Editorial on Press Misrepresenting Facts
Press individuals are entitled to opinions, but it is unprofessional of them to be deliberately, objectively, biased. Take for example the death penalty applied to Ledell Lee, who was executed April 20th 2017 for the 1993 murder of his neighbor Debra Reese. She had been killed by a small bat her husband had given her for protection. Ledell was found with $300 stolen from Reese, an hour later. His DNA was on the bat, and a cloth used to grip the bat. Just prior to execution, more DNA was found on the bat that did not correspond to Ledell. However, it had not cleared Ledell, who had also been found to have raped two other women, and allegedly killed a third whom he never faced trial over, because of the death penalty conviction.
The new evidence was insufficient to overturn the case. It could have meant a third party was present when Ledell beat Reese to death, but had not taken her money and had not raped her. The DNA might belong to her husband who gave her the bat and possibly owned the shirt the bat grip was wrapped? However, according to the press reporting the issue for activists, the trial was unfair.
Editorial Headline reads 'mind control' but their minds seem ill disciplined
Mind control has been linguistically applied to describe a detached mechanical arm being manipulated through a silicon chip connected to a brain of a guy needing a prosthetic. There is even sensory feedback so the user can pick up breakables. It suggests a bright future for those in need of limbs, or in dangerous lines of work needing remote access. Imagine flying planes remotely with a feel for experienced turbulence?
But, mind control is not all about hope. In Victoria, in Australia we are under lockdown despite it being ineffective and expensive. However, independent members of parliament have gifted the ALP the means to declare lockdowns, although they had promised voters a vote for them would prevent such abuses of power. In this circumstance, mind control is more sinister. Bored with rules, and unable to work, syphilis cases are exploding. News promotes ALP incompetence, and attacks conservative government ministers, or actors.
Herd immunity is the only natural way to securely deal with COVID. Vaccinations help lead to it. Press don't yet understand that the two things are linked.

Here is a video I made The Burial of Sir John Moore at Corunna
Charles Wolfe (14 December 1791 -- 21 February 1823) was an Irish poet.
Born at Blackhall, County Kildare, the youngest son of Theobald Wolfe of Blackhall (descended from the Wolfe family of Forenaughts House, Co. Kildare), by his wife Frances, daughter of The Rev. Peter Lombard. Wolfe's grandfather (a first cousin of Lord Kilwarden) was the godfather, but widely believed to be the natural father of Theobald Wolfe Tone.
Lieutenant-General Sir John Moore, KB (13 November 1761 -- 16 January 1809) was a British soldier and General. He is best known for his military training reforms and for his death at the Battle of Corunna, in which his force was defeated but gained a tactical advantage a French army under Marshal Soult during the Peninsular War.
Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note,
As his corse to the rampart we hurried;
Not a soldier discharged his farewell shot
O’er the grave where our hero we buried.
As his corse to the rampart we hurried;
Not a soldier discharged his farewell shot
O’er the grave where our hero we buried.
We buried him darkly at dead of night,
The sods with our bayonets turning;
By the struggling moonbeam’s misty light
And the lantern dimly burning.
The sods with our bayonets turning;
By the struggling moonbeam’s misty light
And the lantern dimly burning.
No useless coffin enclosed his breast,
Nor in sheet nor in shroud we wound him,
But he lay like a warrior taking his rest
With his martial cloak around him.
Nor in sheet nor in shroud we wound him,
But he lay like a warrior taking his rest
With his martial cloak around him.
Few and short were the prayers we said,
And we spoke not a word of sorrow;
But we steadfastly gazed on the face that was dead,
And we bitterly thought of the morrow.
And we spoke not a word of sorrow;
But we steadfastly gazed on the face that was dead,
And we bitterly thought of the morrow.
We thought, as we hollowed his narrow bed
And smoothed down his lonely pillow,
That the foe and the stranger would tread o’er his head,
And we far away on the billow!
And smoothed down his lonely pillow,
That the foe and the stranger would tread o’er his head,
And we far away on the billow!
Lightly they’ll talk of the spirit that’s gone
And o’er his cold ashes upbraid him,
But little he’ll reck, if they let him sleep on
In the grave where a Briton has laid him.
And o’er his cold ashes upbraid him,
But little he’ll reck, if they let him sleep on
In the grave where a Briton has laid him.
But half of our heavy task was done
When the clock struck the hour for retiring;
And we heard the distant and random gun
That the foe was sullenly firing.
When the clock struck the hour for retiring;
And we heard the distant and random gun
That the foe was sullenly firing.
Slowly and sadly we laid him down,
From the field of his fame fresh and gory;
We carved not a line, and we raised not a stone,
But left him alone with his glory.

Don't give up on hope. Joseph Lyons was a successful Prime Minister of Australia. Lyons was PM from 1932 until his death in 1939. He had started as an ALP member, but created the UAP which was the forerunner to the Liberal Party. Lyons had also been Premier of Tasmania and Catholic. Lyons was the second known Catholic PM, after Scullin, and the only non ALP one before Abbott. Lyons was a schoolteacher who married a girl half his thirty six years, having met her when she was fifteen. They had twelve children together. Lyons was a pacifist who held to UK conservative policy regarding Hitler, and died before Churchill became UK PM. Menzies was Lyons' successor as leader of the UAP and inherited his PM's position.
William Cooper is not a well known name around the world, or even Australia. Born in 1860, Cooper was raised and educated on a Christian mission on the Murray River. The mission prepared him for a life of activism. The authorities of the time did not prevent Aboriginals from working, or even voting, but census statistics did not cover Aboriginals, and Aboriginals suffered extreme deprivation as their culture collapsed amid cargo. Cooper heard of Krystallnacht in 1938 and organised a march against Nazis. The march ended at the German embassy which refused to see him. In 2012, the German embassy accepted a copy of the march demands, delivered by a grandson of Cooper.
Meanjin cover up goes sinister. ANU opposes Western culture. New Race hate laws in NSW. Will it apply to Antifa and other extremist activists?
Drug dogs at party opposed by Greens. The party event is often a scene of drug deaths. Police have decided to police the event for drugs. They will use drug dogs, which are known not to be perfect. Children dying at parties are more distressing, but press are firmly with drug lords. Trump commutes sentence of first time drug user Alice Johnson who served 21 years.
Cricket CEO resigns in a year. Gay couple will fight on after Supreme Court rules against them. FB bans Imam Tawhidi for mocking Hamas. ABC's partisan Tony Jones opposes reason. Headline asked if Australia would die from Chinese sword. Australia's economy could tank with China, but is immune to Chinese swords.

Some things should not happen, but they do. At Melbourne's upmarket suburb of Brighton an Islamic terrorist refugee on parole got a gun, murdered an innocent ethnically Chinese man and used a prostitute to lure police. The girl is ok, but traumatised. Poor ASIO is wondering what happened. They had not known refugees could be involved with terror. Asked on radio station 3AW how it was a parolee could get a gun Neil Mitchell and Derryn Hinch said it was too easy to get a gun, and Trump was an idiot, presumably for Trump's stance on firearms. One gets the impression that media are downplaying the basic fears Australians have with violent offenders being paroled. The evil loser had apparently had a monitoring bracelet. Malcolm Turnbull asked Dan Andrews how the terrorist could get parole. Andrews replied that it had not been the first time the terrorist applied, and so, although the terrorist clearly had not reformed, it was deemed appropriate to release him. The reasoning Andrews gave was not clear. Was the terrorist released because Andrews did not want to appear as if he ran a GITMO style prison system? That is one less dinner guest for Turnbull this year. An evil loser has been de radicalised, too late for wounded police, a family man and a young woman. Or for the ASIO chief.

Fairfield Council discussed flood mitigation measures at 166 Sandal Crescent in 2003. A few years earlier, floods had reached the roofs of the garages of 168 Sandal Crescent. Strata members wanted money spent on useless measures in the hopes of inflating property values. But with Tim Flannery's later pronouncements that floods would not happen again because of global warming, it is unlikely that council proceeded with flood mitigation measures. One measure was to create a temporary sewage sump offline, which would prevent mains backing up as they had in '01. Now abysmal weather has flooded much of the east coast of Australia. Meanwhile, Shorten's election pledge regarding child funding will benefit millionaires and make it more expensive for struggling families. It is a reminder that Shorten's former union diverted money from members.

The 16 year old vote is something extreme left teachers desire. The brain has not yet matured and judgement and decision making is skew. It is a bit like the judgement of left wing supporters. One meme circulated by Zeitgeist movement claims that capitalism is no better than communism for housing, savings and labour forces. It is valid for someone to assert it, but simply not true when statistics analyse it. Like the thought bubble surrounding giving 16 year olds the vote, it is not a good idea. Not because 16 year olds are not responsible, but irresponsible behaviour in children is expected and manageable as children, while irresponsible behaviour in adults is a problem for the entire community.
There is something called a zero sum game. The theory of the zero sum game is that the inputs and outputs are the same. So workers eat and produce, or bosses eat, but not both. But the theory is too simplistic. It is applied to communism and capitalism and suggests neither matters. But there is something under capitalism called wealth creation. With wealth creation, workers work and everyone gets fed. The problem under communism is that wealth creation gets restricted. Under capitalism, wealth creation can be maximised. It is capitalism which prevents poverty.
Simple illustrations include China in the sixties with China of the new millennium. In the sixties and fifties, drought struck China starved tens of millions of people to death. Today, millions are getting wealthy. In Australia, The Hawk Keating ALP governments were 5% pa behind the Howard government for average worker earnings, with ALP constricting workers pay and Conservatives growing worker's pay. But the meme goes on. There is a theorem of the economic concept of externalities which suggests the meme is correct. The theorem is unsupported by reality.

Knowledge is driven by teaching and learning, but the recent reflexive thoughtless activity of the CSIRO does not constitute best practice. It is precisely because of the partisan nature of the CSIRO the ALP is stridently denouncing the creation of a research fund backed by a $7 co payment to a doctor. But when one becomes partisan, there can be victims. One example of this is the terribly biased news organisation Al Jazeera which prides itself on its close contact with terrorists in the Middle East. But, because Al Jazeera is so clearly partisan, enemies of its' affiliates, e.g. Egypt, can prosecute Al Jazeera journalists. And those journalists have their private interests compromised as a result. An Australian journalist is facing 15 years in jail, and is lucky not to be facing a death penalty. However, many terrorist victims have paid the higher price.
Some say it is the inhumane experimentation of people like Mengele which drive knowledge in large strides. The body of that butcher was exhumed in the land he had fled to, on this day in 1985. An outrageous abuse of power had led to the scientific discovery of the process of digestion. It involved an accident that happened on this day in 1822. Alexis St. Martin was shot in the gut, and there was insufficient remaining flesh to cover the hole. An army surgeon, William Beaumont took the opportunity to study the working gut. And that is why we know how a Big Mac gets digested.
It is fun to stay at the YMCA. And people could do so from this day in London in 1844, after it was founded. Andrew Jackson was not a good President of the US, but he was the first to ride on a train on this day in 1833. They say but for venetian blinds, it would be curtains for all of us. But it was the Venetians who did for Holy Roman Emperor Maximillien I on this day in 1508.
However, this day should forever be remembered for the invasion of Normandy in 1944. In terrible weather, over 150,000 men of many nations faced a dug in and determined Nazi defence, and won. The invasion would balloon to over a million in following days, and liberate Western Europe from oppression. Technically, the UK remained at war with Finland, being the only example of democracies who declared war on each other. UK relented in '47.

Today's Old Testament reading: 2 Chronicles 23-24
1 In the seventh year Jehoiada showed his strength. He made a covenant with the commanders of units of a hundred: Azariah son of Jeroham, Ishmael son of Jehohanan, Azariah son of Obed, Maaseiah son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat son of Zikri. 2 They went throughout Judah and gathered the Levites and the heads of Israelite families from all the towns. When they came to Jerusalem, 3 the whole assembly made a covenant with the king at the temple of God....

The Vine and the Branches
1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me...."

Morning
Noah was shut in away from all the world by the hand of divine love. The door of electing purpose interposes between us and the world which lieth in the wicked one. We are not of the world even as our Lord Jesus was not of the world. Into the sin, the gaiety, the pursuits of the multitude we cannot enter; we cannot play in the streets of Vanity Fair with the children of darkness, for our heavenly Father has shut us in. Noah was shut in with his God. "Come thou into the ark," was the Lord's invitation, by which he clearly showed that he himself intended to dwell in the ark with his servant and his family. Thus all the chosen dwell in God and God in them. Happy people to be enclosed in the same circle which contains God in the Trinity of his persons, Father, Son, and Spirit. Let us never be inattentive to that gracious call, "Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee, and hide thyself as it were for a little moment until the indignation be overpast." Noah was so shut in that no evil could reach him. Floods did but lift him heavenward, and winds did but waft him on his way. Outside of the ark all was ruin, but inside all was rest and peace. Without Christ we perish, but in Christ Jesus there is perfect safety. Noah was so shut in that he could not even desire to come out, and those who are in Christ Jesus are in him forever. They shall go no more out forever, for eternal faithfulness has shut them in, and infernal malice cannot drag them out. The Prince of the house of David shutteth and no man openeth; and when once in the last days as Master of the house he shall rise up and shut the door, it will be in vain for mere professors to knock, and cry Lord, Lord open unto us, for that same door which shuts in the wise virgins will shut out the foolish forever. Lord, shut me in by thy grace.
Evening
The distinguishing mark of a Christian is his confidence in the love of Christ, and the yielding of his affections to Christ in return. First, faith sets her seal upon the man by enabling the soul to say with the apostle, "Christ loved me and gave himself for me." Then love gives the countersign, and stamps upon the heart gratitude and love to Jesus in return. "We love him because he first loved us." In those grand old ages, which are the heroic period of the Christian religion, this double mark was clearly to be seen in all believers in Jesus; they were men who knew the love of Christ, and rested upon it as a man leaneth upon a staff whose trustiness he has tried. The love which they felt towards the Lord was not a quiet emotion which they hid within themselves in the secret chamber of their souls, and which they only spake of in their private assemblies when they met on the first day of the week, and sang hymns in honour of Christ Jesus the crucified, but it was a passion with them of such a vehement and all-consuming energy, that it was visible in all their actions, spoke in their common talk, and looked out of their eyes even in their commonest glances. Love to Jesus was a flame which fed upon the core and heart of their being; and, therefore, from its own force burned its way into the outer man, and shone there. Zeal for the glory of King Jesus was the seal and mark of all genuine Christians. Because of their dependence upon Christ's love they dared much, and because of their love to Christ they did much, and it is the same now. The children of God are ruled in their inmost powers by love--the love of Christ constraineth them; they rejoice that divine love is set upon them, they feel it shed abroad in their hearts by the Holy Ghost, which is given unto them, and then by force of gratitude they love the Saviour with a pure heart, fervently. My reader, do you love him? Ere you sleep give an honest answer to a weighty question!

I am a decent man and don't care for the abuse given me. I created a video raising awareness of anti police feeling among western communities. I chose the senseless killing of Nicola Cotton, a Louisiana policewoman who joined post Katrina, to highlight the issue. I did this in order to get an income after having been illegally blacklisted from work in NSW for being a whistleblower. I have not done anything wrong. Local council appointees refused to endorse my work, so I did it for free. Youtube's Adsence refused to allow me to profit from their marketing it. Meanwhile, I am hostage to abysmal political leadership and hopeless journalists. My shopfront has opened on Facebook.

I am publishing a book called Bread of Life: January.
Bread of Life is a daily bible quote with a layman's understanding of the meaning. I give one quote for each day, and also a series of personal stories illustrating key concepts eg Who is God? What is a miracle? Why is there tragedy?
January is the first of the anticipated year-long work of thirteen books. One for each month and the whole year. It costs to publish. It (Kindle version) should retail at about $2US online, but the paperback version would cost more, according to production cost.If you have a heart for giving, I fundraise at gofund.me/27tkwuc (Gofundme finished the fund raiser, 2017)
