Peace Was Never an Option – Romanian Defense Minister Resigns
From Armstrong Economics –
“Romanian Defence [sic] Minister Vasile Dincu said during an interview that re-negotiating terms with Russia was the only way to end the war. He has been forced to resign due to these beliefs. Dincu took to Facebook to say he could no longer perform his job due to the “impossibility of cooperation with the Romanian president, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.”
“I think my withdrawal from the post is necessary so as to not harm decisions and programs which require fluid command chains and to not block a series of projects which are absolutely necessary for … the ministry and the army,” Dincu continued.
Calls have been growing for foreign leaders to urge Zelensky to talk to Putin to end the growing conflict. The powers that be want war and have already decided our fate. Zelensky signed a decree at the beginning of October to ensure this is a forever war – at least between Ukraine and Russia. Zelensky said that he would never negotiate terms with Putin. “Therefore, we are ready for a dialog with Russia, but with another president of Russia,” Zelensky said. Putin, however, has been willing to speak with Zelensky. “We will either wait for the current president to change his position or wait for the next president to change his position in the interests of the Ukrainian people,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
What Zelensky does not realize is that Putin is a middle-of-the-road guy. The men wishing to secure his place will not be as lenient, which is something my sources have confirmed. Putin has held off on pressure to secure the Donbas by any means necessary. Although that sounds absurd, Zelensky would have a better time negotiating with Putin because others in the Kremlin want more than the Donbas.
Foreign leaders must stop supplying Ukraine with endless funds and military aid to avoid a forever war. Without Western help, Ukraine would have fallen earlier in the year. Others nations, who have nothing to gain but everything to lose by helping Ukraine, should push away from this globalist agenda to propel the world into ruin.”

The dollar amount allocated is in MILLIONS (USD $)
Description: This thrust will obtain insights into physical aspects of natural phenomena such as magnetospheric sub-storms, fire, lightning, and geo-physical phenomena. New fundamental understandings of these phenomena will enable the ability to predict and exploit these physical processes.
A major emphasis of this thrust is to provide predictive models for the interactions between plasmas and electromagnetic waves across a range of energy and length scales, and into new regimes. Specific efforts that fall under this heading are foundational studies on the initiation, propagation, and attachment of lightning, and their associated emissions; the critical factors affecting magnetospheric sub-storms; the generation and amplification of extremely low frequency (ELF)/ultra low frequency (ULF)/very low frequency (VLF) radiation in the ionosphere utilizing the High Frequency Active Aural Research Program (HAARP) transmitter; and understanding and quantifying the interaction of electromagnetic and acoustic waves with the plasma in flames.

What Zelensky does not realize is that Putin is a middle-of-the-road guy.
?????
Believe it or not, he is. Several posts on the Cat have examined this question.
To reiterate, Putin is the hub of an oligarchic system of interrelated ‘clans’ and whilst he is undoubtedly the dominant figure as the arbiter, moderator and has the final say, some of the clans, particularly within Defence and the FSB, are far more hardline. Putin is a master manipulator and has maintained his power by forcing compromises and sometimes setting clans against one another.
There is not a reserve of Alexei Navalny type clones waiting in the wings to pounce on a weakened Putin. Far from it. Putin’s demise (however caused) would very likely see one of the hardline clans ascend to power and the whole structure of Russian politics and global behaviour would change overnight – and not for the better.
So, although it may seem absurd at first glance, Putin is the more moderate middle-of-the-road guy relative to who else will jostle for the position of President when Putin eventually departs. The west can and should do business with Putin but they will never be able to force him to backdown – Russian politics doesn’t work like that.

Funny thing is I could drive out of Arnhem Land after touring Ramingining and Maningrida as one of the first whites ( I ran the second tour in there, ever), through to Black point and Seven spirit bay (Check out Outback Spirit’s Itinerary) yet couldn’t open my mouth around the “done to death” Kakadu national Park.
And I wouldn’t have been anywhere near Arnhem land if the money hadn’t dried up from the smelter closure in Gove.
I also did some of the first tours into the Bungles when nothing existed in there and all camping gear had to be brought in.
There were never any aboriginal paintings there.
Never.
They are made of crumbling soft sandstone, and in bad spirit country.

Better yet, how about a guest post where you can set out your in-depth knowledge and Cats can assess and comment.
The aboriginals conducting the boat tours on Katherine Gorge learned about the bush around them from the white men who lost their jobs to them, after training them.
They didn’t know what a bush apple was until the white man taught them their traditional knowledge.

A culture that never progressed in 40 or so thousand years due to unchristian superstition.

Looking back, I was far too diplomatic as a tour driver.

This is the story of Russia. It’s how power has always been played. Three hundred years ago, it was the the boyars, it took Peter the Great to crush them and consolidate Romanov rule, today it’s the oligarchs and various power clans.

I agree with a lot of what you said St Ruth but you can’t blame the Aborigines from 40,000 years ago for not being Christian.

Interesting comment Calli. One of the support folks on my high lochs ride in April was a full blown climate obsessive who wouldn’t give it a break.

Gillards intent was – as a Fabian Socialist – to cause as much damage as possible by crushing the taxpayer under an avalanche social costs. The issue you describe above could have been easily dealt with by closer examination of the Mediterranean Back recipients and their mates. The same with the Lebanese who go back to Lebanon when they get their pension, then whenever the region shits itself, they demand free airfare and assistance back to Australia. (Mostly they don’t get it, but not for the lack of trying and the stories the media splash on their front pages of ‘appalling conditions’ and terrified children.)

theres nothing mild about this bioweapon
…accumulating evidence suggests that it also affects the pan-vasculature in the extrapulmonary systems by directly (via virus infection) or indirectly (via cytokine storm), causing endothelial dysfunction (endotheliitis, endothelialitis and endotheliopathy) and multi-organ injury. Mounting evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2 infection leads to multiple instances of endothelial dysfunction, including reduced nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, oxidative stress, endothelial injury, glycocalyx/barrier disruption, hyperpermeability, inflammation/leukocyte adhesion, senescence, endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT), hypercoagulability, thrombosis and many others. Thus, COVID-19 is deemed as a (micro)vascular and endothelial disease.
Not “outrageous”, Lysander. But interesting.
There are a few experts here – my (very inexpert) take is that development follows stimulation and need.
Reflecting on Knox’s “school in every village”, the stimulation can be applied. The “need” … every society has needs. If they’re pressing enough, a solution will be found.

I have given a little commentary on the floods around the joint. Allow me to add more.
Listening to the local airwaves, SES bloke sez that the peak water level hasn’t been attained yet, it will come maybe in the next 5 days. After prognostications it was here last week.
But there’s a silver lining ladies and gentlemen. This, er, delay allows the SES to super duper prepare for the upcoming waters. He did acknowledge that public anxiety was a concern in almost a throwaway comment.
So old mate who has tended his farm for 50 years, lady around the corner from the milk bar who sandbagged, the expected date has been pushed back. Don’t feel anxious guys, SES are all over it.

All done in that awful globohomo style they seem to love.
Mankind have not descended from monkeys. The monkey tribes of the earth are descendants of men. They are the products of the abuse of procreative functions by a branch of early humanity. It is even possible that the monkey ranks are often recuperated from the human family.
The monkey tribes are specimens of what the physical side of the human family might become and what some members of it will become if they deny God, shut their ears to his voice called conscience, and renounce their humanity by continuing to make wrong use of their procreative functions and powers.
Such an end for physical humanity is not in the scheme of evolution and it is not at all likely that the whole of physical humanity will sink into such abysmal depths of depravity, but no power and intelligence can interfere with man in his right to think nor deprive him of his freedom to choose what he will think and what he will do, nor to prevent him from acting in accordance with what he has thought and chosen to act.

Should have also mentioned ideology. There are a few that are (probably) more driven by ideology in the first instance and might declare they have no interest in personal gain. Okay, but that feeds into the power model and of course from power, money usually follows.
So, how is that “Struth level dumb” when all I said was do you think some peoples’ brains in one part of the world grew faster than others in other parts of the world. Where’s this assumption you speak of?
And not that I am now going to argue the contrary, but surely there was a “first” human brain at some stage.

You’re a Victorian blow in who didn’t even know that when the new fuels were brought into the communities it was known as Avgas.
That was what all Territorians called it.
I long suspected Opal was Avgas without the lead that is normally added in. They can take the lead out of Avgas anytime. My Lycoming doesn’t need it and the oil will stay cleaner.
Avgas, the hydrocarbon part is largely iso octane. Automotive unleaded has a fair bit of aromatics in it and god only knows what else.

There is an invention known as “Ear plugs”.
Also noise cancelling headsets. They work by having a small microphone inside the earcup, receiving the noise signal, making it opposite phase and feeding that into the earphone. They work a treat. Now if only we had a visual equivalent for this place for the “noise” posts.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith Fighting Back Against WEF
From Armstrong Economics –
“This is big news. Alberta’s new Premier Danielle Smith is the first government leader to apologize for vaccine mandates. Taking it a step further, she directly criticizes the World Economic Forum (WEF) and Schwab; she has “no interest in being involved with them.” During her first day in office, Smith immediately apologized for the vaccine mandates. She is offering to rehire any government worker who lost their job due to their vaccine status.
“We are not QR codes,” Smith once said, adding that she wants to “purge” Canada’s QR database. She called out Alberta Health Services (AHS) for creating problems by colluding with the WEF. “They signed some kind of partnership with the World Economic Forum right in the middle of the pandemic; we’ve gotta [sic] address that. Why in the world do we have anything to do with the World Economic Forum? That’s got to end,” Smith said. Great question, Danielle.
She plans to look into amnesty for outstanding COVID-related fines. “The system, my friends, is broken,” she said. “Most of those managing AHS today are holdovers from the NDP years. They have had their chance to fix this bloated system and they have largely failed on almost all accounts. Failure is no longer an option.”
Remember when Schwab boasted about infiltrating world governments with various Young Global Leaders, such as Trudeau? She publicly said that it is “distasteful” and “offensive” when billionaires brag about how much control they have over governments. Yes, this is a direct shot at Schwab. She is the first government leader to openly question why we have allowed the WEF to infiltrate governments and control policies. We need more leaders like Danielle Smith who are willing to acknowledge the growing power that Schwab and his minions have in shaping the global society. Better yet, we should question why they were handed power in the first place.”

Honestly.
Language like this Dover?
I mean doesn’t there need to be some standards?
I’m a truck driver at the moment and therefore I don’t expect to hear or see bad language like this.
And these same people abuse me for calling bitches bitches and other women cows.
Yet they know this word really offends the ladies.
So there is this left wing hypocrisy level there, so synonymous with our observations of how denialists who are living a lie are becoming.
Can someone actually quote what Putin has said here? All I’ve ever heard him say is nothing more than that they will only ever be used if there is an existential threat to the Russian Federation, which is pretty much consistent with what everyone else with nukes says anyway.
*Chuckle*
Will no one think of the Ladies???
Shame on you, wogboy.
Apologise to the ladies immediately, you greasy spag.
Well, yeah. Hitchener opens up with the report:
‘Wonga Park Man Killed.
Hit by car attempting to flee armed robbery.’
Not sure why this lead the 6pm bulletin but there you go.
In the 2000’s the oligarchs were very heavily supported by the Regional Governors who in turn drew heavily on ex-KGB types or Mafia for their support and power base. My understanding is that Putin’s early path to consolidating his power was through those Regional governors and his KGB network. I think that network has only strengthened but obviously since then new blood has taken over, local trusted actors and yes, family wealthy type connections. But at the very top around Putin in Moscow it is the ruthless Security apparatus backing Putin. And if Putin is to be removed, it will be these thugs that will sort out the new leadership of Russia, not a flourish of democracy.
Beat me to it Dover.

I bow to the ‘right-thinking patriot’.
His linkage to primary school newsletters and semi-literate crank sites that make the Furniture Shop look like Encyclopedia Brittanica, and the insistence that communism killed off all the apostrophes is second to none.
Funniest abusive tourist carter ever. He doesn’t know Quenthland though. I lived there once, so I know it far more than he ever could.
So, how is that “Struth level dumb” when all I said was do you think some peoples’ brains in one part of the world grew faster than others in other parts of the world. Where’s this assumption you speak of?
The assumption is that there was a baseline and brains got bigger from then on, except when they didn’t.
I generally like wogs.
Shhhh, don’t tell the old urban snob that.
I actually have a bit of wog in the ancestory.
But as an Australian, it is your duty to pull the piss out of them.
But nonetheless, there is no need for language like that infront of the ladies, Giuseppe.

Rishi Sunak – THIS Is What They’re Not Telling You
A year ago, when he was Chancellor, Rishi Sunak refused to say whether he would profit from the Moderna covid vaccine. He was a founding partner of Theleme Partners, a major investor in Moderna. And, apparently, his richer than avarice wife does not pay tax in the U.K.
It’s total bullshit. Nett overseas migration is planned to ramp up to it’s highest ever intake over coming years so wages won’t be going anywhere. And definitely GDP per capita is headed south.
This Labor Govt is heading us in the direction of a command economy, where they have an increasing say (through regulation, taxes and policies) in the pricing of certain good and services.
standards here seem to have have slipped
but Im sure that grubby childishness is the future

Hold it right there.
I am getting Khloe of Kurunda to adjudicate on this one.

There’s still hope for you as I don’t believe you have been as foul mouthed as that terrible little wog prick in Melbourne ,ever.
But tell me, do you all speak like that from there?
Is it out of frustration for not ever being able to pronounce the word “mall” correctly?
Ghastly.

Knuckle Dragger:
I was more surprised by the ebb and flow of verbal manipulation than anything else. Whilst amusing to watch, I got a couple of lessons in how some devious minds work in that place. Mainly how an offhand remark could be manipulated into a career threatening fight.
Or how a truth half told and with the context removed could be very effective in a power struggle that started for no other reason than someone having a bitchy day.
Or how a patients life could be put at risk when one doesn’t belong to the right clique, or got trained in a ‘lesser’ hospital.
Oh yes. I understand how blokes get into such strife when they assume that women are the weaker sex.
If a bloke believes that, the first cute girlie he meets will have his nuts in their handbag ‘tout de suite’, and when he wakes up several years later will find himself in a trap that will leave him financially castrated if not in gaol for crimes he never committed. As we are seeing in Canberra – I’m open minded about the whole drink the ‘bosses good scotch’ endeavour, but his chances of justice are slim to bugger all, according to popular opinion here.
H/T internet.
It bloody well is outrageous! But … “Seeking the truth is not seeking what is desirable.” Camus
I largely avoid it on most forums because Godwin’s Law is invoked almost immediately.
1.
A neuroscientist stated that the reasons hunter gatherers have exceptional eyesight is because their environment shapes their visual perception. The consequence is that while language is automatically learnt reading isn’t and learning to read alters visual perception in such a way that we lose other visual perceptive skills. There is nothing surprising about that. For me at least that is common sense. No free cognitive lunches.
2.
The full maturation of the frontal lobes is very important for future planning, creativity, problem solving, social interaction, and inhibition of impulsive behaviors. The geneticist Lewontin has argued that for that full development to kick in there needs to be the relevant stimuli to generate the appropriate gene expression.
Urbanisation, which began with agriculture, requires much greater emphasis on inhibition because humans are dealing with non-clan members and history tells us how long we’ve taken to overcome that innate bias against non-clan members. For a rather interesting study on that issue have a look at The WEIRDEST People in the WORLD. WEIRD: Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic. The book is controversial and argues that the Western tolerance for living among so many strangers without wanting to bop them on the head was a hard won cultural battle.
3.
It has been established the advent of agriculture altered our genes relevant to immunology. During devleopment immune processes play an important role in shaping cerebrum development. Long fascinating story I don’t understand because I’m too old and stupid to study that stuff now.
The point is: if immune relevant genes can be altered by contingencies, why not “above the neck”.
4. A study found northern Europeans have larger eyes and larger brains(technically the retina is part of the brain). Additionally there is this fascinating paper:
Bigger brains and bigger bodies for colder climates.
Tierra del Feugian: 1590
Peruvian women 1219
French men 1585
men from Xhosa (Mandela tribe) 1570
cf, Beals, Smith and Dodd, 1984. ‘Brain size, cranial morphology, climate and time machines’, Current Anthropology, 25:301-30
4. In 2001 a Prof of Anthropology sent me this. He stated he had been sitting on it for years and typically taught students there was no relationship because brain size and intelligence, which he admitted in that email that he knows that is not true. The r value is not strong but in many other contexts would be considered significant.
—
The problem with the nutrition argument is that it doesn’t explain the larger visual cortex. There are only so many stem cells so the larger visual cortex suggests, albeit faintly, that other regions of the brain may have missed out. For example, the frontal lobes are the last to mature.
There is a distinct bias in the research community against the issues raised above. The only reason that Prof came to my defense was because I was presenting good data but being attacked by all and sundry. He came to my defense and everyone shut up.
Sorry for the long post. There is so much here to unpack that I prefer to avoid it but you did ask … .
Elbow and his lieutenants are still trying to run the planned economy of the Trotskyists and Leninists who turned Russia into the doomed experiment of the Soviet Union a century ago.
They simply will not accept the failure of of the fascist planned economy, so they’re trying to cripple it with “renewable” energy and the impoverishment it will produce.
Enviro lunacy is an embedded Scottish characteristic. Perhaps they view it as the latest boondoggle for ripping off the Sassenach.
I’ve quit watching a number of rather good Scottish nature shows because the climate claims were incessent and idiotic.
“Due to climate change” must be a required assertion in every Scottish program.

I suspect the biggest danger is from the military. He has replaced a lot of generals, and militaries tend to be just as prone to cliques as business and the security services. If a coalition of general officers stages a putsch then the thugs and also the ex-KGB clique around Putin will get purged firmly.
The same dynamics apply in the US and Turkey. Erdogan has been purging Kamalist officers for so long that he now has total control over the military. The Democrats have been purging the US officer corps for 14 years now (Trump’s presidency might’ve slowed it, but he was ‘way too busy to reverse the process). By contrast when the Muslim Brotherhood took over Egypt they only had a year or two of exerting control over the Egyptian military – which was insufficient, since Gen. Sisi booted Morsi out and took over.
A problem for Russia right now is the higher level of the military officer class is in intense flux as Putin tries like Lincoln to find a winning general. But by stirring them up like this he risks a revolt from the guys he’s fired. There’s always a McClellan.

I am long years behind, but when my Dad was flying across Australia last (about 1983) we were very worried about 100/130 Avgas having lead enough to eat your valves and pistons. The Lycoming o-235 was made for 80 octane avgas. Running it on good clean Super was much preferred to the 100/130.
Is there a good safe fuel for 80 octane motors now?
