There are some aspects of design common to a wide variety of machines, so making for a good first guess when diagnosing an unfamiliar type.
Basically I lend my vacuous support to 123AndBush’s advice. If the controller had been programmed in stereotypical fashion to “fail-safe” when any important sensor input is not available/reliable, the absence of any of those sensor inputs would cause the shutdown. So it may pay to follow all signal cables back from the controller to see which sensors they end in, and check all those sensors.
The rotor tachometer is the obvious one since the rotor speed did not show on the display, but you could be unlucky and have two sensor failures, either one of which may trigger shutdown. Whether that is likely depends on whether there is an indicator/display of every sensor’s outputs. If there is a display for every sensor and the rotor speed was the only one erroneous, well that tacho is likely the single cause.
He sure did.

Ignore what Hallward Hughes ( Lake Eyrie) said. The fusion experiment was very important as it showed that even at a tiny fraction, there was more energy produced than what was consumed -through fusion. Also, Denninger his (Hallward’s god), is an unethical fucking moron who most of the American Right abandoned a couple of decades ago for general dishonesty. Trust the enlightened Queersland Limey to pick him up.

Seems the Battletech story was more ambitious than the Fallout 4 universe:
Flying cars have sort-of arrived, but not at the same level of performance as the Jetsons which was set in the year 2062. There’s still time for the Jetsons flying cars to happen.
There’s still time for fusion power to happen a la Fallout timeline.
Battletech peaked too soon.
Lucky CA didn’t start the Brisbane Test on a Wednesday like they did in Perf. Might not have made the weekend.
Well, given that the setting describes some 300 years of technical regression on a galaxy-wide scale between the collapse of the Star League in 2780 and 3028 when the Helm Memory Core was recovered, I figure that meteoric development only puts the subsequent stagnation into a sort of techno-feudalism into a more tragic light.
Then a pack of assholes (as Tex of the Black Pants Legion describes them) party-crashed the place in 3049 and ran amuck for 3 years. Until a telecom company with delusions of totalitarian splendour slapped them back into timeout corner.
And technical development was back on again. 🙂

As for PVO, wow I actually agree with him. If there is any moves, at explorations it will mean reversion to compliance drilling (think in real basic terms 1 drill rig & crew for 6 weeks a year) to hold the lease. Unintended conseq: State gov start messing with rules to hold on to leases and more companies do what Glencore has. Think now the shock has worn off, like what happened with carbon tax the devil is in the detail and everyone is waiting to see what the regulations look like.
“Trump not taking anything seriously.
Does not deserve to run again.”
It is possible – but I don’t know how likely – that this is deliberate.
Hype the media up on how “bad” Trump is vs DeSantis being “reasonable”.
Either Trump sabotages his own campaign, or pulls out, leaving DeSantis to run, and the media caught having already said he’s “not that bad” and unable to fully trash him, and then Trump endorsing DeSantis late in the game.
Maybe.
From what I have heard from little known “insider” interviews of Trump admin people, Trump was always ready to take the brunt and keep those doing the real work “covered” as it were – he took the heat while they were ignored. So not entirely unprecedented, and not entirely un-Trump.
Strategy vs tactics, you might say.
But who knows?
As with all politics, it’s wheels within wheels, and you never really know until the dust settles.

Listen to Glenn Greenwald’s Rumble Ep3 today – all about how the politicians and media stop at nothing to ascribe political motives for heinous acts, even when the evidence is not yet collected. Lots of good examples.
This trio carried out evil acts, but solar panels and water tanks and living off grid would apply to lots of people in rural Australia. In fact, isn’t this what the government encourages the public to do?”

As to “Why 4 police” – might want to take “local knowledge” into account there
Thanks for the interest Colonel.
I’ve spent all morning checking sensors and power feeds.
There’re voltage checks in the diagnostics screen but you’d need more knowledge than I have to know if they’re charting correctly or what needs to be running to register the small volts that are read.
As Bush suggested, it’s possible the wrong harness was ordered and it’s pinned incorrectly for this model.
We’re checking the codes at home on the net and heading back in for another dig around. The space to get to the rotor box sensor is very narrow, my brother won’t fit but I will. The motor has to cool down because you climb in past the turbo.
Re: latest TwitterFiles,
Does anyone know which firm or county Orange Man was talking about in this allegation? https://twitter.com/mtaibbi/status/1603857712638529536
The actual tweet is https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/1315981668784709632
Perhaps if he’d only alleged harvesting it might have passed without comment, but it’s the “count” part that raised hackles. Did employees from that firm get deputised into election “officials” or was he just talking rubbish? No action was taken in this case, but without supporting evidence one could argue action should have been taken – at least to supplement the tweet with a link to true information.

Green policies having the desired effect in Pomgolia.
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/dec/16/more-than-1m-people-in-poverty-with-heart-and-breathing-problems-at-risk-from-cold
More than a million people living with heart and breathing problems could be at greater risk of hospitalisation or death owing to poverty* leaving them more likely to be exposed to the cold, figures suggest.
The data published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) estimated that there are 1.3 million people with cardiovascular and respiratory conditions living in poverty, and that they are more likely to be older people, prompting calls for extra help to deal with the cold weather.
* Our green policies which have ramped up energy costs-EXACTLY AS INTENDED.
The latest laser ignition experiment may have produced a little more energy than the laser hit the target with but IIRC it isn’t the first time more energy out than in was done. I think this was done by the Brits with a Tokamak like device some years ago.
We know fusion works because we can produce neutrons at will with various methods. You can buy a commercial neutron generator based on the Farnsworth Fusor. Teenage kids have made them work in the back shed but they cannot produce more energy than you put in.
Doc Bussard’s idea was to make a non solid cathode consisting of a cloud of electrons so you could get enough successive passages of the ions through the non solid cathode to get enough fusions to obtain surplus energy.

Twitter’s suspension of journalists sets ‘dangerous precedent’, UN warns
Pressure grows on Elon Musk as EU says social media platform could face sanctions over suspensions
Peculiar, nothing like this over all the “right” suspensions/banning’s etc for a decade or more.
Dujarric said media voices should not be silenced on a platform that professed to be a haven for freedom of speech. “The move sets a dangerous precedent at a time when journalists all over the world are facing censorship, physical threats and even worse,” he told reporters.
Germany’s government said press freedom must not be switched “on and off on a whim” and Downing Street also raised concernsover the suspensions.
The warning from the EU came from V?ra Jourová, the European Commission vice-president for values and transparency, who tweeted that “news about arbitrary suspension of journalists on Twitter is worrying” and said the economic bloc’s Digital Services Act (DSA) required platforms to respect media freedom. Its provisions include a requirement that when users and content are penalised it must be in a “diligent and proportionate manner, with due regard to fundamental rights”.
“This is reinforced under our Media Freedom Act. Elon Musk should be aware of that. There are red lines. And sanctions, soon,” she said.
The dishonest catamites at the gruinaid mention the bans as being triggered by the real time tracking of Musks jet.
What little detail do you think they left out??

I can’t recall seeing a Guinea coin, I think the largest denomination pre-decimal coin minted in Australia was the Crown which was worth 5 Shillings. They were very rare though and were only minted in the late 1930’s.
I wonder if our perceptions of value impact inflation. The Penny coin was a largish coin, certainly much larger and heavier than the 1 cent coin which replaced it, so it engendered a sense of value. Having a pocketful of Pennies jangling as you went about your business made a young boy feel like a millionaire.

…. in reality the shop assistant has absolutely no idea what I’m trying to achieve, becomes confused, then wary, .. finally she will angrily push the coins back across to me, take a moment to clear her mind so she can “concentrate on the transaction”, and will give change of $4.65 in coins, adding to the low-value weight in my pocket.

I actually encourage resistance to ‘tyranny’. Fiercely anti-mandate. Could not see my own father buried only last year, albeit I didn’t threaten to mow down border checkpoints in someone else’s Kenwurf.
Went to all the D-Town protest marches. Took the hit so I see my sainted mother. Aaand so on. This has all been dealt with.
The reality is you take hysterical, portly offence to people who disagree with you on other issues, and you remain massively butt-hurt because:
a) You do not have the millions-strong following you feel you deserve;
b) You are demonstrably proven wrong on some of your most ardent flag-wavery;
c) You resort to emotional abuse when this happens (‘fuck them’, ‘get a clot and die’, ‘shallow cock-smokers); and
d) You then accuse other people of being emotional. It’s Grade 2 Alinsky stuff.
On top of this, you absolutely cannot abide being made fun of, and that’s very much the best bit.

JC at one time early 2000’s I had to get a chest X-ray in Russia for visa purposes. It was at a regional city , not Moscow or St Pete’s. I went to the “clinic” to get it and was confronted by this huge pipe and valve mostrosity , with the operator dressed up like Dr Frankenstein in Shelley’s novel. The machine reminded me of that Frankenstein invention too. Big goggles behind a face shield , heavy lead apron chest to toes. I told my HR boss, no fkn way. This thing looked like it could burn holes in concrete. Big kerfuffle ensued and I told her I was walking, so they flew me to London at a Russian Embassy approved clinic to get the x-ray.

Fuck knows what they were doing, but writing Traffic Tickets and driving round in Police Cars wasn’t part of their day.
Nope, that was not allowed in NSW. Nobody was allowed to count the clock down by taking any sort of leave, including those already on leave. If after 6 weeks after your show cause date you hadn’t had at least 1 shot or produced an exemption the DoEs doctors would accept (my ex office mate was allergic to an ingredient in all the shots and the bastards would not accept his exemption, so he organised to have his shot done in the ER , and within minutes was getting the adrenaline to stop the anaphylaxis, had the equivalent of 2 epipens and was kept in for 2 nights – all documented with photos and he was exempted from the 2nd shot), you were sacked.

But don’t expect Canberra to take a relaxed position, based on years of online contact, to determine who is, or isn’t the next Train leaving the station. Particularly when careers are on the line:
The Government and Opposition are in lockstep on suppressing Rightwing extremism. And Home affairs minister Clare O’Neil foreshadows great things:
I’m all for lunatics like the Trains being strained out before they do harm.
But it remains to be seen whether climate change heresy, or opposition to patently stupid renewable energy policies, or questioning The Voice or the Great Brinny Payout are viewed as symptomatic of membership Rightwing Terror World and in need of a bit of ‘democratic strengthening’.
Personally, I expect the temptation to use the fallout from Wieambilla tragedy to split the Coalition and clip Dutton’s wings will be too strong for Team Abronese – and ‘pandering to the Far Right do you really want blood on your hands‘ will become political garlic against any opposition to ALP/Green policy.
How that applies to speech in the public square remains to be seen.

A person’s “future is destroyed” when they die. Up until that moment, they have a future.
Claiming that losing a job/career/vocation/sunshine lollipops rainbows is losing your “future” is pure hyperbole. Using that to then justify cold blooded murder is something else again.
I get the anger here. I have the sh*ts too. But there are always alternatives. These people claimed to be Christians. Christians serve their neighbours, they don’t shoot them.

There is need for government intervention’: PM says free market failed on energy
David Crowe
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has backed the case for federal intervention in open markets after a bruising debate with energy exporters on his new regime to cap coal and gas prices, intensifying a debate about state power and his willingness to impose tough laws on business.
Albanese said the energy row would not prevent him working with business leaders to get agreement on other fronts, but he insisted he was right to impose heavy intervention when the free market failed.
How the fuck would Luigi the inconceivable blame the “free market” when it hasnt been tried?

All the chatter about cops reminded me to continue about the cop who had it in for me. I borrowed my Bil’s motorbike. Come over the brow of a hill into a sweeping bend speeding. I continue on about 3km when this cop pulls me up for speeding. Blow me down its the same cop. How fast was I going? You were going pretty quick over the brow of the hill. So I knew where he was. On the street above the sweeping bend. He gave me a ticket for exceeding the speed limit. See you in court, I said. He’s pissed off coz I go to court to dispute it. He has his say, I asked how can you tell how fast someone is going coming towards you. Not guilty. More to come.
taken at face value then nobody would commit suicide because there is always something to live for. unfortunately the human psyche is not so easily pigeon holed. but clearly people commit suicide all the time because they rightfully or wrongly think they have no future to live for.
further clarifying the context of what happened is not “justifying it”. we can talk about the causes without “justifying” the outcome.
the shooters stuck around knowing full well that retribution was coming, so basically they committed suicide by cop. its hard to argue that they felt they had some sort of future to live for by looking at the actual facts, rather than what we wish they had reasoned instead. They could have made a run for it, but they chose to make a final stand.
blogs like this are now at risk because this becomes just another excuse in the left’s war on free speech. free speech comes at a price.

Mate of mine (who I called this morning) is from Wycheproof and comes up here contracting each year.

maybe just leave them the fuck alone, its not like they were out in the kingswood doing laps of the main in search of jesuit spooks.
still need some explanation of what more than one “safety check” was about.
Absolutely a given. I fully expect that the Dovers of the Australian online world will have more to worry about in the New Year than the use of the c-bomb: duty of care, takedown notices, personal identification of posters, disclosure to authorities – and soviet on…
My point was more about the Government using the incident to rip the seams in the Liberals/LNP/National Coalition to isolate the Right from the nodding Left- and make Opposition a political minefield. In the current world of wonders, even with Team Dutton supine, the potential harm is beyond significant…
Me and me mate are gionf fishing for the weekend, stop at the pub for a belly full. Mates driving, gets pulled up, right on the limit but not over. The same cop who has been transferred 160km away. He asks me if I’m ok to drive, me knowing full well I’m over and he will put the bag on me. He drives mates car with us in it to local cop shop. We go into the cop shop and here’s the local sergeant sitting down. He looks around seeing us and sez, hello Bob to me mate, going fishing? They’re old mates. The useless cop starts carrying on about how he’s right on the limit. The sergeant says to him, drop them off at their fishing lodge there’s a good lad. Is he pissed off again? More to come.
Zippy, you say they had “no future” after they shot the police. Agreed that suicide by cop was obvious, particularly after seeing their video.
The original claim was that they had “no future” because of job loss. That was what I was disputing, probably clumsily. And I agree with your risk assessment of blogging.
Agreed and very likely permanent.
Market Failure: subsidised renewables – apparently the lowest cost on the dispatch pile – selling electricity at monster marginal prices created by their displacing low-cost dispatchable coal.
Government Failure: waving the rentiers through and applying a regulated return to your security supplier.
Dutton is way ahead of Albanese, he’s said nothing to antagonise liberals, and he’s handled the National Party internal politics at arm’s length.
Sure, they’ll bring back Barnaby Joyce, who will seek to white ant Dutton, but there’s a cost for the Nationals in doing that.
Antipathy to Joyce was the Teals major selling point, Dutton clearly has good relations with them and Joyce is poison to women voters.

Same cop get put in a station about 60km up stream. He upsets all the locals. One of the places we fish the farmer is up and down the road on a unlicensed 3 wheeler all the the time. The cop has taken to driving his own WRX so people can’t see its the cops. He sees the farmer on the road and chases him. Farmer turns off across a little bridge on his property that crosses an irrigation ditch. Cop turns to drive over the bridge only to discover the farmer has removed the deck timbers to stop us driving across his land even though its a surveyed track on the map. The timbers are only wide enough for his 3 wheeler. Cop drives car into irrigation ditch which is about 1.5m below ground level. Find out later insurance won’t pay out coz he was using it for work in pursuit. This guy cannot take a trick.

Brain bleach please, I accidentally read a Ned Case comment:

QPlod may not have had the publicity NSWallopers or Vikstapo got, but they were itching to replicate them.
In my collection of lockdown videos is at least one, possibly more, clip of police with QPlod logo on their shoulder, body slamming a middle class housewife to the footpath, for walking the dog around the block.
The lead up to the body slam is a textbook example of a middle class normie who has never even seen a kinetic situation in her life, not able to process any form of logic into grasping that a lifetime of harmless innocent conduct was yesterday criminalised & will be treated alla same as armed robbery, assuming cops will behave to her as they always have and not understanding when, vs cops who have just been given an upgraded “medical emergency” & believe there is nothing at all wrong with nightsticking a normie housewife as a matter of routine.
I know, TE. It was glorious to witness and be a part of. Please forgive the spontaneous outbreak of nostalgia.
The problem being with the latter two subjects, is I am not sure that Grigory knows enough of either of the latter two subjects to even try to produce a plausible attempt at wrongology.

You’re right. My own personal experience has been a fucking picnic.
An unexpected and maybe most severe aspect has been becoming persona non gratia overnight.
Because most Australians are fucking sheep, getting fired over something like a vax mandate is unthinkable. They want nothing to do with you.
I was the only one out of a whole department to get fired, senior management effectively named me in the companies internal social media as “the disappointing and sole exception” to full compliance”.

Nuffies like you cannot stand the idea that free will exists, and that people can and will use it to commit the most nefarious acts for the most apparently (to you) banal reasons.
Those perfidious…CENTRAL BANKERS! didn’t put them up to it, Bird. Nor the Trains.
They chose to do that all by themselves.
Now go away and resume your plotting of grandiose schemes of mass land renewal using goat biomass or something…
Albanese may well think the “bruising debate with energy exporters” is done and dusted, legislation passed, Press managed, get on with your new life you Tory fuckers.
Santos’ Kevin Gallagher is an easy domestic target. On the other hand, Shell, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil, and Chevron all operate in shitty locations around the world with a common business model that includes: ‘we do not ever set a precedent of being seen getting bent over by Turd World governments‘.
He’d better be hoping that his best, brightest and most thoughtful bureaucrats and lawyers fully understand the operational issues and have the implementation regulations stitched up like a fish’s bum.
As a Tiktok Influencer lay observer, its looking doubtful.
QPlod may well have been heading down the same track as NSW Plod (Vikstasi were in a class of their own).
Likely there was quite a bit of blowback to the Qld state govt after the series of undercover setups of lone bush pubs, hitting them with a busload of undercover cops, then fining a Ma & Pa sized one-kegger pub $10,000 or so for having “too many people on the premises” (all undercover cops who arrived on the one bus)
Someone, either in the Commish’s office, or even the state govt, was bright enough to grasp that the optics on this were going to be really bad.
QPlod likely had the handbrake put on them after that.
Bird, spack off with the “It’S AlL An AcT GuYs!” gag.
It was retarded when you tried to pass off a fertiliser dump fire and detonation in Beirut as a nuclear explosion because it made a mushroom cloud, and it’s even more retarded now.
Every person who has faced the Western arsenal in the last 30 years, unfettered by the restraint of public perception (including Vlad Bae’s minions right now) might beg to differ, Graeme…
Bird, fine minds think alike. Israel was to first culprit I thought of, just before Luxembourg. I thought let’s think opposite – like George Costanza -like- and I thought which country is the least likely to have prompted the Trains to take out the cops? I immediately came up with Israel and Luxembourg. I chose Israel.
You’ll have to be more specific. There’s a few candidates.
And while we are at it Bird, pick your analogies better.
The Rapier you are trying to refer to is traditionally a civilian duelling sidearm, not a main combat weapon.
This is a problem for you, as rapiers were used as primary hand-to-hand combat weapons and eventually overtaken by sabres.
Try to imagine like-for-like weapon systems on a battlefield, Bird. And remember that a Samurai vs. an equivalent European gentleman or warrior would have taken at least 1 or more pistol balls to the face before he got in katana range.
Also, katanas are for weebs.
Wrong.
You are not magically compelled to do some thing Because Cause [X] Demands It!
You still choose your actions and response. Free Will again escapes your limited cognition.
It is unfortunate that you are too stupid to look at anything beyond a simple dichotomy of Black vs. White…
Okay but in all three cases the state of Israel or the deep state have a clear motive. But never the protagonists in the story.
Hello Graeme.
Good luck trying. People have been trying to do so for centuries.

“My point was more about the Government using the incident to rip the seams in the Liberals/LNP/National Coalition to isolate the Right from the nodding Left- and make Opposition a political minefield. In the current world of wonders, even with Team Dutton supine, the potential harm is beyond significant…”
Yep. And the Liberals and Nationals, always desperately willing to appease and dance to the left’s music, capitulate and happily go along with it.
However, all of this has been fashioned over the last few years. It should be remembered that only a month ago, that creep Daniel Andrews, during an election campaign, said that the Liberals were cosying up to “Nazis”. Last year, during the protest outside the CFMEU, Bill Shorten appeared on television and said that those protesting were “Nazis”. It was beyond absurd. Once upon a time, such ludicrous pronouncements from political leaders would have been rightly ridiculed, scorned and censured. But nobody blinked and nobody thought, hang on a minute, that’s an inappropriate thing to say, and of course, our tainted, compromised and corrupt MSM just love such descriptions because it enables them to silence those of us who refuse to conform to the progressive narrative. In the case of Andrews’ recent smear, the Liberals, as always, were just left floundering and flapping in the wind, something they happen to excel at.
A few years ago, just prior to Covid, I went to a wedding. I was talking to someone I hadn’t seen in a while and we got talking about politics, I can’t remember the context as to how it came up but I mentioned that I read The Spectator. She said “oh, you read a “far-right magazine”. I stopped talking to her.
This morning a friend rang me to say that she’d just returned from a walk with someone we both know. She said that they were talking about Albanese and energy and so on and she tried to speak up and he said to her “you watch far-right Sky after Dark and you read the “far-right’ Australian”. Unsurprisingly, she’s furious.
Oh and I don’t need to remind people of how, a few days after CPAC, Peter Dutton appeared on Kenny on Sky and said that the CPAC attendees, one of whom was me, were “extreme right”. Thanks Pete.
Forget about going after loons and the conspiracy theorists, they’re going to come after us, they’ve demonised us, they’re trying to silence us and they’ll next try to criminalise us,
and the Liberals and Nationals, instead of speaking up for ordinary Australians and their right to free speech, are participating in this great silencing.
The stage has been set, the script has been written, and now we wait.
FBI releases statement on ‘Twitter Files’
“…ll the lasers plus the equipment, containment* and etc. Heat transfer almost certainly would have to be to a layer of liquid lithium, like the tokamak/stellarator type of fusion, and liquid lithium metal is not the easiest thing to handle. Leaks of liquid sodium metal caused the Japanese breeder reactor project to fail.”
If it’s inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) fusion, then it’s very different to tokamaks et al.
For “traditional” (ie tokakak) fusion, you heat H (or a “heavy” isotope) to 100 million C or so, and you get heat out of the fusion, along with helium and neutrons. Or, as you say, heat and compress it with lasers.
IEC is an LENR – you create a cloud of electrons in the centre, and fire ions of fuel in a “near miss” course around it, with other ions going in the other direction. The ions are accelerated by the electric field differences, and smash into each other hard enough to fuse. If you use boron-11 (very common iostope of boron) and a proton (H ion), the impact energy not only fuses that into C12, it leaves the nucleus unstable (excess energy), and it fissions into He ions. You can use those ions to directly create HV DC at the edges of the “well” (electric potential well created by the electron cloud).
The end result is that you use common, non-toxic, non-radioactive fuel, produce no free neutrons or other radiation, and end up with helium as waste. Nor do you need high temps – this can be done at room temp. Good thing, because you need superconductor magnets (ie, liquid air temps required) to keep the electrons contained and thereby create the “well” that accelerates the fuel ions.
Bussard (yes, that one!) proposed it long ago, and his company “Energy Matter Conversion Company”, or EMCC (a clever reference to relativities E=MC^2) have done the research on US Navy grants, and believe they have the science pegged – as the scale increases, the output rises exponentially for a linear increase in input power required. They checked this scaling in several less-than-unity prototypes, and it apparently matches theory, but they never got the required funds to build one big enough to be net positive – sad really, as they only needed $200 mill to try.
There would still be engineering challenges to overcome, such as ways to capture the He waste and prevent it “poisoning” the reaction chamber, suitably long lasting electron guns and ion guns, but it is an engineering problem not a science limit, so would be do-able given the potential rewards of being able to commercialise such tech – a 200MW net positive reactor would be about the size of a 2 x 2 “cube” of shipping containers, and waste heat would be under 30MW or so, so very manageable (similar thermal plants like coal would have waste heat of 200+MW for 200MW output).
If someone has gotten IEC or some other LENR fusion tech into net positive, and this is confirmed, a lot of people will be spending a lot of dollars to do the required engineering and be the first to commmercialise it.
You are also unable to differentiate between political and military strategy.
If your political leadership is unable or unwilling to push an issue (remember that after Bush and Obama admin inertia vs sudden Trump positive action vs Biden capitulation), then all the work at tactical and military strategic level fails.
Again, you cannot cogitate anything beyond simple dichotomy.
Return to your grand plans to build canals across the Moon. You’ll enjoy it better…

“Brittany Higgins celebrates university graduation ceremony
Brittany Higgins has stepped out in public to celebrate a huge personal milestone.
Brittany Higgins has settled a compensation claim with the Commonwealth. The terms of the settlement are to remain confidential at the request of Ms Higgins, according to Personal Injury lawyer Noor Blumer. The lawsuit was launched in the wake of the abandoned rape trial against former Liberal staffer Bruce Lehrmann.
Brittany Higgins has stepped out for her university graduation ceremony, saying she “couldn’t be more proud” of the occasion.
After the intense public scrutiny during the Bruce Lehrmann rape trial – and the decision by prosecutors to drop the charge against him – Miss Higgins posted video footage from inside a Brisbane mental health clinic as she shared the emotional toll of the saga.
Now, just days after reaching a confidential settlement with the Commonwealth over her Comcare personal injury claim for sexual harassment, sex discrimination, disability discrimination, negligence and victimisation, Miss Higgins stepped out in public with hundreds of fellow students from Griffith University for a graduation ceremony on the Gold Coast.
The former Federal government staffer took to Instagram to thank her supporters for their help as she graduated with a double degree.
“It has been a journey, but we’re finally here,” she wrote.
“My university experience has been an unconventional one but I couldn’t be more proud to share this day with the people who helped me get here.
“Thank you to everyone who lent me their time and expertise over the years – from lecturers to professional mentors.”
The post was accompanied by pictures of Miss Higgins clutching a giant teddy bear and posing with friends and family outside the ceremony at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Her partner David Sharaz also posted pictures on Instagram to mark the occasion, saying he was “in awe” of what she had been able to achieve during a time of such turmoil.
“Here’s to this absolute queen for graduating with her double degree today,” he wrote. “Somehow she managed to start and complete four assignments during a criminal trial, snapping up distinctions along the way. I’m in awe, endlessly. Love you.”
On Tuesday, Miss Higgins settled her claim against the Commonwealth, receiving a confidential payment after initially seeking about $3 million in damages.
Lehrmann has consistently denied raping Miss Higgins in a parliamentary office in 2019.
The extraordinary trial was abandoned after juror misconduct and prosecutors eventually decided not to proceed with a retrial after fears the intense publicity would risk her wellbeing.
Amazing how a big payout of dosh, courtesy of the taxpayer, has miraculously revived Brittaneeeeee’s mental equilibrium. She can’t even remain quiet about it. As for “Somehow she managed to start and complete four assignments during a criminal trial“….oh really, so that’s what she was doing during those days she couldn’t attend court? Completing assignments!
I’m lost for words, if you’re well enough to do an assignment, you’re well enough to attend court. What a disgrace. A conga line of lies, deceit and political malfeasance.
Hang on, according to other ABCcess articles coal is a stranded asset with no future…
Coal consumption expected to hit a global all-time high according to IEA report
Ok, using a concept called “maths” this report shows the “fight” against gerbil worming has already been lost.
There is ZERO% chance at all of any mythical target being met.
Its just mathematically impossible, anyone claiming otherwise is a ant-science denier.
The IEA’s annual report on coal forecasts global coal use is set to rise by 1.2 per cent this year, exceeding 8 billion tonnes in a single year for the first time.
The previous record was set in 2013 of 7.99 billion tonnes.
It also predicts coal consumption will remain flat at that level until 2025 as falls in mature markets are offset by continued strong demand in emerging Asian economies.
This means coal will continue to be the global energy system’s largest single source of carbon dioxide emissions by far.
…
The largest increase in coal demand is expected to be in India at 7 per cent, followed by the European Union at 6 per cent and China at 0.4 per cent.
“The world is close to a peak in fossil fuel use, with coal set to be the first to decline, but we are not there yet,” Keisuke Sadamori, the IEA’s director of energy markets and security, said.
Global coal-fired power generation is set to rise to a new record of around 10.3 terawatt hours this year, while coal production is forecast to rise by 5.4 per cent to around 8.3 billion tonnes, also an all-time high.
Production is expected to reach a peak next year but by 2025 should fall below 2022 levels.
The three largest coal producers — China, India and Indonesia — will all hit production records this year but despite high prices and comfortable margins for coal producers, there is no sign of surging investment in export-driven coal projects.
This reflects caution among investors and mining companies about the medium- and longer-term prospects for coal, the report said.
All those solar farms/big batteries/ ecocrusifixes are the stranded assets, as they eat into the very surplus wealth Australia has to subsidie them.

Kneel – I’m reasonably up on IEC and aneutronic fusion (plus a few neutronic versions too, that should be being pursued). I’ve particularly talked about aneutronic several times on the various Cats.
Interestingly IEC was a topic of much discussion in the earliest times on the net, on Compuserve forums. We had a guy who was working on it. Many fine conversations, he may even have been working for Bussard, although since we all stayed just as anonymous as we do these days I don’t know his name.
On the lithium thing, that is solely for large scale heat generating systems, like the laser implosion method we’re talking about or the tokamak/stellarator approach. There’s a lot of heat to remove, and a lot of tritium to produce, which liquid lithium does both of.
Of course none of this would matter if the pollies would only embrace fission power plants. We could have uranium and thorium plants very quickly if they pulled their fingers out. And there’s enough of both metals around to run human civilization for tens of milennia.

That would be a 30 to 40 year project to produce reactors at scale?
Nope again. She was not sacked, so she resigned, but did not need to.
In Queensland you were stood down on full pay until the start of term 2 , then unpaid. At the start of term 3, it was “come back all is forgiven”, and they were “fined” 4 weeks pay.
I notice how Bird used slip in with some insight into a subject then go full Bird. Now full Bird off the mark. Must have been spending too much time shopping for furniture with the Road Rager. I’m suprised he’s not alcoholic as well.
If we still had the report button, we could alert Dover to the reappearance of Bird.
The whole Higgins episode certainly gives an insight to the grotesque shit show that the whole canbra abomination is. I’d be fascinated to know how Higgins got the ‘job’ in the first place. Boy oh boy the lieborals deserved to be kicked out but we don’t deserve anal. Anal proves it’s possible to be even worse than the scummo debacle. Again bad luck for us. The political class and their pubic serpent controllers are actively hostile to the demos, they are our enemies. The damage canbra has done to Australia- water, electricity, welfare/cheap labour immigration has been enormous.
Okay, I don’t want to be dim, so is it a false flag?
I’ve met a few rabbis I wouldn’t mind having in my bedroom.
Like CEO Larry from Blackrock? Larry is an arsehole, but what’s he to do with the Qld melee? How about Jamie Dimon from JPMorgan? He’s Jewish too Bird.
So in the story did they have them torching a police car? Motive?
No motive given, but that was the reason neighbour Alan Dale drove over to the Train house with another person in Tuesday’s paper.
On Wednesday it was the sound of bullets that caused Dale to venture out,
then on Friday it was the burning car and the sound of bullets.
Neighbour was uninjured, but no mention of him since Tuesday.
As I said yesterday re. Brittaneeeeeee da Knickerless, job done, payment received and all suppressed, ironic given how much Sleazy and the Teals parroted on about the desperate need for “transparency”. I eagerly await Allegra, Monique, Kylea, Zoe, Kate, Zali and Sophie immediately referring this scandalous payment to the new federal ICAC. I suspect I’ll be waiting a long time.
Please Cassie its not that sort of blog.
If Graeme Bird isn’t in Cooker Pedia, we can’t take it seriously.

Allow me to be of assistance, miltie.
Bruce Lehrmann said to Renee suchandsuch from Reynolds office:
Hire Brittany Higgins for me, she’s extremely good looking
Renee contacted Higgins, they both went out on the piss all afternoon, and that’s how she got the job.
Sworn Evidence at the Trial, in case you were wondering?
Save Brittany seems to have worked. Well done Katy Gallagher and the Department of Finance.
Bush
Got a local independent mechanic in for a look. There’s no voltage coming to one sensor and he’s narrowing it down to one of the CPU’s in the cab.
He’s pretty sure that’s the cause of all the issues. Fifteen grand because of a two bit chip.
BLOODY COMPUTERS!!
How about Jamie Dimon from JPMorgan? He’s Jewish too Bird.
Jamie Dimon is of Greek heritage.
Try a flare.
Righto, Bird…
Ukelele Lady:
First, congrats on another excellent handle.
Now, Bruce Lehrmann and Brittany Higgins.
Anything you can add to what’s been written?
I mean, I’ve got nothin’ but perhaps you have insight?
