RECOGNISE must be protested.

Secret Venues to avoid protests against the current recognise campaign.

STOP PRESS:

MONDAY 6 JULY PROTEST MARCH over SYDNEY HARBOUR BRIDGE. GATHER in PARK next to MUSEUM of CONTEMPORARY ART, CIRCULAR QUAY, SYDNEY HARBOUR from 8.30am MONDAY 6 July for 10am MARCH over SYDNEY HARBOUR BRIDGE to North Shore, BRING 'NO VOTE' BANNERS, MEGAPHONES, FLAGS etc. ....

According to our information the meeting is taking place on Monday 6th July at Kirribilli House where there is considerable security. What Abbott and Shorten are doing with this conference is making a mockery of the diplomatic processes they espouse in Australia.

It is not possible to conduct a successful plebiscite if the whole process is camouflaged and hidden from the public. Then to restrict the participation in something of this magnitude is criminal. We expect this in countries where people are governed by dictators, but then are Australians really comfortable with the Abbott government's governance?

People have to take responsibility and educate themselves on the fine points of law that are governing this referendum and the outcome it will bring about with a successive yes vote.  It does acquiesce the peoples right to fairness ever being recognised.

The Recognise campaign is trying to subvert the Aboriginal sovereignty movement.

So if you think im racist LOL because I dont agree with RECOGNIZE then educate yourself and shut the hell up with the garbage politician Side of the story.. politicians spread lies = its their job .. fkd job but yep that is their job description ---> spreading lies and deceit disguised as truth to the sheep who listen.

The Roman Empire tried to pacify conquered peoples by giving out cheap food and entertainment (superficial means of appeasement), hence the phrase “bread and circuses”.

This tactic was intended to create public approval through diversion and distraction.  How is Constitutional reform any different?

Emir Abd al-Qadir al-Jaza’iri (d. 1883) on Critical Reasoning vs. Blind Emulation

Wikipedia

Those who are leaders from among the people can be divided into broad categories.  The first are those who are knowledgeable and beneficial to themselves and others. These come to know the truth through demonstrative proof and evidence, not by blind emulation, and encourage the people to also seek the truth by demonstrative proof and evidence and to by simply following others.  The second group are both destructive to both themselves and to others.  These are those that blindly emulate their forefathers in what they believe and what they and what they consider to be correct, abandoning rational investigation and calling the people to emulate them instead of thinking for themselves.

Emir-Abd Al Qadir Al- Jza'iri, Dhirka Al-'Aqil WaTanbih A-Ghafil (beirut 1966). p.34

ThyAlwaysseek

To be a leader of men and woman, one must lay aside all of ones own wants and desires and desire only to serve and serve honorably.  This type of service is the highest service to mankind and it must be treated as such.

Canberra

We are ruled by psychopathic leaders all across the earth.   These are selfish people who are vested in greed and avarice and because we have allowed this to happen, our planet is very ill.

Philosophy employs what Plato calls ‘the eye of the mind’ to go beyond the immediacy revealed by sense experience so as to access the true reality revealed  by the intellect.  

In this view of philosophy, there are levels of cognition which ascend from instincts and desires at the level of immediacy up to reason and intellect at the highest level. 

The path to truth, knowledge and freedom leads at the summit, the opening at the top of the bottle. This is the way of philosophy. The intellect shows the true reality. This is reality as seen through the eye of the mind. Philosophizing through the Eye of the Mind

TRIGLAV

Triglav

Triglav is a three-headed warrior god. The Slavs pictured him as a god with three heads and golden bands over his eyes and mouth which he wears because of the frightening power of his eyes and so he could not see the sins of humans because he is so fond of them.


Triglav is one of the most mysterious gods in the Slav pantheon. Triglav “rules the three kingdoms”, the heavens, the earth and hell, he is invisible and the purest of deities that rarely comes down to earth because he doesn’t want to see the wrongdoings of men. The book of Veles opens with the sentence “We pray and bow to the first Triglav”, after that they immediately mention Svarog as the conceiver of all gods and after him Perun and Svetovid.

The Christian mythology also shows the Trinity in the symbolism of the three faced Jesus.. This is symbolic of the Trinity....Creator/Male/Female but it is also symbolic of the Trinity that exists within the Divine Tribes when including their first emanation "offspring"

Jesus with three faces

This statue of The Tribe of Judah shows the Trinity within the Tribe....

This represents the Trinity within the Tribe too with the Divine Male holding their offspring.

The symbolism of Mary holding baby Jesus is not actually Jesus but is showing the first emanation/offspring of Jesus and Mary. who represent the First Born Divine Male and Female... everything happens in three's

"golden bands over his eyes and mouth which he wears because of the frightening power of his eyes and so he could not see the sins of humans because he is so fond of them" <--- this is interesting because it confirms once again that at the end of the cycle it is the Divine Female that see's through Mortal Man's deceit and returns to seek justice for her God, Mother Earth and her Race.

On the Tree of Life the Pillar of Severity is on the side of the Female while Mercy is connected to the Male. We also see it is Kali the aspect of Divine Female that returns to avenger her God at the end of the Yuga or Great Year. In the Norse Mythology it is the valkyrie a group of Female Warriors who return at Ragnarok too.

 No doubt why the anti Christ fear the Divine Female so much and have sought to remove her importance from the sacred texts and reduce her to nothing more than a breeder....they know how powerful the Divine Female really is.

All the numbers and Angkor Wat

Jim Alison found that Angkor Wat is 4,745 miles from the Great Pyramid, which is 7,677 miles from Nazca, the two distances being in the golden ratio (0.618 or 1.618), as 4,745 x 1.618 = 7,677.

Alison also found that distances (in miles) between sites hid Fibonacci sequence numbers. For example, Giza to Nazca is 7,692 miles and Nazca to Angkor is 12,446 miles.
(the 360th Fibonnaci number is 76,924, and the 361st is 12,446).

A massive Solar Storm creates Aurora Australis

Right on the Solstice ...

Image: SDO spacecraft image of the solar flare. Credit: NASA

A fast, strong Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) which launched from the Sun on Sunday afternoon is expected to hit Earth early Tuesday morning. This may cause visible auroras across southern Australia from Tuesday morning to Wednesday night.  In other words our Earth just got hammered and it was so close to an X Class Flare too.   The Ejection was prolonged in its action and in a couple of days to a week there will be a massive earthquake somewhere on the Earth.   The Pacific ring is coming awake again and so the big one could be in that region of New Zealand or perhaps the Solomon Islands or the islands of Hawaii or Vanuatu.   This leaves the east coast of Australia in a vulnerable position if a Tsunami was generated thereafter.  

The last ejection similar to this one was back in April earlier this year.  On the 25th April the Nepal Earthquake which was also known as the Gorkha Earthquake killed in excess of 8,800 people and approximately 23,000 people were seriously injured.  The quake occurred at 11:56 with a magnitude of 7.8M_w or 8.1M_s and a maximum Mercalli Intensity of IX (Violent).

Its epicenter was east of the district of Lamjung, and its hypocenter was at a depth of approximately 15 km (9.3 mi).  After shocks were prevalent at 15 to 20 minute intervals.  It was like birthing contractions.  Then on the 12th May another gigantic aftershock of 7.3 occurred causing a huge landslide and more people lost their lives.

According to records it would suggest that this was the worst natural disaster to strike Nepal since the 1934 Nepal–Bihar earthquake.

Space weather conditions here: http://bom.is/ips

  

In Australia it is unusual to see Aurora's so close to Sydney and so just an hour south at Kiama there was a spectacular display.   This is also a clear warning to us not to become complacent as we are living inside of an environment that is alive with magnetic energy and radiation.

Things will become very interesting across the planet.  I can say now clearly that we have turned the corner.  We are zeroing back to our source.

 

I had noted also there were many trails in the sky leading up to this G5.   I don't fully understand that technology they are using with that but acknowledge it is going on in our skys above.  

Using an analogy to describe this, I  can say it would be like taking alcohol with medication and getting a serious and perhaps fatal reaction to the combination.

The combination of the elite establishment weather trickery combined with the reactions of the planet could cause this  response to be gigantic.   This could cause another major incident as I said earlier.  Stay safe and stay prepared for worst.  Is is coming.  Ragnarok is upon us all and no one gets out alive.

AGL causes a tear in the Fabric of Gloucester NSW.

The following is an open letter to Andrew Vesey, chief executive of AGL.

Dear Mr Vesey,
Re: Gloucester Gas Project

My name is Brad Bowden, I am a 41-year-old resident of the small community of Gloucester.

Firstly I would like to congratulate you on your first few months at the helm of AGL.
You are correct that the energy market is rapidly changing and faces significant challenges.

I am particularly excited by the battery technologies and solar farms you are investing in.
Having moved to Gloucester and experienced the warm welcome this small country town offered myself and my partner, it has been simply devastating to see the town being ripped apart by AGL’s coal seam gas project over the past few years.

It has split this town in so many ways, friend against friend, neighbour against neighbour.

But what is worse to see is that so many family or friends feel intimidated, bullied and unable to express their true feelings towards this risky project.

Your gas project has unleashed an ugly side to Gloucester, where the bullies rely on personal attacks rather than calmly discussing the concerns.

I am totally against coal seam gas development in all of Australia, especially NSW and of course Gloucester.

I believe coal seam gas is too risky to water, that it will worsen climate change from methane emissions, and that there is still no acceptable way to deal with the enormous amount of toxic waste that coal seam gas extraction produces. Tipping millions of tonnes of salt into landfill simply leaves the problem to be cleaned up by future generations. I feel you are risking AGL’s reputation in Australia if you continue to pursue coal seam gas.

All the recent positive publicity about AGL’s solar farm at Nyngan must surely indicate to you a better way forward for AGL.

It is my hope that you and the AGL board decide that coal seam gas is not a good investment for the health of your brand, nor for the health of future generations.

Until that time I will continue to march against coal seam gas, to protest at the AGL gates at Gloucester, to write letters and to promote cleaner and more ethical companies to my friends and family. Like many others already, I have minimised my exposure to your company by changing super funds, changing energy providers and asking my friends and family to do the same.

Sincerely,
Brad Bowden

Brad Bowden is a Gloucester resident.

It’s time. Bellingen Community Automotive.

I love a great idea, and when I come across one I get excited at the prospect that many people could achieve if they put their minds to this.

Dr Herzberg has certainly pulled one out of the hat with this idea to purchase the late Carl Foster's iconic garage in the centre of Bellingen NSW.

He puts forward a very interesting point of view that may enlighten a lot of people to the truth of the business situation and why ideas like his are important to consider.    I also think it would be an honour to Carl Foster too because no doubt they would retain the name .. it is the name everyone knows the Garage as, either that or it gets called Cj's.

You may be aware that Fosters garage is for sale.

It appears that it is close to sale. The business will close and the site will be developed, in some way. It will be owned, as most of the buildings in our public area are, by a private individual. That person will put in the money to buy the property, invest in its development, earn from renting out the space and, perhaps, at some point in the future, sell the property and probably earn some more from the capital gain.

Foster's Garage was iconic and I hope it stays that way.

Fosters Garage

There is a great opportunity here. For us, as a community to own something together. As part of a step in the direction of collaboration and cooperation among all of us.

As the challenges to our society and our planet continue to become more complex ( and dire, one might say) the relative power and ability of each of us individually to engage and affect these challenges is diminishing. We watch, mostly helplessly, in the face of …..moral and ethical catastrophes across the realms of media, immigration, first people, health, law, finance, agriculture, mining, education while our governments struggle to balance the needs and wishes of the few with the many…. Many of us spend a good deal of time and energy working to correct these wayward strategies, all the while recognising a deep sense of futility.

There is a massive shift occurring amongst human activity across the planet. The time of separation has past. A time of new interconnectedness is here. Our fates are inexorably linked. They actually always have been, only now it’s becoming ever clearer. We all breathe the same air, drink the same water, eat from the same earth. We drive on the same roads. We employ the same politicians.

It is time for us to collectively own and take stewardship of more than just the cars we drive and the houses we live in ( if we own them ).
If a single individual can own a strip of shops in the main street of a small country town and glean a financial benefit, why not a group of people? Why not the whole community?

This is not specifically a money making venture, although I doubt anyone would complain if we all made a little money as well.
This is an investment in community. Our community. By our community.

There are many possibilities for how this can occur but in essence at this stage my suggestions for what we need:
The money: at least $1.2 million. That’s $1200 each from 1000 people, on average. This can be lots of very small amounts, a few very large ones and everything in between. The point is to secure the premises.

We also need:

The Board - 5- 7 people with a range of skills and experience and social groups to represent the broader community in the vision and mission of the enterprise.

The executive - 3-5 people with the skills and experience to run the business as and with the board directs.

The employees - work for the business.

The members - own the business.

We will still need to clarify what a share in the business looks like but the principle is one of inclusion. This is not designed to be a process for making lots of money using lots of money. They have a say in how it works, is run, the broader development or new streams and activities. Ideally, members get cheaper fuel, access to mechanics, opportunities for training and employment, cheaper rent for other business premises once the site is further developed… There are many possibilities.

I propose a community consultation and workshop process to find out who is interested and how much.

I look forward to hearing from you.
Gull

Bill Trekking the Appalachian Trail

Recently a very good friend of ours,  Bill Bunting who is from the state of Georgia embarked on a huge adventure.  He kicked off his adventure in Georgia to hike the Appalachian Trail - Georgia to Maine.

 Old Hiker boots grow well on the Trail.
Image by Bill

Fun Facts

• The Trail is roughly 2,180 miles long, passing through 14 states.

• Thousands of volunteers contribute roughly 220,000 hours to the A.T. every year.
• More than 250 three-sided shelters exist along the Trail.
• Virginia is home to the most miles of the Trail (about 550), while West Virginia is home to the least (about 4).
• Maryland and West Virginia are the easiest states to hike; New Hampshire and Maine are the hardest.
• The total elevation gain of hiking the entire A.T. is equivalent to climbing Mt. Everest 16 times.
• The A.T. is home to an impressive diversity of plants and animals. Some animals you may see include black bears, moose, porcupines, snakes, woodpeckers, and salamanders. Some plants you may encounter include jack-in-the-pulpit, skunk cabbage, and flame azalea.

 Selfie by Bill Hiking on the Trail

Hikers

• About 2 to 3 million visitors walk a portion of the A.T. each year.
• The A.T. has hundreds of access points and is within a few hours drive of millions of Americans, making it a popular destination for day-hikers.

• “Thru-hikers” walk the entire Trail in a continuous journey. “Section-hikers” piece the entire Trail together over years. “Flip-floppers” thru-hike the entire Trail in discontinuous sections to avoid crowds, extremes in weather, or start on easier terrain.
• 1 in 4 who attempt a thru-hike successfully completes the journey
• Most thru-hikers walk north, starting in Georgia in spring and finishing in Maine in fall, taking an average of 6 months.
• Foods high in calories and low in water weight, such as Snickers bars and Ramen Noodles, are popular with backpackers, who can burn up to 6,000 calories a day.
• Hikers usually adopt “trail names” while hiking the Trail. They are often descriptive or humorous. Examples are “Eternal Optimist,” “Thunder Chicken,” and “Crumb-snatcher".

Trail Maps can be sort HERE and a map is a must have.  You would not do this walk without a map of where you are and considering you walk through fourteen states, you kit would be half maps because there are so many of them.

This is Bill and I while he was adventuring down under.  This
was his last evening with us all here.

 On the trail.. it is customary to choose a "Trail Name".  Bill chose BILBO... as in Bilbo baggins I would presume.   One has to only hope there are no Gollum's on this beautiful trail to take him down like the last time.

Woolworths waltzed through the Mullumbimby Green Gate!

Green politics threw all the devils out with the bathwater in Mullumbimby when it failed to recognize the basic needs of its own community.

Mullumbimby can be added to the list  of places that have worn the fate of Green Politics causing more problems than its worth. Did those organising this protest action for residents do their research or were they  part of the problem?  Did they act incognito for Woolworth's knowing the psychology of the area and  if so they were never really part of the solution if that was ever the case.

An old saying comes to mind:  "Better the Devil you know than the Devil you Don't",  and this is a clear case of such a Devil. 

The big devil Supermarket giants putting a large footprint  down in idyllic places like Mullumbimby is something none of us like for the all obvious reasons.   Here is a case where they acted like predators sitting in the shadows waiting to slip in the back door while the dust was still rising from the towns actions to stop the Mallam Family Enterprise.  This happens via sloppy politics and palm greasing, I have no doubts about that.    People can be bought and sold today like it is still the Great South slave trade.

• Which Greens Member organised this action to stop the long time local Mallam family building a bigger more modern and sufficient Grocery store?  

• Who was paid by Woolworth's to pull off this brainless action against one of their own residents and local business people?

Those are two viable questions that people should be asking despite the fact the horse has already bolted.  It is clear such a nonsensical action as this can be learned from for future benefit.

I am finding that people are sheep and they are becoming more docile daily.  It was a herd of sheep who blindly followed the leader against this families supermarket plans.   The Mallam's point was missed completely.  The Mullumbimby residents  are now paying dearly for that blind behaviour.  

Now, as a result of this, Mullumbimby has  fallen foul to the biggest devil of them all,  aka Woolworth's!  If they couldn't see this coming at them I think they need to take their hands out of the mull bowl and start waking up to the dirty politics that is our reality. 

Stop hugging useless unicorns.  When things are unbalanced - The wheels just fall off don't they!

Well I guess the wheels fell off this action and the said wheels were mangled beyond recognition.  What a cock-up! 

I have great empathy with families like the Mallam Family.  These situations occur in towns because of small minded behaviour.  A failure to see the actual needs of the town versus a person or person's own selfish ideologies can be a dangerous thing.  

Whole communities are at risk when they choose to follow the leader with out doing their homework.

FOUR CORNERS: "The End of Coal"

Whitehaven Coal Meme

With the price of coal plummeting and our biggest customers turning to renewable energy, is Australia backing a loser?

 Read More here 

 THE END OF COAL?reported by Geoff Thompson and presented by Kerry O'Brien, goes to air on Monday 15th June at 8.30pm. It is replayed on Tuesday 16th of June at 10.00am and Wednesday 17th at midnight. It can also be seen on ABC News 24 on Saturday at 8.00pm, ABC iview and at abc.net.au/4corners.

I was held fast in my chair from start to finish.  Then I watched it again.  I was doing happy dances and I had tears of joy in my eyes when I saw the Solar Storage Units because at that moment I could see it is just a matter of time.

I feel like we may have turned the corner even if our stupid brain dead politicians haven't.  We really do not have to gauge anything they say any longer as truth.  It is proven beyond a doubt they have only their own interests at heart. Politicians bank accounts getting fatter with no care given for the land or the people who peopled from that land are clearly getting fat via such genocidal treasonous policies that allow this.   The ordinary people suffer while the politicians get rich leave politics and take up a position in mining.

I implore you to follow the links to the ABC website to watch the episode of Four Corners as it will give you so much heart to go on in this fight against such abject destruction by our leaders in power signing off on dead projects.

MP Kevin Anderson speaks out on CSG at Hunter Nationals Conference!

 

The political machine was working over time after the Nationals Conference on the weekend in the Hunter Valley.   The member for Tamworth, Mr Kevin Anderson has voiced his opinion on the matter in the media. He is clearly against the party line and the push by his own party to end the CSG issue in the Northern Rivers area. 

Anderson said he wants a state wide policy adoption and he wants it streamlined.  Of course he does.

He needs the Knitting Nana's help!  He needs better understanding about this issue on a deeper level.  He wants to be a hero in the party for his area of Tamworth, but farmers will not be happy if he does not address this topical issue.  

How does he stand on this issue?  People need to know whether or not he wants this type of mining  banned outright or whether he is backing the large mining corporations who seemingly run politics in Australia. 

It has been this way since year dot. But now its in your face and it is more than sickening.  Its also frustrating to sit back as a constituent and watch it unfold.

If I was a real knitting Nana I would go to Tamworth but I think the issue here with me doing that is squarely placed with the fact I am not going to ever relent and say that the political system is capable of fixing what the issue is here. 

Further to this, others find my attitude odd.  I see lies and corruption and greed and I cannot get past this attitude surrounding Australian economics.

I can't relent on the politics issue because it's just not what I believe to be true anymore.  I wouldn't be being true to myself if I was to go along with what I feel is a  brain dead idea (politics and law can fix the countries issues and fix the destruction from mining) that is going backwards. I know a new paradigm is needed.

Politicians can be nice people, I know this to be fact.  I count one as a dear personal friend.  But I also feel if political policies end up  hurting others who are vulnerable then that alone is key to understanding the party and what sort of person the politician is who instigates such policy. 

From observation I see approximately 90 percent of those involved in politics  are narcissistic in their personality type.   This is clearly evident, they cherry pick issues.   Political points scoring and gaining success appear more important for their political careers.   Ask a politician to take a pay cut..  then see the true monster show its face.

A VERY CHEAP HOUSE!!

The following blog post was taken from Good Home Designs because it is by far the most economical awesome house I have seen to date. This house is totally doable by most people with a bit of common sense. Even a bad job would still be awesome using these age old techniques that these awesome people used.

Looking for a very stable design which does not only come cheap from the start but also makes you save money in the long run.

Due to its shape and materials used, the earthbag house has less area than your normal home, so it’s cheaper to keep it supplied with energy. Don’t be scared if you never built circular structures before, because the example shown here used a technique called the compass arm which you can easily learn.

Recycled or salvaged materials were used wherever it was possible, like in the door or on the floor.

The tutorial has photos showcasing almost each step of the building process so if you decide to replicate the project, use it to help and guide you along the way. At the end you will have the comfort of 450 ft² with less than $5,000 spent overall.

Starting on the rubble trench foundation. Railroad ballast was used for the rubble.

 

Covering over our sediment fabric with pea gravel.

 
Two rows of stem wall – 80 lb sack concrete. 2 strands of barbed wire go between every row. The thing in the middle is our building compass, made from chain link parts, used to keep the walls round and level.

 

Firewood used to hold the barbed wire in place. The row of gravel bags going in. When tamped, they are about 2 inches thick.

Door frame up. The bottom layer of bags are double bags filled with gravel to keep water from wicking up into the walls.

A strip anchor to hold the door in place. Filling a bag with a mix of clay soil from on-site and “screenings” from a gravel quarry.

Mary-Jane and Morgan on right

The little window near the camera will also be a cold storage in the winter. Note our first lintel over window in back. This keeps the wall stable over an “open” area such as a door or window.

Ropes in wall are to tie down joists when we put the roof on. Note flue through which stove pipe will exit the wall.

Center post. Locust wood.

Plywood going on.

 

First roof layer – 6 mil poly. Water proof tape to join sheets. We also put silicone caulk to help seal it. Cardboard layer (for a little extra insulation ).

Styrofoam (saved from dumpsters) bags sealing between joists with chicken wire for plaster over them. Hose separates earth and cement plaster. Cement wicks water up.

Our house was looking rather like a cupcake. The loft in all of it’s glory with queen sized futon on top and office underneath .

Earthbag Building is the first comprehensive guide to all the tools, tricks, and techniques for building with bags filled with earth—or earthbags.
