The Near Future:

South Australia’s big Tesla battery sued for not helping during Queensland coal power station failure

…the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) alleges it did not deliver as promised during a major Queensland coal plant failure in 2019, “creating a risk to power system security and stability”.

The Federal Court legal action against owner Hornsdale Power Reserve comes months after the AER successfully sought financial penalties from wind farms for failures associated with South Australia’s statewide blackout.

Technical note: The AER is in the same stable as AEMO: both are complicit in hollowing out Australia’s electricity supply system.

The self awareness is extraordinary:

“It is vital that generators do what they say they can do if we’re going to keep the lights on through the market’s transition to variable renewable generation,” [AER Chairthing] Ms Savage said.

Variable renewable generation”: designed by lawyers and economists.

Topher Field explained that The Marchers did NOT want to go to The Shrine.

They knew it was sacred, hallowed ground, but the Police pushed them there, giving them no other choice.

That was when the people decided, well yeah, this is just where we can appeal to our ancestors for the freedoms they fought & died for.

The people were respectful.

The people only wanted to leave, as one group, straight up through the middle, out through the park.
Safe FOR ALL.

From go to whoa you can see that the idea of Govt Media Spinners & VicPol was to deliberately set The Marchers up as “disrespectors” of Our War Dead.

This means that despite what the Govt Social Media Army is pumping out there, real intelligence it telling Dan & Co. that The People Are On The Side of The Marchers and that they are desperate to turn that around.

2. This idea, and subsequent plan to bring the day to an uneventful end was seen and overruled by uptight VicJack Inc bosses with their pride hurt at being out-thought by what they perceived as a bunch of dumb tradies.

They were spinning hard last night that their tactics worked as planned.
Like the footy coach who just copped a ten goal hiding talks about “processes” and “hitting our KPIs”.
If the plan was going beautifully, why did they pull the news choppers live feeds mid-afternoon?

The Govt Media Spin was to paint the people as Un-Australian, disrespecting Our War Dead, and so turn the country against them.

Overhead filming of the small groups being arrested on St Kilda Rd by LYING Police who told the wouldn’t be, PLUS the vision of the long, clear path through the middle of the park that Police refused to let the people leave by, SHOOTS THAT BULLSHIT NARRATIVE TO SHIT!

Also, overhead filming would have shown that Police DELIBERATELY pushed The Marchers to The Shrine.

All that remains is compliance.

The problem the police have if they continue down this path is that they require not just grudging compliance but active public co-operation for their normal policing work. Absent good will & that fades away, making their job much more difficult. Minority groups – particularly the indigenous and Muslims – are especially good at exploiting this in their favour.

Rogersays: Noted submarine expert KRudd proposing that we allow the French to build the hulls of our new subs while the Americans provide the propulsion system. As if the French would be happy with that.

This is only fair.

The Spanish could contribute the communications suite. We watched Money Heist the other day – until we gave it up as ridiculous – and the Spanish talk non-stop.

The British could provide the galley and cooks. There is nothing like overcooked British veggies.

The Indonesians could do the plumbing. Every one of their Navy ships pumps all the time so they clearly have expertise here.

Does all paint come from China now? Maybe they could supply some lumpy stuff with micro-transmitters in it.

This is clearly up with Kevin’s better ideas: insulation that sets your roof on fire; round-table conferences with him sitting on the floor, and national apologies that make Sydney-siders feel good while seeing indigenous domestic violence through the roof still 15 years later.

Frankly, I won’t pay too much attention to what Jacqui, the RSL or the Shrine CEO say. Very few nowadays have two pieces of military credibility to rub together.

For example:

Shrine of Remembrance CEO Dean Lee told Today the disgraceful behaviour was difficult to watch, admitting he got “a bit emotional”.

Yet, the note to his image says:

Dean Lee says he’s deeply attached to the Shrine as his father, great grandfather and brother-in-law have served in the Defence Force.

Let’s have a look at the bonafides of this bloke, from the Shrine webpage:

Dean Lee was appointed Chief Executive Officer at Victoria’s Shrine of Remembrance in July 2015. He provides strategic and governance support to the Shrine of Remembrance Trustees and operational leadership to the Shrine, its executive team and personnel. Dean is an accomplished executive professional with more than 30 years international experience in commercial, not-for-profit and government roles spanning the commemorative, tourism, membership and environment sectors. Dean holds a Bachelor of Applied Science and Executive MBA and has achieved professional certification with the Australian Institute of Company Directors, Project Management International and the Australian Institute of Management.

Did I miss the part where he slipped on a uniform to defend liberty, or to carry on the work? I don’t think so.
Deep deeper into these types of organisations, and this is 75% of what you find. Looks good on the CV.

Our society is literally insane.

Babylonian level insane. Carthage level insane.

Consider the background of this article and the publication it is published in. The same society and publication that cheers on women joining the army and being drafted into the storm trooper brigades in Victoria on the basis that there is no physical difference between males and females, that will cheer and gin up a mob against anyone who says so. Simultaneously publishes articles that are explicitly about boys being vastly physically stronger and faster than girls.

Struth once they lockup regional and rural QLD, likely Oct/November, I think you’re going to find those areas become unbearable simply by virtue of the fact that they have not been exposed to the lunacy at all, and so have not built up any sort of mental immunity / blase attitude towards it. And when it arrives, the dobbing, mobs and shaming and temper tantrums will be off the charts, add in rural town culture and it could get very bad.

Particularly made worse because a lot of boomers have escaped the city to these places to get away from ‘the virus’ so you’ve also now got a high rate of ultra motivated, activist, covid karens compared to the small, still lockdown innocent population.

Also options are vastly more limited, shops etc, once they bring restrictions in.

It could get very hard.

I hope not, rural QLD is the last bastion of the old Australia left untouched by this madness in the entire country. I really, really, hope not.

The vaxx sales job – CMO’s, all governments, plus the Choir – has been “This is our roadmap back to freedom”. Despite the knowledge that there is no real herd immunity available against the Rona.

There has been a bit of cautious fluffing about ‘New Normal’, just enough for arse cover when the hard questions fall. But that is certainly not part of the bargain for 97.3% of the vaccinated.

Just a pity that he did not bring in the stats from Kerala province…. While Kerala included Ivermectin in their state’s guideline in April, they restricted it’s use to only in Class B — severe cases or those with associated disease, making its use much less than if mild cases were allowed. This meant it was reserved as a late treatment if used at all. Finally, Kerala abandoned Ivermectin use altogether on August 5, 2021. …

Victoria breaks record with 766 new Covid cases
The state has recorded its highest daily case number throughout the whole pandemic, with 766 new infections. Four Victorians have also died with the virus.

There is no correlation between Kung Flu infections and lockdowns.

Because the Victorian premier is a poorly educated peasant who’s never had a real job, I expect we’ll be locked down again during the 2022 winter flu season as his motivation has nothing to do with public health, but an ideological desire to control people..

Its not fascism if you get the employers to do it… or something.

The new Exposed Port Worker (Restrictions on Access) Directions address the risks posed by exposed vessels. These are subject to the Exposed On-Board Worker Directions (No. 2).

About 12,000 vessels visit WA ports each year.

The Directions apply to all commercial ports in Western Australia and include anyone who has contact with an exposed vessel. Implementation will be a staged approach to limit the potential impact on port activities.

From 12.01am, October 15, port workers will need to have had at least their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine to access an exposed vessel, carry out a service in connection with an exposed vessel or interact with crew. These workers will need to be fully vaccinated by 12.01am, November 12.

WA Health will conduct a pop-up vaccination clinic at Fremantle Port on September 30 to make it easier for workers to get the COVID-19 vaccine. As part of the initial 1A cohort, port workers have had priority access to vaccinations since February 22, 2021.

Nothing in the Directions prevents unvaccinated port workers from embarking or performing work on an unexposed vessel or coming into close contact with people from an unexposed vessel.

It will be the responsibility of the employer to collect and maintain records of vaccinated workers.

Cavers find snakes but no genies in Yemen’s ‘Well of Hell’ (22 Sep)

A team of Omani cavers has made what is believed to be the first descent to the bottom of Yemen’s fabled Well of Barhout—a natural wonder shunned by many locals, who believe it is a prison for genies.

The forbidding ‘Well of Hell’, whose dark, round aperture creates a 30-metre (100 foot) wide hole in the desert floor of Yemen’s eastern province of Al-Mahra, plunges approximately 112 metres (367 feet) below the surface and, according to some accounts, gives off strange odours.

Inside, the Oman Cave Exploration Team (OCET) found snakes, dead animals and cave pearls—but no signs of the supernatural.

Wuhan scientists planned to release coronavirus particles into cave bats, leaked papers reveal
New documents show that just 18 months before the first Covid-19 cases appeared, researchers had submitted plans to release skin-penetrating nanoparticles and aerosols containing “novel chimeric spike proteins” of bat coronaviruses into cave bats in Yunnan, China.

They also planned to create chimeric viruses, genetically enhanced to infect humans more easily, and requested $14million from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) to fund the work.

Papers, confirmed as genuine by a former member of the Trump administration, show they were hoping to introduce “human-specific cleavage sites” to bat coronaviruses which would make it easier for the virus to enter human cells.

When Covid-19 was first genetically sequenced, scientists were puzzled about how the virus had evolved such a human-specific adaptation at the cleavage site on the spike protein, which is the reason it is so infectious.

The documents were released by Drastic, the web-based investigations team set up by scientists from across the world to look into the origins of Covid-19.

Darpa refused to fund the work, saying: “It is clear that the proposed project led by Peter Daszak could have put local communities at risk”, and warned that the team had not properly considered the dangers of enhancing the virus (gain of function research) or releasing a vaccine by air.Daszak was also behind a letter published in The Lancet last year which effectively shut down scientific debate into the origins of Covid-19.

“Peter Daszak and the EcoHealth Alliance (EHA) proposed injecting deadly chimeric bat coronaviruses collected by the Wuhan Institute of Virology into humanised and ‘batified’ mice, and much, much more.”

A Covid-19 researcher from the World Health Organisation (WHO), who wished to remain anonymous, said it was alarming that the grant proposal included plans to enhance the more deadly disease of Middle-East Respiratory Syndrome (Mers).
“The scary part is they were making infectious chimeric Mers viruses,” the source said.

“These viruses have a fatality rate over 30 per cent, which is at least an order of magnitude more deadly than Sars-CoV-2.

“If one of their receptor replacements made Mers spread similarly, while maintaining its lethality, this pandemic would be nearly apocalyptic.”

Last night on Paul Murray was Vic Dominello, the NSW Minister responsible for the Jab Passport – the same Vic Dominello who, live on the teev, showed (presumably) the effects of an adverse reaction to the jab – Bell’s Palsy.

He said that at the moment people could upload their own Immunisation Report to their Services NSW app. Which would mean that there would be no privacy concerns – no breaking of the privacy laws – because the person themselves has allowed the information to be divulged.

He went on to say that any marrying of the two data sets would not be in place when NSW “opens up” in mid October – so how will all this controlling of the population work and is it really possible to introduce these measures at some later date when everyone is already going about their business?

He was then asked that when finally everything is in place, how would business especially small business manage the checking of patrons’ vaccination status. He replied that the customer would be able to manage it if the business was too busy making coffee etc. wtf?

Is this really the robust system that they’ve been selling the community? Does the government think that the risk of the huge fines for serving an unvaccinated person will be enough to control everyone?
Or will everyone including the business say, f*ck it!

Nazis, Nazis everywhere. From The Oz…..

“Terrorism expert Greg Barton says far-right extremism a ‘long-term’ concern

A terrorism expert has highlighted how this week’s violent tradie protests in Melbourne show a concerning grooming and rise in far-right extremism.

Protesters vandalised the CFMEU headquarters in Melbourne on Monday, while bottles, flares and rocks were hurled at police through the CBD streets on Tuesday.

Traffic on the West Gate Bridge was also held up as protesters marched, while the Shrine of Remembrance was trashed on Wednesday.

Protesters have taken to the streets following the Andrews government’s decision to make the Covid-19 vaccine mandatory for workers in the construction sector.

While tradies have been involved, Victoria Police say the protests have been hijacked by far-right extremists.

Speaking about the riots, Deakin University terrorism expert professor Greg Barton said far-right extremism was a long-term concern.

He used the deadly 2019 shootings at a mosque in Christchurch as an example of how just one lone wolf far-right extremist could inflict terrifying violence.

“After the Christchurch terror attack by an Australian shooting dead 51 worshippers in cold blood, we know that one lone actor can cause immense damage,” he told ABC on Thursday morning.

“And that’s a risk even this week with these sort of protests. But longer term, the larger risk is just the corrosion of our social cohesion, turning ourselves against each other and fuelling hate.

“It’s particularly concerning for anyone who sees themselves as a visible minority.

“It undermines all of the things that we think are good about Melbourne and Victoria and Australia.”

Protesters have vowed to take to the streets every day, with police guarding the CFMEU headquarters in Melbourne on Thursday.

Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Shane Patton said Tuesday’s crowd of protesters were “angrier” and consisted of people who were not just tradies.

“We know from what we have been monitoring that people are being encouraged to put on high-vis gear, to put on workwear, to come in under the cover of a crowd,” he said.

“They’re not necessarily tradespeople, but people who are tied up with the Freedom Rally, people who are tied up with other issue-motivated groups who seek to hide under the cover of this demonstration.”

On Wednesday, 215 people were arrested in Melbourne’s CBD.”

Looking at the footage of the last few minutes of the protest at the Shrine, I saw several cops form a line across and fire at retreating protestors.

It’s an adaptation of the dated military tactic of ‘Marching Fire’ or ‘Walking Fire’. Dated because it doesn’t work in an era where the opposition has automatic weapons and a desite to resist.

“The psychological value of marching fire was quickly recognized. Marching fire was seen as a boost to the morale of the assault troops. It was hoped that enemy troops would lose courage if they heard bullets flying around them, if they believed that their position was known to the attackers.”

But it works a treat on unarmed and non-violent civilians standing in the open with no cover.

The video of the cops doing that at the Shrine was the most disgusting thing I’ve seen since the last US Presidential election.

For a laugh a gruinaid review of a show ABOUT the last man in the world..
https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2021/sep/22/y-the-last-man-review-a-stale-male-manbaby-mess
Her complaint: It doesn’t focus on the ladies enough.

There is much to say about the protagonist of Y: The Last Man (Disney+ in the UK), had we but time and space. For the sake of practicality, let us confine commentary to this: having a whining slacker manbaby as the sole surviving male after a mysterious plague wipes out the rest of XY humanity and upon whom the future of everything depends feels … yeah, about right. Why not get this last undeserved heap of attention, resources and every other goddamned thing shovelled at your emblematically incompetent ass?
….

So off to a fine start, the “hero” is pretty well as depicted in the source material..

The effects of an undiversified society become evident: the workforces responsible for keeping the power on, the supply chains moving and the clean water flowing are male-dominated and grind to a halt.

You can hear the REEEEEEE!!!!! already as she is forced to look at a truth as entertainment..

The Republican government is wiped out and the designated survivor is Democratic congresswoman Jennifer Brown (Diane Lane and a blow-dry that should get separate billing).
..
Meanwhile, Brown’s daughter Hero (Olivia Thirlby) and her transman friend Sam (Elliot Fletcher) – the convulsions the makers must have had trying to decide what to do when updating 2002 source material about a chromosome-based pandemic to take account of a gender-fluid world that is trying to abandon the binary system upon which the entire inciting event depends – are trying to find a way from New York to Washington DC.

Mmmmmyessss, the “world” is trying to abandon the binary system…. “the world” being mentally ill people apparently.


With such a setup – a woman-dominated world, and the chance to start from scratch – you feel that creator Eliza Clark should be pushing at an open door. Yet – at least in the episodes released for review – there seems to be no urge to lean into the possibilities.

Im sure there is plenty of time for reverting to mud huts, cannibalism and bitching..


as the series progresses, signs of hope that Yorick will be relegated further into the background, the female characters will come further to the fore, and that it will start to exploit some of the gyno-opportunities offered by the premise.

See above, mud huts and vagina based agriculture…

In all her review she seems to have missed a small, important thing..

I have a dilemma. My mother is now on a level 4 Home Care package and we are trying to prepare for the next stage which will be nursing home unless she dies in her favourite chair by the window. I planned to take her for a visit to Darwin to see Mindle Beach and a few other things, and while there, give her a tour of a reputedly very good nursing home Pearl.

However to tour Mum has to have been vaccinated for Flu or Covid and she reuses flu having had a bad reaction years ago. I checked and they will let her tour is she has had one of the covid shots, but any family with her have to have been vaccinated – which rules me out. But my bro could take her in with a list of questions from me.

So which one? Phizer or Astra? She is leaning toward Astra due to the long gap between shots she feels that would be better. But I cant remember what the one was that Gabs dear Dad had the horrible reaction to, it breaks my heart that we have to do this invasion, that our hands are tied, if it kills her well she had a dicky heart in CHD anyway, didn’t she?

“Helensays:
September 23, 2021 at 11:40 am”

Helen,

My father, my mother and my step-father have all had AZ. I’ve also had my first AZ jab with no reactions.

My father has had no reactions to both jabs
My stepfather has had no reactions to both jabs
Now as for my mother…..after her first AZ jab back in May she became seriously ill….she could not walk. In the hospital I asked the specialist if it was a reaction to the AZ jab ….the doctor dismissed it and I was a little perplexed by her instant dismissal. My sister thought it was related to the jab…anyway I have come to the conclusion that what made my mother collapse and unable to walk was something else which I won’t divulge. She spent four weeks in hospital….and she’s fine now. She, along with my step-father, had their second AZ jab in August…with no reaction.

I think AZ is the better vaccine…..I didn’t want to have it. I’ve never felt endangered from Covid…although I did worry about my elderly parents…but I will need to be jabbed in order to visit my elderly father in Perth.

Hope that helps….and here’s my caveat…I respect anyone that chooses not to be jabbed and I’m certainly opposed to vaccine passports but I’m going to need one in order to enter the totalitarian state of WA, thanks to that Maniac McClown.

It’s an adaptation of the dated military tactic of ‘Marching Fire’ or ‘Walking Fire’. Dated because it doesn’t work in an era where the opposition has automatic weapons and a desite to resist.

Cassie, there is a huge discrepancy as to what is in each vaccine vial. Stew Peters had an interview with Dr Ruby about it recently on Rumble.

Most people are either getting the placebo or a vaccine with a minute quantity of active ingredients. There are always discrepancies between individuals (even if they get equivalent doses) too of course but in this vaccine’s case I suspect if you get the maximum dosage you are going to react no matter what.

Scarily, Ruby says that the booster doses tend to have a higher quantity of active ingredients.

Padre Pio has become one of the world’s most popular saints. There are more than 3,000 “Padre Pio Prayer Groups” worldwide, with three million members. The first St Padre Pio parish in the world was established 16 June 2002 in Kleinburg, Ontario, Canada. There are parishes in Vineland and Lavallette, New Jersey, and Sydney, Australia, and shrines in Buena, New Jersey, and Santo Tomas, Batangas, Philippines, dedicated to Padre Pio. A 2006 survey by the magazine Famiglia Cristiana found that more Italian Catholics pray to Padre Pio for intercession than to any other figure.
