool fans as they put environment up as a priority against the flippancy of sport and sporting heroes.  If our sporting heroes are not going to help us when our plight is at its worst then there will be a lot of people who will take this attitude of their heroes very seriously.

Darren Lockyer is one of the greatest players ever to grace the parks of the world and display his freakish footballing skills, in this case he has just ruined every bit of this reputation he fought long and hard to gain with his wide fan base of footy fans across Australia and the rest of the world.  It has just been annihilated.
