The sick mind that equates making arguments regarding the jab etc, as searching for greatness.
It has always been a scary prospect for KD that someone may step out of the baton charge toward the unarmed protestors and question him for staying in it.
He really has a hang up with non compliance.
Where would he get that from?
If Morrison had invited Abbott into the government and not amped up the economy wrecking, I might have thought about voting LNP. The ‘you don’t matter’ message didn’t go away so I voted UAP. Reading this morning about Kean and Bragg along with the expulsion of Bernie Finn, I am convinced this was the correct decision. I haven’t voted LNP since 2014 now.

Allergy Spender:
The east coast Australian domestic gas market is about 500 PJ annum – which averages out at about 1.4 million GJ/day (1 million GJ in a PJ). Most of this gas is sold on term contracts at between $6-$8/GJ – about a 10% – 15% margin on Queensland CSG wellhead cost.
The Australian gas spot market is running at close to European distress pricing (currently around $36/GJ) because of the physical link with Queensland LNG exports. It’s a market thing.
However the spot market volume is tiny: the AEMO dashboard tells us that yesterday 36,000 GJ traded at the Wallumbilla hub – less than 3% of the total traded volume.
Not exactly “making great profits because of this spike in prices”.
Exactly what Allegra Spender should be doing is shutting the fuck up.
Well played Wentworth.

A flood in fucking Northern NSW has wiped out the entire Australian food producing capacity even though it was producing enough to feed itself three times over before that.
And all the other WEF member nations are experiencing the same issues.
Funny about that.
Here, the WEF is to be laughed at……….two years down the track they still refuse to see truth smacking them in the face, such is their distain for being TOTALLY FUCKING WRONG about everything so far
The WEF was and always has been a conspiracy theory of the tin hat brigade and the fact that they’ve invented a new Sudden Adult Death Syndrome to relieve the vacuous of mind from wondering why jabbed people are dropping dead all around them…in their 30’s and 40’s doesn’t warrant a glance.
There’s some fucking sick cookies here these days.

Shitweasel Bowen is also frantically demonising the gas producers of Australia:
NFI.
Similar to Spender.
Interestingly, Bowen doesn’t think there’s an issue with AGL buying gas $8/GJ and running it through gas turbines to sell electricity at distress prices – equivalent to gas at $36/GJ.
Or chortling as its super cheap, $zero marginal cost, renewable electricity goes into the distress market at $300/MWh.
But Bowen has a plan:
Be of good cheer.

Big Nambas – SO glad you beat the scourge! In spite of my vehement opposition to the jab, I have never taken this virus lightly. And in spite of the now established data of a mortality rate not worse than a bad dose of influenza, I have always been concerned about the evidence that it is, after all, a “gain-of-function” pathogen. For that reason alone, we have felt it imperative to take every step in the last two years to establish maximum fitness and good health for our age.

On such things I’ve been amused that Chalmers has been fleeing for the exit on nuclear power and Marles vamoosed on Virginias. It’s like nuclear stuff to the ALP is a cross to a vampire.
Then the LNP who did zilch about nuclear power during the last eight years all suddenly started to screech at Labor about it yesterday. That was hilarious too.
Last night I mused to myself if the ALP hates gas, and hates coal, and hates dams (eg. for pumped storage), and hates nuclear power stations what are we going to do for electricity the three days a week when the wind isn’t blowing?
Probably doesn’t matter much since by hating nuclear subs too we’ll get absorbed by the Chinks, who don’t give a flying frig about Gaia.
LOl.
ussr will be pissed off.
Fairly pointless getting vaccinated against a disease you’ve already had.
Vicki, the pharmacist who Novavax’d me gave the bottle a decent shake. I reckon that would be standard.
We should anyway Vicki. I had surgery at the beginning of the year, I asked the surgeon why he chose me for this particular surgery? He said even though I was in great pain I had forced myself to keep fit and use the damaged bits. Not many do, so the damage gets worse from neglect. I’ll see if I can get an X-ray to put up.
When Climate Loons run this Chicken Little line we rightfully give them stick.
In fact, a changing climate (which it has done for eons) is a far more plausible explanation for extraordinary downpours than WEF cloud seeding.
In fact, I thought they wouldn’t administer the vax within three months of contracting the bug anyway.

Nationals leader David Littleproud slams Chris Bowen’s comments on nuclear energy and calls for a ‘mature conversation’ (10 Jun)
Dutton’s plan to fast-track nuclear submarines (9 Jun)
The Lib’s Ted O’Brien (don’t ask “who?”, he’s Shadow Minister for Climate & Energy!) also has been pushing nuclear power this week, which is a fine backflip since Dutton said that nuclear wasn’t in their policy platform less than a fortnight ago.
That’s it Stuth, from now on you’re Titus’ed and there’s no coming back.

Has any country ever enforced a zero debt policy on its government? I could see only one exception: the cost to run an election. Apart from that, if there’s insufficient funds, the politicians’ pay is the first thing to get cut. Maybe allow debt by plebiscite for exceptional and limited circumstances such as war.

No capacity was lost.
Some crops were either destroyed or couldn’t be harvested.
The latest example is lettuce.
Lettuce matures in 6-8 weeks, so the shortage won’t last long. Probably less than that because they will be planting varieties which can be harvested before full maturity. Normally not an economic proposition but elevated prices will make it worthwhile.
But, all in all, not a big deal. Crops are lost to hail, wind, cyclones, floods and frost all the time.
After all, we do live in a land of droughts and flooding rains.

Continued manipulation of temperature records by BoM to enhance the global warming myth (from Jo Nova).
Think tank IPA’s senior fellow Dr Jennifer Marohasy said it had been a cold start to winter but because the Bureau of Meteorology had closed down weather stations and set limits on stations recording cold temperatures, it made comparisons difficult.
As Jennifer Marohasy says, they’ve closed long standing stations, and set limits of minus 10.4 C so if Australia were to break our long time cold records we’ll never even know it. Charlottes Pass in Australia reached minus 23 in 1994. How can we even measure that with thermometers that “stop” at minus ten?
Rosie – I have just read the Lancet study – thanks. Not unexpectedly, it concluded that the risk of myocarditis et al from the gene vaccines was “rare”. I will leave it to others to examine the efficacy of the methodology employed in this conclusion & indeed, in respect to the research itself.
However, I am currently reading the very fine work of Ian Plimer’s “Green Murder”, and it is enlightening to consider what he has to say about current research publications and their connections with vested interests. I can’t say that I would any longer have much confidence in much of the published work in all fields where Big Money is involved. And where does this leave Science and the Academy???? God only knows! We are at a very dangerous stage in the integrity of western science and “knowledge” in general.

I had a debate back in the mid 90’s with some RAAFies that fighters would largely be replaced by UAVs in our lifetime.
Some could see it, but others could not. The latter just saw an F/A 18 with the seat removed.
The point is that there are tremendous savings in removing human crew, because you don’t have to worry about protecting the lives of the crew. You save the weight of the crew and their survival gear for starters, plus the display parts of the avionics, plus all the double and triple-redundancy in hydraulics and electrics. It becomes a completely different piece of kit. In fact, it becomes almost as expendable as the munitions it carries.
The only issue back then was comms, which is largely resolved now.

COVID Long Haul Management with PD-1 Blockers | Ex-Vivo Study
Drbeen Medical Lectures
In this important work the researchers explored the immune dysregulation observed in the COVID long-haul patients. They then used PD-1 blockers to explore if the dysregulated immune system could be restored.
PD-1 blockade counteracts post-COVID-19 immune abnormalities and stimulates the anti-SARS-CoV-2 immune response
A substantial proportion of patients who have recovered from coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) experience COVID-19-related symptoms even months after hospital discharge. We extensively immunologically characterized patients who recovered from COVID-19. In these patients, T cells were exhausted, with increased PD-1+ T cells, as compared with healthy controls. Plasma levels of IL-1?, IL-1RA, and IL-8, among others, were also increased in patients who recovered from COVID-19. This altered immunophenotype was mirrored by a reduced ex vivo T cell response to both nonspecific and specific stimulation, revealing a dysfunctional status of T cells, including a poor response to SARS-CoV-2 antigens. Altered levels of plasma soluble PD-L1, as well as of PD1 promoter methylation and PD1-targeting miR-15-5p, in CD8+ T cells were also observed, suggesting abnormal function of the PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint axis. Notably, ex vivo blockade of PD-1 nearly normalized the aforementioned immunophenotype and restored T cell function, reverting the observed post-COVID-19 immune abnormalities; indeed, we also noted an increased T cell-mediated response to SARS-CoV-2 peptides. Finally, in a neutralization assay, PD-1 blockade did not alter the ability of T cells to neutralize SARS-CoV-2 spike pseudotyped lentivirus infection. Immune checkpoint blockade ameliorates post-COVID-19 immune abnormalities and stimulates an anti-SARS-CoV-2 immune response.
Big talk, no follow through.

On Iceberg Lettuce.
Not wanting to start a Lettuce War, obviously, but Icebergs are arguably the most disappointing salad vegetable.
Pale, tasteless, watery things that bring no joy to the meal. Give me Oak, or Cos/Gem.
No surprise that they are critical ingredients in Ronald’s and the Colonel’s offerings.
Iceberg is a good carrier for spicy pork mince. You can also slice it into a wedge and grill it on a plate and top with other veggies and dressing. Mmmmm.
I made lettuce soup with it once when there was a glut and I was poor. Add parmesan for punch.
Kos “lettuce” is inedible rabbit food.
Sweet, fresh iceberg is to die for if you’re a real Strayan.
War declared, Faustus, and I’ll keep going until I take Kiev!
You haven’t tried my caesar salad, Tom! I use the baby Cos and disregard their squeals as I pull them apart.
Anchovies, flaked parmesan, bacon, grilled tenders, quartered eggs, simple dressing. Instead of croutons, I put in roasted, salted chick peas for crunch. There is never any left.
Letteuce wars, eh?
De gustibus non est disputandam and all that…
But a Caesar salad should be made with Cos lettuce (or Romaine, as the Yanks call it).
In which case the Iceberg was the substitute, and a poor one at that since they have little nutritional value.
Take that!
Always ready to try new things, Calli — even rabbit food. What time is lunch tomorrow?
Lol, Tom. Roger, I meant that if you couldn’t get Titanic-killer you could go for Cos.
Caesar without cos? Horror!
Cos over iceberg anyday. Not even close.
Here is my recipe for Caesar salad dressing:
Ingredients
1 raw egg
2 teaspoons of sugar
1 teaspoon of sea salt flakes
A few grinds of black pepper
1 crushed garlic clove
1 teaspoon of mustard
¼ of a teaspoon of anchovy paste (optional)
Juice of ½ a lemon
40ml of Worcestershire sauce
Dash of balsamic vinegar
1 cup of olive oil (approx.)
Method
Combine egg, sugar, salt, pepper, garlic, mustard, and anchovy paste in a 500ml jug and whisk until thoroughly combined and smooth.
Add the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and balsamic vinegar and whisk until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Very slowly begin to whisk in the olive oil. At first, add only a very small amount of oil at a time, whisking vigorously and without stint. The mixture should actually thicken as it starts to emulsify, after which time the speed at which the oil is added can be increased slightly. Add oil until the total volume is approximately one and a quarter cups.
Time to start on the merits of Romaine and endive.
Can I come to your house for lunch??? ……but thanks for the recipe Calli – especially the salted chick peas. “Grilled tenders” – chicken tenderloins?
Hey! This is great!
Gee you’re a chef, Hugh!
My dressing is a plop of whole egg mayo, loosen with lemon juice and olive oil and pop in a spoonful of Dijon. Lazy cook.

Oven tray, parchment, salt on top and maybe some chilli flakes or cayenne. Oven 180C. Cook until the outside is crunchy.
A great low carb snack and full of goodness and fibre. Better than crisps.
Scrap lunch tomorrow, Calli. I’ll pop in tonight for the roast pork. I’ll bet your apple sauce is to die for.

The top of the totem pole…
LOS ANGELES — An openly transgender cleric from San Francisco, who made history last year with an appointment as a bishop by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, has resigned amid allegations of racism after firing the pastor of a predominantly Latino congregation.
The Rev. Megan Rohrer, who uses the pronoun “they,” led one of the church’s 65 synods, overseeing nearly 200 congregations in Northern California and northern Nevada. They were elected in May 2021 to serve a six-year term as bishop of the Sierra Pacific Synod.
In a letter to the synod Saturday, Rohrer said they were resigning because of “the constant misinformation, bullying and harassment” they experienced after the synod voted to remove the pastor of Mision Latina Luterana on Dec. 12, the Feast of the Virgin of Guadalupe, a significant holiday for congregants of the Stockton, California, church.
Or Iceberg.
Iceberg lettuce is like white bread….Australians only ate it because we didn’t know any better.
You’re a racist, Roger.

Your logic train is …. deficient. Like you.
Count me in for the roast pork too.
Apple sauce is simple too. Grannys, sliced. Half a lemon, juiced plus the zest. A soupspoon of sugar. As the boys are here, I left out the apple brandy. Slurp of water to stop it catching. Boil until tender. Mash.
The pork is way too rich to add anything else to the sauce, you want something sweet and acidic to cut the fat.

Dock leaves and lettuce leaves are most useful during toilet paper shortages.
Fair go…lettuce is a vegetable, not a race.
And not beyond criticism, I might add.
In fact, it’s a national conversation we need to have.
How about baby spinach and rocket? My go-to staples. After they go into the salad bowl the sky’s the limit!
Also try balsamic/brown sugar roasted pumpkin, roasted beetroot (cubed). Coat bottom of salad bowl with hummus, add green stuff and pumpkin and beetroot. Sprinkle with cranberries and roasted chickpeas. A few slices of grilled haloumi. Top with some pickled red onion. Dressing of evoo.
Again…nothing left over. It is Dysoned up.
Roger, you’re one of my favourite commenters here. Humourless dullards reading the Cat, who have no concept of tongues in cheeks, may need the obvious explained to them.
No cloves?
When my wife makes roast pork, she does a side dish of buttery cabbage with onion and caraway seeds that is pretty amazing.
No cloves. Mum used to put them in. Good thinking!
Pork and cabbage is a marriage made in heaven. Add in some roasted nuts – walnuts or pecans. Not tonight – small boys here, but will introduce such goodness in a few years time. Also red cabbage, nice and tart is good too.
Carraway seeds — great flavour (and cooking subject). But not as subtle as linseed straight from the paddock, nor as pretty as blue linseed waves shimmering on the horizon.
Ha!
You think I jest?
I’m deadly serious…well, at least about Cos in Caesar.
I seem to recall linseed and canola both being in flower when I was last driving through western Victoria.
Quite stunning.
Some good news at least: Laurel and Hardy’s Way Out West is on You Tube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X_rH0zjpzY
One of the top 10 best ever comedies.
just an everyday nutter
when I was a wee young sprite, we would go on school excursions to see laurel & hardy and charlie chaplin movies.
Check out what DefenceHQ cares about.
Circular firing squads make much more sense than reading any of the illogical gibberish the above idiots just can’t help spouting, incessantly. Although I did enjoy being denounced by the first one above as a “big government something or other”
If they’ve ever had an original thought in their pointless lives, then I’m identifying as a Swahili Chieftain (again)
The tweets below it are a laugh too.
Yeah, something tells me people are going to be reluctant to give up their guns. Just a hunch.
You’ve made me hungry you buggers.
Luckily the wife is coming home with a big Lebanese lamb kebab.
I may be gone some time.
‘Stupid’ gas policies led to energy crisis in eastern states, say former premiers
Amid warnings that spiralling gas prices on Australia’s east coast could send some manufacturers broke and spur an outbreak of food price inflation, Mr Carpenter and Mr Barnett decried what they labelled the “stupid” decisions of successive governments.
Consumers paying the price
In a rare interview since leaving politics in 2008, Mr Carpenter said it defied belief that Australia had allowed itself to run short of gas supplies when it was the world’s equal-largest producer.
He said a succession of political leaders had been persuaded by false arguments against domestic obligations, lamenting that it was ordinary consumers who were paying the price.
It’s quite fun, reading what’s been written in the past twenty years, with access to the North Vietnamese archives, and realizing how completely the silly old duffer fell for the Party line, about what a bunch of gallant little Robin Hood’s the North Vietnamese were.
This is AIDS Grim Reaper all over again.
The Elf Authorities are trying to generalize the approach to a disease which is confined to very specific demographics and very specific behaviours.
Excellent – we are still essaying cooking.
Although I’d rather be on the Bonneville clad in the White Levi’s jacket and adidas boxers while doubling the hottest rock chick in human history.
Buster Keaton’s visual gags have been reprised in a surprising number of modern films.
I recently saw the falling house stunt repeated in a TV ad…that’s nearly 100 years after he first did it.
“Genius” is an over used term, but the way Keaton exploited the potential of the moving film camera for visual comedy surely qualifies him for it.
Quite so.
I predict we will be being offered “baby lettuce” within a month and back to normal in 6 weeks.
I will survive.
All gardeners are a bit nutty. Believe me.
We live in ever-thwarted hope.
And, if you’re going to display nuttiness, get it right. It’s Linnaeus, not Linnea, numpty. You have now officially failed Ident 101. Come back next year.
2022.06.10 The Great Ukraine Blame Game Has Begun!
Gonzalo Lira II
If only that “inefficient” artillery grinding down the Ukies came in rainbow colours.
What the … ?
I pop out for the afternoon and the conversation turns to wog tucker.
Cats, one has been way too self indulgent of late (again).
We need to discuss the importance of the inflation rate and what it just might mean for revolting peasants.
Or the dire state of modern j’ism.
Or we could watch a video of Miss Planet‘s latest (very) slinky moves.
“Bermb throwing” not even mentioned, until it was …
Yes it is.
Instant nostalgia for cold winter evenings in Germany, tucking into Jägerkohl, a casserole of pork, spec, game mince, whatever local sausage, red cabbage – cooked with caraway seeds and white wine.
Bit of a shit being at a Shell Roadhouse looking at Chiko rolls as the only local source of cabbage.
just another chimpout
The United States and its allies are planning a “buyers’ cartel”. The Western powers want to reduce Russia’s oil revenues with price caps. wion
bwahahahahahahha ahahahhahahahahah
For poor ol’ Arks …
Chin up, Squire – you get to restore it all over again
Wogs & their tucker aren’t always a bad thing y’know.
Which I could do without, you pompous numpties.
The falling house is a feature in the MUSEO Sofia something in Madrid. I always stop and watch it.
Oh and thankyou Bruce of WA for the easy Spanish baked egg recipe, someone, not me, made it today with a couple of little alterations and was very pleased with it.
The other day here in Saudi my dashboard told me that it was 51 degrees outside. I didn’t even know that was a number.
German food is under rated.
In an act of culinary rebellion, I made a pot of borsch this afternoon. Found organic beetroot reduced to clear at the local Coles and seized my chance.
Even though it is the first day, I have to say it tastes really good.
And as beetroot is a tonic for the liver, any indulgence this evening has already been atoned for…
Salvo – like JC and various others (who shall remain senza nome) on this esteemed blogue – do you identify as an Italiano?
Enquiring menti and all that …
There needs to be more of this, Cats.
There is a pub in Port Melbourne which was owned by Chermans back in the 80’s. The lady was Miss Bavaria (or similar) from the late 50’s/ early 60’s and had calendar pin-up shots around the place. The food was excellent in weather like this. I particularly remember the smoked poor cock* with mash and cabbage. Maybe that is where my cocksmoking habit started.
…
* Pork hock.
Adam, that’s almost incomprehensible.
40 degrees and I’m feeling all of the fluids sucked out of the body.
Neil Oliver – ‘it’s in their interests for the population to be docile, overmedicated, unthinking’
I imagine a slightly-charred Model A is an easier project than a slightly-charred Tesla.
Rule of law?
Pfft.
Yep – sausages and saurkraut, washed down with much amber fluid. Served of course, by a madchen
Some people may see a former Miss Bavaria openly showcasing past glories as toxic femininity. I’d see it as the reverse.
““Genius” is an over used term, but the way Keaton exploited the potential of the moving film camera for visual comedy surely qualifies him for it.”
I agree. I also think that Stan Laurel was an equal genius. I prefer Keaton and Laurel and Hardy over Chaplin.
A few years ago I watched Stan & Ollie, which was sublime. Steve Coogan played Stan perfectly. Coogan, despite being a Corbynista far-left moron, is a very good actor.
Adam, are the nights cool?
It’s all good – the local tribal elders laid on a “smoking ceremony.”
