Stealing Africa – Why Poverty?


Africa is rarely in the headlines but needs to be.
The ubiquitous Western influence is strong, intrusive, invasive and insidious.

Snow, hail and rain make for dangerous conditions on state’s roads


STAFF WRITER        Mercury October 13, 2013 10:01PM

Note the date – 6 weeks into Spring.

Being provocative of course, but winter should have departed, even in Tasmania!

Not conclusive, naturally, but this is a reminder to those that still think global warming is a disaster because it is hotter than normal in some places.

Science has it that global temperature is an average (of some sorts) of various places on the planet (hopefully not cherry-picked), that include extreme “colds” and extreme “hots”.

SNOW, hail and rain have created hazardous driving conditions across the state.

Police are warning drivers to take care on elevated roads overnight.

Snow and ice will affect most elevated roads above 400 metres.

Police have received reports of hail on roads in the south of the state.

The Arthur Highway near Port Arthur has slippery driving conditions because of heavy hail.

Motorists are urged to drive to the conditions and proceed with caution on roads affected by ice,snow and hail.

YOUR Chance for YOUR say on Energy Concerns….


Yes, your/our chance to say something.
With the proviso that no response will be forthcoming, no acknowledgement of receipt, no assurance that what we say will be even considered.
Even so, it would be good if everyone did respond with questions and comments and perhaps add a comment to this post that they have submitted something.

Stop Smart Meters Australia

In a recent interview with Neil Mitchell at 3AW, Minister Kotsiras, Victorian Minister for Energy and Resources, asked for feedback on energy related issues/concerns etc.  The interview can be found at: http://www.3aw.com.au/blogs/breaking-news-blogs/energy-companies-put-on-notice/20130913-2toen.html
What does he mean that he’ll ‘fix all the problems at once in 3 months time, with legislation’?

Minister Kotsiras asked for input and feedback via the following website: www.switchon.vic.gov.au/home
Click on tab right hand, bottom of page that says ‘Energy Concerns’ (blue bordered box).

So let’s all GRAB this opportunity to give our feedback, and don’t sit back on our “she’ll be right mate” Aussie butts.

And, while we are at it let’s ALSO send our concerns via email directly to the Minister just to make sure he hears us: nicholas.kotsiras@parliament.vic.gov.au

Food stamp recipients panic as federal EBT system crashes; government IT systems rapidly unraveling

This ‘Natural News‘ article is newsworthy if one wants to keep abreast of the US internal collapse. Sad really [understatement], because such a state should never have developed. Only because of absolute greed by the bankers and the bribed politicians, the insane military expenditure based on lies, and the extreme lack of respect for their constitution and concern for their own people.

The only possible end result of a disastrous collapse that was foreseen more than 20 years ago. Strangely, most people cannot see it even now!  The government can, however, see this disaster enfolding before their very eyes and have financed extensive methods of coping with the probable extreme civil unrest that could ensue.

This is very serious stuff, difficult to comprehend, easy to deny as “conspiracy theory”, but the writing is on the wall, so to speak. Unbelievable, but true!  Be afraid!

(NaturalNews) I’ve often said that 72 hours after EBT cards stop
working, every U.S. city will collapse into chaos. In case you’re not familiar with the term, EBT cards are “digital food stamps.” Nearly 50 million Americans are right now using EBT cards which are automatically refilled each month with welfare money the government doesn’t have, increasing the national debt.

Under Obama, food stamp enrollees have exploded. The annual usage statistics for food stamps are found here, but you can’t see them because under the Obama administration’s contrived “shutdown theater,” the USDA.gov website has been taken offline.  Note, of course, that the food stamp program itself is still online (most of the time), thereby proving there really isn’t a “government shutdown” as claimed by Obama.

If you really want to see the data, you have to go to a private website like this one that shows the annual food stamp enrollment from 1975 to 2012:

http://www.dailyjobsupdate.com/wp-content/up…

There, you can clearly see the explosion of food stamps under Obama, who has more than doubled the number of Americans on the program. That’s considered “economic growth” by democrats, by the way: the more people who subsist on government, the better the economy.

Quote of the Year: Climate Models Have Problems


Big Picture News, Informed Analysis

Cigarette packages come with warning labels. So should IPCC reports.

climate_model_warning

Yesterday, yet another research paper telling us that harmful climate change is headed our way grabbed headlines. Here in Canada, a national newspaper declared: Science team identifies tipping point in climate change: 2047. A radio station proclaimed: Climate change will devastate major cities by 2047, new study says.

But it was the coverage in the New York Times that was truly remarkable. The story there was 20 paragraphs long. This was paragraph number six:

The research comes with caveats. It is based on climate models, huge computer programs that attempt to reproduce the physics of the climate system and forecast the future response to greenhouse gases. Though they are the best tools available, these models contain acknowledged problems, and no one is sure how accurate they will prove to be at peering many decades ahead. [bold added]

The Heart Foundation Tick of Death


Of course make up your own minds, but here is a compelling article with several good references and some interesting ensuing comments.

Much to think about and a good starting point for research into the probable fallacies of “official” theories about fats and health.

Get a Fresh Start

If it has the Heart Foundation tick of approval, don’t buy it. More often than not that shit aint food. It is merely a mashup of mostly non food, toxic ingredients that will do absolutely NOTHING for your health and simply assist you in getting fatter, sicker, more nutritionally depleted and a more likely candidate for a heart attack and a multitude of other chronic, degenerative and other rather unpleasant issues.

Today I took a trip to my local Coles and took photos of a bunch of products with the Tick of Approval. I had my three year old with me and he never goes to these big supermarkets (we shop at farmers markets and various small, locally owned businesses, so he is not used to being in these places). It was quite distracting for him as I was picking things up all over the place and putting them back…

When Health Issues are not the responsibility of a Health Department – How Bizarre!


“Mr Cleaves indicated that the department of health has appointed a group of medical doctors from their office to produce a ‘factual statement’, similar to the one on wind farms, on the ‘safety’ of Radio Frequencies, as per ARPANSA standards. I expect these medical doctors will actually be making a farcical statement rather than a factual one because not one of these Doctors is interested in interviewing or investigating any of the complaints being raised to them by genuine EHS sufferers. This is equivalent to making a medical diagnosis without actually talking to, or seeing the patient.”

Stop Smart Meters Australia

Taking a stand Part 6 – Taking the Chief Health Officer of Victoria to task

While I was in correspondence with ARPANSA over Australia’s questionable RF standards, I decided I would send a please explain letter to the Victorian Chief Health Officer and the Victorian Radiation Advisory Committee. To give my letter more weight, I performed a search of the Stop Smart Meters website for keywords such as headache and insomnia to extract a list of health impairment stories that have been directly attributed to the smart meter deployment. I crafted a letter using this information along with my own personal experiences with the hope that I would be able to get an informed opinion from those who are supposedly qualified in this field of why we are suffering these health issues and what would be done about it.

The letter can be found here

I received an automated reply…

Obamacare a Private Sector Rip-Off of Americans


For readers who are confused about the current US state of decadence – there is a legitimate reason for Congress to hold the country and the President to ransom. They realize that Obama is basically out of control.

His “Obama-care”is a disaster for the public, and much of the business world, contrary to the usual spin from his supporters.

This article clarifies much of what is not generally known about the health care mess in the US.

COTO Report

obamacare hurtsBy Paul Craig Roberts
Global Research

Obamacare works for the insurance companies, but not for the uninsured.

.The government of the “world’s only superpower,” the “exceptional,” the “indispensable” country, claims to know what is best for Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Pakistan, Somalia, Mali, Russia, Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador, Brazil, China, indeed for the entire world. However, the “indispensable” country cannot even govern itself, much less the world over which the “superpower” desires hegemony. The government of the “world’s only superpower” has shut itself down.
