The International Space Station.






( Me at my place )

I am coming out and proudly declaring the following:

1. I am an Aussie white bloke of European descent.
2. I am heterosexual.
3. Although not religious I tend to believe in the so-called Christian values and
beliefs.

Subject " The International Space Station " 19/2/2018.

G/day people wherever you are I hope you are enjoying life to the best of your
ability and circumstances ? which may sound/read somewhat hollow to the
millions effected by war and destruction in the middle east,Yemen and the school
massacres in the USA.

With the exception of the sudden death of my oldest,a successful and respected
medical Doctor,son some ten years ago I have lived,and living,a life that not only
millions but maybe billions of people could only wish for,and therefore at 77
approaching 78 years old and to live currently in one of the most dynamic and
beautiful places such as the Tamworth Region/NSW New England area and not
just in Aussie but,having travelled/lived in many countries and continents,in the world,
therefore I believe it is not only a privilege but currently the " Icing on the cake " as
the saying goes.

However no matter where I have lived/visited in the world/Aussie there are nearly
always negatives of various categories,and as I have discovered over the many
years the Tamworth Region,New England,Northern NSW and Southern Queensland
are subject to near drought conditions,35-40 degree heat made worse by very
strong 25/30 kilometre West/North West winds as we have suffered currently,
where the grasses/country side,garden lawns turn into a dusty dried brown colour
giving the impression of a sandy desert ??.

That said I have to announce that as I type this the drought conditions seems to
have broken ?? and with all the other sounds turned off,TV/Radio etc; I can hear
the romantic rhythmic drum of very welcome steady rain on my roof, which would
be even far more pleasant if that bloody noisy cricket outside would find himself
a girl friend for the night and shut up!! Ah he has stopped ? must have heard me
or is otherwise heavily engaged in some extra curriculum activity? hopefully lucky
girl.

Hearing the rain is very comforting because it shows me that Mother Nature,even
as she ages,hasn't forgotten that although we thank her for our generally beautiful
blue sky low humidity climate we do require a substantial drink occasionally.



An Aussie New England Starlit night.

However as the saying goes " Every Cloud has a Silver Lining " or in our case no
cloud at all,where the drought with it's cloudless pollution free skies allows us to
view the magnificent and awe-inspiring/stunning Mother Natures night time sparkling
diamonds in the black night time sky,where without any artificial street/domestic
lighting the night is so black it is impossible to see your hand in front of you! and
as a consequence I have to ensure that my glass of Guinness on the table beside
me is so strategically place I know where to find it in the dark without having to turn
my torch on.



The international space station.

Some nights ago at about 8.30 - 9 pm I was sitting under this magnificent arena
of stars,something I never get fed up with and if I am able,especially if I cover my
exposed areas with pure good old Bosisto's Eucalyptus Oil to stave off the mozzies,
who I might add have had their numbers reduced as a result of the drought,to stay
for hours where I watched again in some what of an awe as the International Space
Station flew across the black nights sky from say east to west at great speed with
it's glistening ? solar panels.

I believe that even for a fairly well travelled,well informed bloke like me to sit there
in total darkness,sipping my Guinness and watching a space craft flying over me
at I believe some altitude of between 330 - 435 kilometres above me,at speeds of
some 27,600 kmph and for every 24 hours after orbiting the Earth every 90 minutes
completes it some 16 times,and has a team of humans on board doing various
activities and trying to live normal as possible lives is a bit hard for me to get my
77 plus mind around? even when you consider the changes/experiences I have
witnessed in my (7) decades plus (7) years since 1940??.

Looking up at this magnificent night time spectacle shows,confirms to me,what a
pompous bunch of Western civilisation bastards we are,I mention Western because
the non-Western societies/cultures around the world seem to have a better,more
subdued attitude and understanding of life's purpose,where we believe we are so
important,special,unique,where in actual fact our presence in this magnificent
universe is something so small that our greatest mathematicians could not calculate
our worth and/or our worth while impact considering the magnitude of the
task,and where the multitude of universes keep evolving where we in comparison
end as just dust in the majority of cases in less than a 100 years,and maybe a
book/records showing we existed yet lost in the library of time amongst millions of
other books/records,and all that we build/produce starts to deteriorate from that
moment on as everything has a very limited "Used by date"/"Shelf life"

Where in comparison to the universal time immemorial it is has been of very little
significance,nor will it be in the future,regardless of the " Earth shattering " effect
we humans egoistically believe we have,or have had on the evolution of time.

However people even my sitting in awe watching the "Real World" of Mother
Natures magnificent starlit night and the modern spectacle of the International Space
Station has a " Used by date " attached to it and I am somewhat compelled to retire
to my dwelling and on turning on my TV I am brought back to the,Phony,Sham,
False,Fraudulent world of Aussie politics,where the Aussie pollies,in most cases,
take the hard earned Aussie Tax Payers scarce funds under false pretences when
they practice their deception,duplicity and skullduggery in purporting to represent
their millions of constituents,when in actual fact they in the majority of cases
represent themselves first,their party,if they belong to one,second,and ensuring
they get elected at the next election in order to continue to be employed and
protect that world standard,by any measure!!,Aussie fully funded Tax Payer
pollie retirement payout third.

Us??? well after we take into account their mates,and possible influences in
regard to their "Life after politics" ? they all seem to land themselves plum jobs
in some charity or some corporation or other, then ? what do you reckon??.




Barnaby Joyce the Ex Deputy PM and Leader of the National Party now a back bencher,
but still the most recognised and influential rural pollie Aussie has currently, and a great
loss to the Federal Ministry,Cabinet and the Coalition front bench,as a result of being
politically shafted in the back by our Prime Minister the magnificent,bumbling,politically
naive,lacking any political nous Malcolm Turnbull.

Malcolm Turnbull PM and some of his upmarket mates.


So what do you reckon people was Barnaby Joyce:

1. A threat to national security in anyway?
2. A threat to Aussies financial stability and future wellbeing?
3. Flagrantly abused his political influence/power that may seriously effect the
    Aussie nation as a whole for personal financial/or otherwise gain.

or all of the above??

The answer ofcourse is no absolutely not!!!

Yet when you/we consider the massive problems Aussie has in every which way
from the ' Cradle to the grave ' and where over say the last (3) weeks at obvious
considerable cost of easily 100's of 1000's of scarce Tax Payer dollars of equally
scarce parliamentary time has been totally wasted because Barnaby has left
his wife and " Adult kids ",had an affair with one of his female,I have to mention
" Female " because there are so many bi-sexual/homosexual limp wrister's
in Federal Parliament you can never tell these days!! parliamentary assistants
where she is now pregnant to him and I gather they are now living together as
a couple?

WELL,WELL,WELL what a national disaster how will Aussie ever recover from
this divesting and horrific situation???

But wait there is more!! the pollies are going to waste even more 10's of 1000's
of hard earned scarce Tax Payer dollars, so parliament can investigate if Barnaby
used Tax Payers funds in regard to say travel expenses for him and now his
pregnant partner ? and was the transfer of this said partner,notice I do not
mention the ladies name I believe in farness to her,to another government
department legitimate and above board??

People if we did not see the antics of these political bastards on a regular bases,
where for no other reason they spend our taxes on no more than political point
scoring,and where these devious bastards have been across the board up to
this sort of skullduggery for political decades ? if not forever!! then ofcourse we
should not be surprised just how far these majority of low life's can go.

Now people I could go on as I have gathered a lot more information,however I
am getting to the point of my 77 years ? thinking why bother as the majority of
Aussies at election after election keep voting the same majority of these
next-to-useless bunch of amateur,self interested pollies back into parliament
each time!! so I am thinking I will just grab myself another Guinness and go and
sit outside in the real world and see if I can see that International Space Station
fly over again.

However as a passing shot I believe the Pickering,in his usual fashion,cartoon
depicted below sums up the Barnaby debacle in parliament perfectly!! but
ofcourse only depicts the heterosexual goings on in Federal parliament and omits
the debauchery in regard to the gay/lesbian/bi-sexual activities??

" The Greenies try for political relevance by creating National Division "








(Me at my place)

I am coming out and proudly declaring the following:

1. I am an Aussie white bloke of European descent.
2. I am heterosexual.
3. Although not religious I tend to believe in the so-called Christian values and
beliefs.

Subject: " The Greenies try for political relevance by creating National Division " 3.


G/day people wherever you are??.




Senator Richard De Natale the Federal Head Greenie.

I believe it is well excepted that the Aussie Greenies are a very narrow prospective,
niche,socialistic verging on communistic,all care and no responsibility,anti-Aussie,
opportunistic political lightweights,exploitative,ambulance chasers minor party with
at best a 10% vote at national federal elections,where with the advent of many other
minor parties and so-called
independents their Federal Political influence/numbers
are diminishing at every Federal election,even in the Aussie state parliaments they
are more of a nuisance/
annoyance value as they no longer hold the balance of
power across the Aussie
political spectrum,and Aussie is across the board a better
place for it!!!

However the Greenies are now trying to destroy,disrupt our Aussie way of life by
stealth and via our many 100's of local governments by getting Greenie Party members
on the various
councils,and by wedge politics and dividing the various communities with
left bias and noisy demonstrations are making it as difficult as possible for businesses
to invest in the communities by insisting on outrageous/scandalous politically correct
Greenie environmental terms and conditions making it just to unprofitable to continue.

The Greenies try to find anything controversial in order to get headlines in order to
try and become politically relevant where they tried immigration and failed miserably
to get the Aussie population on side!! climate change which according to many polls
is becoming far less relevant in regard to the majority of Aussies priorities,gay
marriage which the major parties,Liberal Coalition/Labor Parties,took over and had
it passed through parliament not needing the Greenie vote.

So all in all the Greenies stand for little of which the majority of Aussies (90%) value
and
therefore is it any wonder they are a walking political disaster and at best a
" Protest
Vote " amongst the disenchanted Aussie voters with the major LNP/Labor
parties!! therefore have " that and Buckley's " of ever achieving government and the
Treasury benches!! AMEN to that people, AMEN to that.

However people there is no end to these devious political low life Greenies in their
insatiable/voracious appetite for political relevance and headlines by dividing communities
and in fact the Aussie Nation as whole, and what better to divide the Aussie Nation than
racialism,and to condemn our " Australia Day on the 26th of January of each year " as
invasion day in regard to our indigenous population of Aboriginals and Torres Strait
Islanders and want the 26th of January changed to some other day ? not sure what day
but change
it anyway.

The Aboriginals/Torres Strait Islanders amount to about 3% of the Aussie population of
about 700,000 made up of many 100's of tribes and communities,and ofcourse as the
Aussie population grows from immigration and non-Aboriginal births their 3% and
relevance is shrinking
virtually by the day.

The vast majority of the Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islanders,say about 80%,are totally
reliant on the non-Aboriginal/Torres Islander Tax Payers ( Whities or worse they refer
to us as ) for their housing,medical and welfare generally.

Therefore as such the non-Aboriginal/Torres Islanders Tax Payers having problems,
financial and otherwise,to put it mildly,and considering that at
least 90% of us have
absolutely no " Ancestral Lineage " to what happened 200 plus years
ago on the 26th
of January 1788,and as such the Aboriginal/Torres Islanders rent-a-crowd where the
majority look like they could do with a good shower and clean up and wear some
clean
decent cloths,Greenies plus the other rent-a-crowd just looking for trouble,continue
to
attack,demonise the good Aussie citizens that currently supply the majority of the
indigenous welfare from their
hard earned taxes even though their doing it tough in
every which way,will eventually say "Enough is Enough"
and will start forcing their
political representatives in the future to make changes far less favourable to the
Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islanders,especially when it comes to referendums/plebiscites
in regard
to changing the Aussie constitution in their favour.

Then where will these devious,divisive Greenies be??

I will tell you,long gone enjoying their fully tax payer funded retirement,writing books,
giving public speeches and pointing the finger for the national disasters they have
helped
to orchestrate,mastermind and engineer on everyone else.

People I have not long received the following information which I believe for the sake
of realistic harmony across the board in Aussie should be well and truly broadcast,
before these low life lefty Greenies can create divisions in the Aussie nation making
the
situation far worse than it is currently and into the future.

Sir Mike Howe, but you can call me Mike. scroll down.

If you believe in what we as a Nation stand for, then read this and hopefully you may
understand a little of what we should believe in.

At the end the part about Germany, Japan and the USA is very important also and
puts things in a different light.
There is a fundamental point which goes to the heart of this debate that
literally no one, to date, seems to have picked up on. Hence, this article.
Native title can only exist if Australia was settled, not invaded.





here's a growing debate over Australia Day. Photo: Luis Enrique Ascui
This 'Right of Conquest' doctrine was first conceived by the International
Law Commission of the United Nations and later adopted as UN General
Assembly Resolution 3314.
Provided that all citizens of a lawfully conquered territory are granted equal
rights by the local law, international law doesn't consider the descendants
of the conqueror and the conquered as two separate peoples.
This in turn invalidates any claims to separate land rights under the same
jurisdiction.
As one of the 193 member states of the United Nations, Australia is not
exempt from this doctrine.
Yet we do recognise separate land rights because the historic Mabo
Decision in 1992 rested on the correct presumption that Australia was
settled, not invaded
.
In their ruling, Justices Brennan, Deane, Gaudron, Toohey, Mason and
McHugh acknowledged that native title could have been intentionally
extinguished by the use of government powers, but wasn't.
They proceeded to reject the 'terra nullius' doctrine without overturning the
traditional view that the Australian landmass had in fact been settled.
Had Australia actually been invaded, the descendants of its native population
would be classified as a conquered people and their land rights would be
abolished under UN Resolution 3314.
Greens leader Richard Di Natale might like to explain to the Australian people
why he is attempting to undermine native title by implying that Australia was
invaded and conquered.
On 26 January 1788, there was no sovereign state on the landmass we
today call Australia. The land was sparsely populated with disparate
nomadic tribes without a written language and a central government.
Captain Arthur Phillip's arrival with his group of disease-stricken poorly-fed
convicts in their new prison colony, on territory claimed for the British Crown
seventeen years earlier by explorer James Cook, does not constitute an
"invasion".
Far from the brutal instincts of actual invaders like Napoleon or Hitler, early
British settlers built a colony that was surprisingly harmonious and committed
to justice.
As the first Governor of New South Wales, Phillip developed a fondness for
the native Eora people in his new colony at Port Botany.
He befriended native man Woollarawarre Bennelong who became the first
native Australian to be escorted to England to meet King George III.
The federal seat of Bennelong held by former Prime Minister John Howard
for 33 years is named after him.
Phillip once forgave a native for stealing his shovel because he understood
that in native culture people shared what they had and there was no concept
of exclusive personal belongings. Hardly the attitude of an invader.
In 1816, Governor Lachlan Macquarie appointed native leaders to act as
conduits between settlers and natives.
He welcomed the natives who aspired to be part of the new colony. Hardly
the attitude of an invader.
Violent clashes were the exception, not the norm.
At Myall Creek in 1838, some 30 natives were killed by 10 settlers and an
African in Bingara, New South Wales.
The perpetrators were trialled, 7 of the 11 involved were found guilty of
murder, and hanged.
The rule of law prevailed. Hardly what happens in invaded countries.
Whether Australia's colonisation by the British Empire should be classified
as an invasion or settlement is not a question of mere semantics.
It's a question that holds serious legal and political consequences for our
country.
For most Australians, this debate is as settled as Australia itself on 26
January 1788.
American President Abraham Lincoln once said "a house divided against
itself cannot stand."
Let's unite to recognise that 26 January is a celebration of a democratic
story that would be incomplete without the Mabo Decision.

Let's never again disparage native title by referring to our settlement as an invasion.

Happy Australia Day 2018.
