TIME IS RUNNING OUT!
Submissions close Thursday 23rd January

The Australian Productivity Commission, which is responsible for government spending, is conducting an inquiry into mental health and has released a Draft Report for community feedback. Its recommendations seem innocuous—expanding “health screening” for 0-3 year olds and pre-schoolers to include checking their “emotional development.” Of course, we all want to see our children healthy.

However as one expert stressed when advising Australia’s federal government, other language for “emotional and social well-being” should be found “rather than resorting to use of “mental illness/mental health terminology,” which is a whole different ball game. This spells a serious risk to a percentage of 1.25 million Australian children aged 0-3, because such screening could potentially lead to referrals that may result in a psychotropic drug being recommended.
Doesn’t Australia already have too many toddlers and youths on drugs that could cause damaging effects to their developing bodies and ruin their future? Consider: Babies still in a crib are given mind-altering drugs. Here are some facts:

Psychiatric drug side effects in infants and toddlers reported in Australia include:

A 1-year-old boy on the antipsychotic chlorpromazine suffered involuntary upward deviation of his eyes.
A 2-year-old girl on the antipsychotic droperidol suffered severe hyperextension of the neck.
A 3-year-old girl on Ritalin had involuntary muscle movements described as lip-smack tongue protrusions.iv

Screening questions are so subjective that any child is put at risk of being labelled mentally disordered, with a percentage recommended for psychiatric drugs. For example, symptoms for mental disorders in 0 - 3 year olds include: difficulty sleeping, tantrums, losing track of a favourite stuffed animal and hyperactivity.ii

The Commission’s Draft Report references the subjective mental illness diagnostic manual for those aged 0-5 (DC:0-5, the Diagnostic Classification of Mental Health and Developmental Disorders of Infancy and Early Childhood). It includes “Overactivity Disorder of Toddlerhood” and “Separation Anxiety Disorder.” iii

What “mental/emotional health” screening doesn’t tell parents is that while medical diseases can be tested and physically confirmed, there are no medical tests to confirm any psychiatric or behavioural diagnosis.

Cataclysmic, nay criminal, stupidity from lawmakers will result in monumentally tragic outcome for the people and the land. The really sad thing is that the criminally irresponsible who wreak the havoc will not be able to make restitution.

Whata great acknowledgement of her caring and compassion. So pleased they had somewhere to go.

I recently saw a news clip about Canadians wanting to euthanize dementia patients without their consent. Last time I checked that was called murder.

A “Persona” is a fictional representation of an actual user and is applied in the early stages of product development or product redesign. Personas are vital to the success of a product because they drive design decisions by taking common user needs and bringing them to the forefront of planning before design has actually started. Personas provide the team with a shared understanding of users in terms of goals and capabilities. Once Personas are defined, going through a task analysis exercise with scenarios will offer an inexpensive way to test and prioritize features throughout the development (see lesson #2 in the blog Responsive Design: Getting started).

Narrow and broad-scope personas achieve different goals. Success depends upon knowing the tradeoffs and structuring your personas’ scope based on what you are trying to achieve. (7 min. to read)

Stanford University study on how couples meet. Note the statistics that have gone down, as well as those that have gone up!

P.S. This is an alteration of the graph in the report at the following link. I think the report graph is more accurate.

A video by George Hunt exposing the climate agenda as a control mechanism from the top of the World Order.

They have never cured even a single a soul. They only destroy life and lives. Hell, they do not even know a soul exists! They even “preach” in their texts that man has no soul! Try telling THAT to someone who has been outside their body and knows they are an immortal being!

An interesting listen!

Let’s say you are the president of a country that has been very successfully trading with your major trading partner and built up huge reserves in that country’s currency. This is both an asset, because you can buy things with it and a liability, because that other country can print lots more currency, thus devaluing what you have.

If you stick it in the bank it earns very modest interest and devalues with inflation and has the large downside of dramatic devaluation with dramatic inflation in your trading partner’s currency. And considering your trading partner is spending more than they are earning, that is on the cards.

If you dump that currency it will quickly become worthless. A not-so-attractive option.

If you buy precious metals with it that is some hedge against devaluation but no income stems from it. Also an unattractive option.

Or, if you got bright you could look around the planet and start buying up income producing assets af lasting value. Things like shipping ports, airports, livestock and crop farms, dairies, wineries and now hospitals.

You could also lend it to other countries for them to do with what they wished knowing full well that if they defaulted on their loans you could legally acquire some assets of that country to expiate the debt.

This is all very well if the country about which we are talking has a benign leadership. But if they are a beligerant neighbour, known to invade and subsume their less powerful neighbours by relocating their own citizens to their neighbour’s land and forcefully removing the citizens of their neighbour inside their own borders, to conduct trade espionage and steal tade secrets, suppress minority groups and religions, conduct state sponsored organ harvesting on live citizens then we have a potentially huge problem.

Then I learned that years ago they announced plans to relocate 300 million of their citizens to African countries to which they have loaned money and we start to see the pieces of a world domination plan fall into place.

A very different take on birds and animals...

Apparently the two most dangerous things you can do are to help people and to tell the truth in the face of popularly held false beliefs. I have been gulity of both.

I had an amusing phone call from a low toned individual. It’s interesting how low toned individuals try to bring you down but if you know the laws of life and universes it is actually a compliment!

I share this for those friends (too many to tag) on my communication lines who are on the front lines battling lies and ignorance so you can take a win when someone tries to invalidate you.

The gentleman who called me said, “We’re on a different wavelength.” and hung up.

He did not introduce himself. (Ill mannered)

He was not specific on his point of disagreement. (Suppressive generality)

He did not give me the opportunity to respond. (Low confront)

So he was rude in not introducing himself, a coward on not wanting to identify himself and not allowing time for a response and wanting to be destructive by virtue of being someone who is not specific and wants to put others in mystery (the bottom of the scale).

So his only product was to make me feel validated for being on a different wavelength to and threrefore unlike him!

Have a great day, truth-tellers!

Until next time,
dream big dreams,
plan out how to achieve them,
be continually executing your plans,
enlist people to your causes,
travel and/or read widely, preferably both,
all the while observing what you observe
rather than thinking what you are told to think,
think well of your fellow man,
take time to help your fellow man,
he sorely needs it and it will help you too,
eat food that is good for your body,
exercise your body,
take time to destress,
and do the important things
that make a difference -
they are rarely the urgent ones!
