G’day,

I trust this finds you fit and well.


Cree Prophecy

Cree Prophecy

The sad truth is that too many people are this criminally short sighted. Those who aren’t that short sighted (that’s you and me) need to do more to revert the current catastrophic trend.

I am listening to some great lectures at present. One datum from yesterday’s listening is that a being’s troubles stem from his perceived inability to be cause. Every bad situation that comes to our attention over which we perceive that we cannot be cause reduces our morale.

Conversely, if we can do something that increases our perceived level of cause, our morale improves. Want to feel good? Take effective action to change a condition for the better!

Here are some suggestions.

1. Support those who are doing something about it. You and I might not have all the answers or the best answers or even an answer for every problem. But someone does. When you see someone doing something constructive, support them. If you have money and they need it, flow to their cause. If you have time and they need it, contribute some hours. If they are spreading a message with which you agree, forward it on your comm lines.

2. Communicate your viewpoint. You have a sane, pro-survival viewpoint. Many people don’t. The more sane people communicate sane solutions, the stronger the tidal wave of truth becomes to swamp the sea of lies. When you speak up for what is right it emboldens others to speak your truth as they perceive it as agreement. This is how reality is established. You communicate your truth, others perceive it as true and pass it on and, by agreement, it becomes reality. And we need a better reality at present!

One way you can do this is by wearing t-shirts that forward a message you wish to communicate. At present I am wearing one that has on the front,
“PSYCHIATRISTS
ARE HERE.
HIDE YOUR
CHILDREN!”

It is rare that I wear it without receiving a positive feedback.

3. Stop contributing your money (energy) to those who are doing harm. Take your purchasing dollars and buy organic or grower’s market food (fruit and veggies) rather than highly refined and processed food. If everyone did just this one thing it would revolutionise their health and a lot of society.

4. Support local, small businesses with whom you can communicate rather than large, faceless corporations whose directors are responsible only for profitability and not for sustainability.

5. If you have shares in companies, register your opinions to the directors at shareholder’s meetings.

6. Make your viewpoint known to your local politician on matters of interest to you.

If you have a problem for which you have no solution, call me. I love sharing the wisdom I have learned from others wiser than me.

Confessions Of An Rx Drug Pusher

She admits it. Gwen Olsen spent fifteen years as a sales representative for the pharmaceutical industry. In the video below, she tells it like it is. She admits that drug companies aren’t in the business of finding cures. They’re in the business of symptom management. That’s because if they found a cure for cancer, diabetes, heart disease, or mental disorders, they’d be putting themselves out of business. Their goal is to keep you buying their drugs, preferably for life. http://www.foodrenegade.com/confessions-of-rx-drug-pusher/

Vitamin D3 Helps Clear Amyloid in Alzheimer’s Disease

Vitamin D3 and curcumin stimulate macrophages to clear the beta amyloid from the brain of patients with Alzheimer’s disease according to an article published in the March issue of the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease. Low levels of vitamin D3 are associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

Researchers found that pancreatic cancer sufferers recovered in an experiment where they took 50,000 IU a day of Vitamin D3 and silver. http://tv.naturalnews.com/v.asp?v=1F7327FE078A12BF6A1DD33EC589D4E3

This is pretty close to the core of my philosophy:

Hurt Me With Truth but Never Comfort Me With a Lie



Draconian Censorship Coming Soon to Australia

From: http://www.australianclimatemadness.com/2012/03/censorship-comes-to-australia/

Late yesterday afternoon, I read something that sent chills down my spine.

Mr. Ray Finkelstein QC, a left-wing former Federal Court Judge with no media experience, at the request of the Gillard Government, issued a 400 page report which calls for a Big Brother Super-Regulator to ’regulate’ political speech and - among other things - impose new laws with the power to stop climate change realists from speaking up.

Its “recommendations” will sicken every single Australian: They actually call for a Big Brother Super-Regulator to censor not just the newspapers and TV, but websites, personal blogs, and even what you say on Twitter!

This is a proposal that would seem right at home in North Korea or Zimbabwe. I never thought – as dark as things seemed- we could stoop this low here in Australia.

It is clear from the report, in particular paragraphs 4.31-4.42, that silencing climate realists is a major reason for these regulations: it is unashamedly explicit in this (and even uses the dirty trick of using polls from – wait for it – 1966 as evidence the media is pro-climate skeptic, and that – wait for it - only the ABC is unbiased!)

The size and scope of the proposed Super-Regulator is breathtaking. They will have the power to impose a “code of ethics”, force you to print views you don’t agree with as part of a ’right of reply’, take you to court, and even make you take pieces down! Even personal blogs that get only 40 hits a day will be covered! To make matters worse, the Super Regulator "would not have to give reasons for its decisions" and the decisions “would not be subject to appeal.” Even climate change websites in other countries like Watt’s Up With That will be covered by this!

We need to speak out now – while we are still allowed.

This is why I just created www.FreeSpeechAustralia.com so we can work together to help stop this nightmare from becoming a reality.

It includes an online petition, which I STRONGLY urge you all to sign and to pass onto all your family and friends, as well as an “Action Centre” detailing what other activities you can take, a resource toolkit, and links to a Facebook page and Twitter account.

It certainly looks like we should be very concerned by this move. Commenter Baldrick kindly pointed me to some key sections of the report, namely this on bias:

4.25 To deal with the difficulties of identifying and measuring bias the polls reported here attempted to measure bias as diversions from fairness and diversity of opinion, on a scale presenting bias as a polar opposite to ‘balance’. On this basis:

  • bias is much more commonly perceived to exist in the conduct of newspapers than in television or radio
  • the ABC is perceived to be the least biased media organisation in Australia, and
  • there is perception of persistent bias against the Labor Party particularly in pollsconducted in the earlier years of the period covered by this analysis.


Help Save The Rhino

The rhino is being hunted to the brink of extinction—driven by growing horn demand in Asia. But EU pressure on China and Vietnam can force international action to save the rhinos. I just signed an Avaaz.org petition to ensure the EU acts! http://www.avaaz.org/en/save_rhinos/?sbc



Where is your Heart?



No Excuse For Quitting



H. L. Mencken Quote

“The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is a romantic, he tries to change it. And even if he is not a romantic personally he is very apt to spread discontent among those who are.”
Smart Set Magazine December 1919
