Gina Rinehart says look at the sun’s orbit. Apparently it takes 230 million years. Does she mean rotation, solar activity?
That would most likely be the sun’s orbit around our galaxy (The Milky Way)
That’s about the time I’ve seen mentioned for one orbit.

Hmm found a 1st ed hardcover Glory Road, w dust jacket. It can land here for about $50… I’ve spent more on books I haven’t previously read, but not much and not many.
Loved TMIAHM and Starship Troopers. Could an author, even a great, really have three essential books? Most have but one.

His early stuff was great. Lots of excellent stories, “The Puppet Masters” was fabulous.
Clifford Simak was also great, “All Flesh is Grass.” Great story.

Heinlein in Dimension is worth reading:
http://www.panshin.com/critics/Dimension/hdcontents.html
H hated it and refused to talk to the author.
I think I mentioned here once I did my Masters (Qualifying) on Heinlein’s later fiction. His stuff after Time Enough for Love is pretty bad. Good SF concepts marred by simplistic characterisations and an obsession with sex. I had to come up with a few original concepts, and one – not very individual – was the Heinlein Individual, a sort of superman (or woman) who is H distilled. They are good at the things that matter: fighting, navigation (through life as well as geography, surviving etc….
Rather annoying actually, as was H himself in his later years, apparantly.
I found this book very interesting
The story of the scifi magazine Astounding and its primary figures –
John W. Campbell, Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein, L. Ron Hubbard, and the Golden Age of Science Fiction.
Heinlein was a curious character; considering his post war politics his earlier life was unexpected – lefty and sexually adventurous (with strange beginnings to that part of his life)
All four of those guys were a bit out there!
“Tunnel in the Sky” and “Have Spacesuit Will Travel” were quite good.
Rita had a clip of angry journalists asking Dom Perrottet where – *sob* WHERE? – is Kerry Chant??
Perro replied that he is the elected official.
Thanks BoN. Don’t know where you get time to read all that stuff, what with bike riding and feeding the birds.
Bruce O’Newk:
No doubt, BoN, no doubt at all.
My scenario is in the event of a USN CBG taking on the PLAAF in the Taiwan Straits – within range of most of Chinas obsolete MiG 21/ Mig 29 knockoffs, armed with thousands of missiles in a replay of the Korean War mass infantry attacks.
ALPBC staff co-op claims another scalp as Gaven Morris, Head of News says enough. No Quentin Dumpster long goodbye for him. Ita MIA as usual. Another brilliant appointment by the Lieborals.

‘Twere a big story around 2000, but difficult to find now.
…and my Gravatar is the shirt I will be wearing to the shops tomorrow.
Maybe … so why would China risk that?
The scenario could play out without going hot. Say:
An accidental shoot down of one of the Chinese planes interdicting Taiwanese airspace [or ship/sub sunk]. China righteously demands compensation / concessions [too steep for Taiwan]. Taiwan does not comply and China launches cyber attacks and blockades [stops all ships / planes flying in]. If Taiwan escalates – China over reacts blowing up repairable infrastructure (leaving factories it needs intact) and otherwise putting more pressure on Taiwan’s population … which forces a surrender on the basis of better red than dead and China promises special treatment maintaining freedoms and the like [and this time means it 🙂 ].
Biden stays out of it as anything US could do will be seen as declaration of war … as he’s in Xi’s pocket and who cares about Taiwan.
Hollywood and NBA etc all wear I stand with PRC paraphernalia …
Done deal.
I know I’m slow but a penny dropped today.
I read in a few articles that hospitalisations were dropping ‘thanks to the vaccine.’
I suddenly realised why 80 percent (or thereabouts) was a magic number.
It means nobody can ever claim – or should that be, point out? – that hospitalisations are declining because the virus is so endemic that acquired immunity is now dominating. It allows governments to say ‘we did this.’
Quite an interesting exit email from Jim Betts, current NSW Planning Department secretary, who was meant to become the state’s most senior public servant. Dominic Perrottet has appointed Michael Coutts-Trotter to Department of Premier and Cabinet instead.

I smell the fragrance of the vegan mafia in this one.
Complete rubbish imo even if GHG did anything, which they don’t since Earth is a water planet.
from yesterday … Dr Peter Johnston
Not just aircraft Winston, many land based missiles to help defend the Taiwan Strait. I don’t think the USN would go there, it would opt for a much more stand off strategy because it would be slaughtered in the Taiwan Strait.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they have droned the older aircraft. It is the Flanker series that is the bigger problem. Old airframes but retrofitted with AESA radar and China claims it has an air to air missile, the PL-15, with a longer range than the AMRAAM. They now also have Flankers as growler equivalents.
The USN would suffer serious losses no matter even at a stand off distance. It seems odd to me that the US would refuse to support Taiwan because of possible losses. What’s the point of so much firepower if you run away in fear of losing some of it? If the USA doesn’t intervene China has a freehand in Asia, XI becomes an emperor god, and China can intimidate Asian countries at will. It is a terrible dilemma for the USA because they have to expect serious losses.
What surprises me is the rapidity of China’s military technology. We don’t know about the quality of but it is dangerous to underestimate that.
The unvaxxed get an exemption from rates? Is the exemption transferable?

What surprises me is the rapidity of China’s military technology.
Why should that surprise you? How many General Milleys are there?
How many have accepted CCP $$’s in return for secret military technology?
We do from Iranian munitions. As I said the USS Mason got shot at by multiple Chinese anti-ship missiles individually and in convoy, Not a scratch on her scaly hide. That was in 2016. It’s five years later, but I doubt Chinese technology has advanced greatly enough to overwhelm a twenty year old DDG like the Mason. Not yet at least. But yes they’re advancing rapidly.
What am I missing.
Coutes-Trotter is part of the nomenklatura. There is no difference between Lieboral and Labor.
On Paul Murray with Rita as the host; she showed footage of an interview on ABC – Michael Rowland & Chris Minns who was asked about Perrottet’s Catholicism.
Minns said he wasn’t going to comment on that and nor would anyone in the Liars. Rowland responded with “what about others are saying about it?” Minns refused to answer about Perrottet’s as a practising Catholic because he said he is a practising Catholic.
Fine words, did not enter the gutter and simultaneously stood up for his own beliefs.
So Perrottet is being advised by Tania Pliebersek via her heroin pushing hubby? And every confidential thought bubble will be either leaked by Labor or used for future blackmail [and ICAC investigations].
For any conservative pollie that gets into government: Get rid of every senior Public Servant that has had a hint of working with/for Labor. And then get rid of the rest just to be sure. And fumigate their offices (better yet burn them to purify from the leftard miasma). Bring up a couple of bright ones from middle management – give them promotions and salary increases [they’ll do anything to ensure you don’t lose government as they know that they WILL be on the block if that happens…]
Chappelle’s new special is good but not great.
Sticks & Stones was way better.
Gives it to everyone, is genuinely edgy (unlike the now cucked Bill Burr who thinks being edgy is giving it to white women exclusively) but…it runs for 1hour 12mins & it feels like 45mins of trans stories.
IIRC those were silkworm missiles. The comparison isn’t valid. Very old Soviet derived technology.
John H. and Winston S.
Don’t forget that The US have had some time to build decent fishing and surfing resorts ranging from Guam, around Japan and even as far as Diego Garcia.
Alaska has great surfing as well.
Minns is going to small target his way to Premier.
I took it to mean the process of the sun oscillating through the plane of the galactic nebula, from top to bottom as IIRC it’s 450 million years to get back to the original point.

Today Hairy clipped away a very small portion of the covering of Pttosporum leaves over mum birdie’s latest little nest so that we can get a good look into it. It is still very sheltered and she dosen’t seem to mind, she looks up at me with her trusting yellow eyes just as she did before, so I have started talking nest talk to her again. She seems to like it. Like the other one, this nest is so close, only about one metre away and she has now learned the value of enclosure (away from the channel-billed cuckoo attacks) and of shade and shelter from the wild winds such as we had this arvo. Like the other one, this year’s nest is so carefully constructed, the same foundation of sticky-spittle glued together twigs and then a very cleverly woven little basket in which there are now two, in contrast to last year’s four, very hungry little scraps of birdflesh, making wide opening orange-edged yaws for food as the parents shovel it in. We’ve had fun watching her and her sleek, nimble and younger partner (yay!), a newby who seems a bit more dedicated than last year’s cad, as they care for the hatchlings.
Once more a little miracle taking place right under our noses and we only found out yesterday!

Did he write “The Threat From Earth”?
It was an interesting play on words.
I think it was “The Menace From Earth”, but yes, that was one of his.
“Stobor” – “Robots” spelled backwards…
I knew a romance was going on about five weeks ago when I spotted him giving her food from some I had just put out. ‘ullo, ‘ullo, wot’s going on ‘ere now, I sez to her. Wooing her, he was, and she was clearly right into it as well, opening her beak to take the proffered gift as they then few off to canoodle together in the tallest local Norfolk Island pine.

Early reaction to the movie has noted both the realism of its violence (which is due to the historical accuracy of its depictions of battle), and its undertone of Taiwanese nationalism. A review in The Economist avers that the film “[q]uite probably… has the highest number of graphic beheadings of any film anywhere. But they are faithful historical depictions.”[41] As Walter Russell Mead further commented, “This type of movie, done well, can inspire whole societies with nationalist pride, reinforce the prominence of folk heroes (including, quite often, violent ones), and strengthen a people’s togetherness at the expense of foreigners.”[42] C

I have thought for a long time these bizarre rumours are usually planted by the Cathedral.
They actually admitted Q Anon was a troll. The funny part was when they claimed Q Anon supporters were out of control and a violent threat (to them).
Sometimes you get what you ask for.
Australia, the laughing stock
Bizarre rumours need credulous targets.
Too many people not applying critical thinking skills and wanting to be first with the breaking story, no matter how trivial or silly it is.
Ignorant nonsense.
A couple of studies in the metadata were not great – the pooled results were good.
It doesn’t matter how many articles are written, the statistical result still stands.
If you take out the *bad, poor quality!!!!1″ work, then the result STILL stands.
That’s the point of a meta analysis. Or collecting a high number of observations.
Writing nasty things on Wikipedia is not the same as refuting the data.
We will never see the amount of fraud in counting COVID deaths in the US (particularly after subsidies were made available). You will never see the leftist authors of hit pieces compare the Pfizer marketing nonsense to real world efficacy data of their vaccine.
You will never see the same level of scrutiny ever applied to any other drug, ever.
Literally no drugs would ever be approved under the same scrutiny. No drug has EVER worked like that (falsely described as an alleged panacea), living without disease to live long and healthy lives is multifactorial – sanitation, epigenetics, nutrition, better medical imaging, vaccines, antivirals AND vaccines.
Like you rubbishing Ivermectin.
A week in and the Pandora papers archive has not been uploaded.
Meaning there are Cathedral & deep state participants who they don’t want to out.
Tony Blair was an acceptable casualty to throw under the bus.
With the previous tax haven dumps, the archive was uploaded either simultaneously or within 24 hours.
It’s a variant of sealed red shoe tunnel chinese troops rolling down the freeway indictments.
Only so many times you can announce those, and people start thinking about crying wolves.

Overnight on twitter some retard said maybe the Pandora archive hasn’t been uploaded because it’s so big.
If they can upload 2.5 terabytes in 2016 (Panama papers), 3 terabytes in 2021 (Pandora papers) is a piece of piss.
Nah dot, I’ve said very little about ivermectin other than it would be great if it did work but I’m not convinced. I don’t think the evidence is there, I don’t care if people want to take it.
Hydroxychloroquine was provisionally approved in the US in March 2020 then taken off the list in June 2020 but lots of people think that was a conspiracy.
You’ll have to forgive me for being sceptical about anything that appears to have had data falsified.
You know the vaccines are rubbish when Ivermectin AND Molnupiravir had a PR campaign launched against them…for 18 months!
…and the vaccines got emergency use authorisation.
It will be interesting to see how the Cathedral tries to walk away from this mess.
Thanks Tom.
Good to see that honkler clowns are getting another run, even if it’s only with the Pom cartoonists.
correlation is not causation
Well you are wrong, it is, even when the “bad” studies are taken out.
It was certainly a bad decision.
When used in combination and early on, it tends to work. Dosing up people on their deathbed with absurd doses isn’t science.
We all know it’s bullshit.
“Elected officials” now there’s a novel concept. Also tells me that private polling is telling them that a sizable chunk of the NSW public now have had enough. There was always going to be the red pill moment when the lockdowns started effecting enough people or immediate families the tide was going to turn. NSW is obviously already there.
Soldiers in Bendigo, probably just Commandos training on live buildings or even the SOG. Victoria has a Reserve Commando Company. If there were Helicopters involved could be the Regular SF types, I am reliably told they train on real buildings all over the country regularly.
“If it worked it would be a miracle”
Rosie you are as stupid as Nota.
Spurious correlation is very unlikely in a meta analysis after you take out outliers.
Please. Spare me the 1st year stats shit, I published time series macroeconometrics and ordered choice models.
The tax haven dumps show the hypocrisy of the club.
Steve Harker (the Aussie who’s been given stick) was one of the leading pay your fair share types who Swan/Gillard appointed to the Future Fund board because of his spearheading of a corporate initiative of the same name.
Total hypocrite.
The fact that an extreme left media organisation with the whole archive is drip feeding the names & not uploading the archive means they are running a protection racket.
The Ivermectin story is, I suspect, the real scandal in a raft of misinformation, suppression and political bullsh*ttery.
There’s been enough written on how it might work to inhibit replication. Use appears to back that up. When I add in an expired patent and the howls of all the usual suspects, I smell a great big dirty rat.
That the drug has properties other than its original purpose comes as no surprise. There are plenty of precedents. As we were joking yesterday, even Pfizer has one in the stable. We’ll know soon enough – if an expensive “treatment” drug is fast tracked which has the same action (regardless of its chemical makeup) and all the establishment choir are singing its praises.
Okay dot you’ve made your stand.
I don’t agree and I didn’t think ivermectin was even on the radar til August 2020 when Thomas Borody said he’d been trialling it in Sydney.
Any efficacy material in the public domain has been corrupted and twisted to the point where any dispassionate analysis is now impossible.
HCQ and ‘mectin were early favourites and led the charge – then, in the dead of night, a fleet of trucks with 70 million votes for AZ and Pfizer turned up, and here we are.
Alternatively it could be that molnupiravir works and ivermectin doesn’t.
‘Antiviral’ is a pretty big stable.
I blame Trump.

Pope Francis: Climate Change Now Threatens ‘Life Itself’ (7 Oct)
Sorry mate, I still see nothing much happening. A little bit of cooling lately as Arctic sea ice increases, but nothing dangerous. Even extreme weather has been less extreme. Why he is running around with his pants on fire I don’t understand.
I doubt the SF are doing so under the current bullshit.
That said, there is most definitely soldiers all over regional Victoria assisting police by doing random stops of people and asking for their ID. They are clearly checking for absconders from Metro Melbourne. I’ve seen them up close and personal. The ADF is still on loan to Dan’s goons, have no doubt.
As a Catholic I have to say how grateful I am to you BoN for your steadfast commitment to bringing negative stories about Pope Francis to the cat over a period of so many years.
It’s clear that there are rarely, if never, stories about other religious leaders worthy of bringing to our attention.

The guy & the business that consistently wins at law against those who try to sue him into silence.
I can’t think of another “undercover scooper” off hand who’s been so effective at showing the Covid Jab Pushers for being the lying Pushers of Poisons & deniers of treatments they are.
Of course there was also those who went undercover and exposed the horrors of the commercialisation of babies being aborted for their parts to feed Big Pharma & Biotech Companies, that also angryfied investors in Biotech, like JC & notafan/rosie

“Elected officials” now there’s a novel concept. Also tells me that private polling is telling them that a sizable chunk of the NSW public now have had enough. There was always going to be the red pill moment when the lockdowns started effecting enough people or immediate families the tide was going to turn. NSW is obviously already there.”
Quite so…..and Perrottet has taken reasserted control over the government and the Covid narrative…wow, unbelievable, what chutzpah! Here we have a new premier, an elected MP, part of the governing coalition who’s decided to wrest control from unelected health fascists/bureaucrats. I’m sure Perrottet has read the mood in NSW, particularly among business. Any recovery in NSW from Covid will come from business…not from public servants.
Well done Dom.
exactly James what we’ve been saying here since forever
This ‘fact check’ suggests the success in Uttar Pradesh could be attributed to the coincidental lockdown and that the Mexico City success was inconclusive because treatment included aspirin and paracetamol.

Maybe Dan could improve the effectiveness of the Melbourne lockdown with some ivermectin and Aspros.
” that also angryfied investors in Biotech, like JC & notafan/rosie”
Since when has Notafan been an investor in biotech?
Oh and what is “angryfied”? I see the resident low life is making up words again.
Mater,
If I remember this ‘report’ correctly it was a lone wolf, thought by the author of the post to be ‘SAS’ (and in all likelihood pronounced by said author to be ‘sass’ as it was typed into the internet) walking around a shop in Bendigo.
Combined with UN ambulances in Narrabri, no doubt complete with the secret code sign written on the back (good morning rssrsrssr), and people are invited to join the dots.
Join them!
Lots of stuff on twitter about Andrews and IBAC, of course that’s heavily influenced by who I follow.
Hope this is one of those true rumours.
I am too.
He’s not my Pope.
KD I was about to say the same about the UN Ambos, someone being cheeky and seeing how many hits they get on FB. Maters explanation probably closer to the truth and I didn’t realise the reserve boys were still being used in Victoria. I thought Scomo told Dan to sod off over Christmas last year over ADF support.
This is the sort of disgraceful comment srr is notorious for.
Claiming that I profit from and support the abortion industry.
She really is a disgusting lowlife liar.
Didn’t know about a secret code.
I saw a Ute (Ranger) in the Supermarket car park yesterday which had “Fuck you, Dan” written in the dirt on the back tray. I didn’t think such sentiments were secret but!
I share the sentiment. Am I now part of a secret society?
As for Bendigo, I note that the Aussie Disposals there is still open and it’s the equivalent of Best and Less for a significant portion of the city. Wankers looking like wankers in Bendigo, is hardly ground breaking.
“This is the sort of disgraceful comment srr is notorious for.

Correct….and the resident low life should be put on notice.
The shape of things to come Parrot-head’s 1st empirical decision .. handing the top seat at the NSW public serpents table to a drug dealer …..!

Louise Milligan is addicted to finding things that aren’t there to stay in the spotlight.
She wouldn’t be the only one.
Though in her case she’s always been wrong
though not quite on point this is another example of the type of thing I was thinking of.
“The shape of things to come Parrot-head’s 1st empirical decision .. handing the top seat at the NSW public serpents table to a drug dealer …..!”
Coutts-Trotter is not a drug dealer. Yes, he was over thirty-years ago…he served time.
The trouble is that, due to lab testing of all sorts of items for human consumption, the abortion “industry” has come to all our homes in one way or another. The taint of this horror has swept us all up, willing or not.
Cheeky, skinny little prick mate of mine who’s still serving spent some time in the Transport platoon in my battalion a lifetime ago.
The crew were doing some prep work prior to going to Rwanda, and they’d painted up some of their Unimogs – complete with ‘UN’ on the cabin doors.
He snuck into the compound one night with a spray can, and inscribed a C before, and T after the ‘UN’ on one of them. A photo (Polaroid, of course) was then taken, which I saw later.
He reckons it was worth every bit of the mucho RPs that followed.
You take it upon yourself to declare people like Daniel Andrews have left the faith, then when shown to be wrong, you declare that they are disqualified from the faith, while you also support your Pope for telling his Bishops to not even refuse The Eucharist to the likes of Pelosi & Biden, who’s very public Anti-Catholic sins have been boastfully celebrated & promoted for close to longer than Andrews has been alive.
As a Catholic you should be aware of the raving wolves and care more for the lost sheep & lambs they devour than whitewashing the dens that protect the wolves.
Coutts-Trotter is worse than a drug dealer. He’s Plibbers’ husband.
Do the Libs honestly think he’ll keep his trap shut? Idiots.
When Coutts-Trotter got a top public service job sure it was a wtf moment.
But considering how he’s been in various roles for over a decade he must be somewhat competent.
Unlike Mark Scott who was parachuted in from the ABC into a top tier tax payer funded role.
Rosie – I’ve long been doing climate comments and yes sometimes I do commend Francis when he says something laudable. Which he does sometimes. Unfortunately he seems really fixated on the climate lies.
On the other hand he’s not alone, Justin Welby is a notorious woke lefty climate Chicken Little too. But Francis does have a large secular as well as religious influence, larger than Welby’s.
Unfortunately I can’t see the Vatican improving as the Francis faction is going to be in ascendancy for a very long time having stacked the college. Poor Benedict must be sad about the direction Catholicism is going.
“Coutts-Trotter is worse than a drug dealer. He’s Plibbers’ husband.”
LOL…correct!
I can’t believe he goes home and doesn’t talk to his wife about “things’. Having said that, I know three people who worked for Coutts-Trotter and they all speak highly of him.
To be clear:
I did not – not – deploy to Rwanda with elements of the battalion I served with.
By then I was out, and working on the door of an AJ pub – Tatts – in the Ville.
“but considering how he’s been in various roles for over a decade he must be somewhat competent.”
Quite so.
GERMANY reliving the 1930/40s ….

Rita had a clip of angry journalists asking Dom Perrottet where – *sob* WHERE? – is Kerry Chant??
Perro replied that he is the elected official.
Pity he didn’t say she was writing her resignation letter.
