I am not too sure about all this internet stuff about us mere humans being ruled by a race of reptiles from space. Surely, that is tin foil hat stuff? I mean, that would be a real conspiracy that would make 9/11 look like Pearl Harbor, or that the Saudi were involved in 9/11! Likewise the banning of Alex Jones, by order of some UFO creatures must also be false news, for  the banning was not even done by terminator IT robots, but by our friendly neighbourhood Zucky himself, so we know that it must be good:
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2018/08/10/report-facebook-ceo-mark-zuckberg-personally-made-decision-to-ban-alex-jones/

“According to the New York Times, the order to ban the radio host came from the very top. Citing sources from inside Facebook, The New York Times reported on the process that led to Jones’ suspension. The situation was volatile enough that Mr. Zuckerberg got personally engaged, according to two people involved in Facebook’s handling of the accounts. He discussed Infowars at length with other executives, and mused privately about whether Mr. Jones — who once called Mr. Zuckerberg a “genetic-engineered psychopath” in a video — was purposefully trying to get kicked off the platform to gain attention, they said.

     It seems that the US is facing yet another parasite/pest that has come from open borders (I allude to Africanised bees, which are a real danger here in sunny Florida), and this time it is ticks:

“The tick, the Asian longhorned tick (or Haemaphysalis longicornis), has the potential to transmit an assortment of nasty diseases to humans, including an emerging virus that kills up to 30 percent of victims. So far, the tick hasn’t been found carrying any diseases in the US. It currently poses the largest threat to livestock, pets, and wild animals; the ticks can attack en masse and drain young animals of blood so quickly that they die—an execution method called exsanguination. Key to the tick’s explosive spread and bloody blitzes is that its invasive populations tend to reproduce asexually—that is, without mating. Females drop up to 2,000 eggs over the course of two or three weeks, quickly giving rise to a ravenous army of clones. In one US population studied so far, experts encountered a massive swarm of the ticks in a single paddock, totaling well into the thousands. They speculated that the population might have a ratio of about one male to 400 females. Yesterday, August 7, Maryland became the eighth state to report the presence of the tick. It followed a similar announcement last Friday, August 3, from Pennsylvania. Other affected states include New York, Arkansas, North Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia.”

     With there being many articles on the web about how the elites were buying up land in New Zealand for “bolt holes” when the you-know-what  hits the fan, I was surprised to learn that things may not be as easy for them as they may hope:
  https://amp.smh.com.au/world/oceania/new-zealand-to-ban-foreigners-from-buying-homes-20180811-p4zwwi.html

“Foreigners face a ban on buying homes in New Zealand after a spending splurge by millionaires seeking doomsday bolt-holes crowded out local buyers and pushed up property prices. Home purchases by tycoons such as tech billionaire Peter Thiel, the PayPal founder, and Matt Lauer, the former NBC host who lost his job after allegations of sexual misconduct, have led the New Zealand government to crack down on the trend. The country's allure for the mega-rich planning a safe space to ride out the apocalypse has become almost a cliché in recent years. Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn co-founder, told The New Yorker last year: "Saying you're buying a house in New Zealand is kind of a wink, wink, say no more". But the country's centre-Left government, led by prime minister Jacinda Ardern, is blaming the apocalypse preppers for a major housing crisis, with rates of homelessness among the highest in the developed world.”

     Even though the gun banners have said some silly things, I never caught them saying that one did not have a right to shot thugs trying to rape and/or murder you. That all changes now, because it has been said and documented for the record:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-08-11-anti-gun-protester-says-you-should-never-shoot-home-intruders-who-want-to-rape-or-murder-you.html

“Gun control activists took to the streets for the “March on the NRA” recently. The August 4th protest took place in Fairfax, VA, just outside of the NRA’s headquarters. Their rallying cries included calls to dismantle the Second Amendment and ban “fully semiautomatic weapons,” and chants of “Shame! Shame! Shame!” Some were simply supporters of stricter gun laws, but others believe that American citizens should have their right to bear arms stripped away entirely. One protester, identified as “Amy,” told the National Rifle Association’s camera crew that she supported a full repeal of the Second Amendment, and stated she did “not think civilians need guns at all.” Another gun-grabber declared that people shouldn’t have the right to defend themselves and their families against home intruders. “A gun ban is absolutely what’s necessary. I think that we need to start from scratch with the whole gun issue,” the woman laughed. She added, “We have people who think it’s okay to kill an intruder into their house.”

     Who did not, as a kid, try to raise a few bob by selling lemonade? Well, in America, and no doubt soon here, police are cracking down hard on those sordid criminal types, especially the five year olds, with their socially harmful lemonade stands:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-08-11-americans-cant-sell-lemonade-assaulted-arrested-cops.html

“In the following clip, posted to REAL.video, Mark Passio from “What On Earth Is Happening” covers the recent spate of lemonade stand “crackdowns” where police officers have actually assaulted and arrested supposedly free Americans for “operating a ‘business’ without a license.” As you’ll notice in the clip, the people serving lemonade on the White House lawn were merely exercising what Passio refers to as their natural law rights – that is, the freedom to live, breathe, and engage in harmless activity without the threat of interference or violence. But they were quickly targeted by jackboot cops who know nothing of natural law, and actually work against it every single day in order to get a paycheck. “Setting up a lemonade stand, which has been a tradition in this country since its founding, [resulted in] cops … going over to them and saying that they’re operating a business without a license, to a child,” explains Passio. “You don’t need a license to do something that you have a natural law right to do, and that you’re not harming anyone as a result of that action.”

     I pay particular interest to material on health which may help our older readers. I use myself, probably one of the oldest people active here (age  … never ask a lady her age young fellow!), as a sample space. For example, today, having forgotten where I put my medication for memory loss, I am naturally worried about … what? Oh, memory loss, that’s right! What I need is some more exercise to literally blow the neural cobwebs out of my brain:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-08-11-exercise-preserves-brain-cells-and-prevents-memory-loss.html

“In a study carried out by researchers at the University of Jyvaskyla in Finland, the benefits of exercise on brain health have been emphasized. Researchers found that exercise can help preserve brain cells and prevent loss of memory, cognitive problems, and general problems in memory. For the study, the researchers assigned different groups of mice to three different workout programs in order to identify the effects of the exercises on memory and overall brain health. The three types of workout programs studied were weight lifting, running, and high-intensity interval training (HIIT). These were created as a model of approximately what the typical human might do in a workout program. At the end of the study, all of the mice exhibited general fitness gains.

     The James bond movies were interesting in their time, but that time now will come to an end, with the role of Bond likely to go to black actor Idris Elba. Who? No, I had not heard of him before, but he appeared in a small part in the Thor movies:
  https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/722149/james-bond-idris-elba-first-black-007-barbara-broccoli-luther-daniel-craig

     No point going into the details on this, for these politically correct movies deeply alienate people, and destroying the iconic Bond persona will be the same. It did not even work for Marvel in the comics. There is nothing wrong with Black action heroes, such as the Rock, who makes great movies. But, here we are tearing down an institution in the name of political correctness. I am sure that the backlash against this will sink the movie, and that will end the Bond movies. It is almost certain that there will be a boycott bond movement, if there is not already:

     I always had a bad feeling about Roundup. I had a neighbour who worked in Queensland doing spraying, and he felt that Roundup was so safe that one could drink it! What was going on in his brain? Was his blood 50 percent roundup?

“Some of the UK’s top DIY chains have put the popular weedkiller RoundUp under a safety review, after a landmark ruling in the US saw a man with terminal cancer successfully sue its manufacturer Monsanto. Homebase, which has over 250 stores across the UK, said Saturday that they would review all of their products which contain the herbicide glyphosate. “We have confirmed that we will be reviewing our range of weedkiller products,” a spokesperson for the company said. Another store, B&Q, said that they have been reviewing its weedkillers regularly since 2017.  “We have a record of acting ahead of legislation where appropriate. We led the way in removing three pesticides in 2013 and neonicotinoids from our flowering plants in 2018. “We offer alternatives to glyphosates and are currently undertaking a broader review of all our garden products,” a spokesman for B&Q said. The announcements come after an American school groundskeeper, Dewayne Johnson, successfully sued the agrochemical giant Monsanto in a landmark case. Johnson says he developed non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma after using Monsanto’s RoundUp and Ranger Pro weedkillers for years. A California state jury awarded Johnson $289 million (£226m) in compensation on Friday after finding Monsanto had not adequately warned users of the herbicide’s risks. They also found company officials to have acted with “malice and oppression” in their selling of the product despite its risks being known.”

     Today’s writing  has been devoted to aspects of cancer. First up is more good news about the wonders of a god curry, for curcumin, the active ingredient in curry, has been found to suppress head and neck cancers:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-07-24-curcumin-suppresses-growth-of-head-and-neck-cancers.html

“peer-reviewed studies have found that there are natural ways to fight cancer – including cancers of the head and neck. One such study, conducted by researchers from the UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, and published in Clinical Cancer Research, the peer-reviewed journal of the American Association of Cancer Research back in 2011, found that curcumin – the main component of the spice turmeric – can suppress a cell signaling pathway implicated in the growth of head and neck cancers. the researchers obtained saliva samples from 21 patients both before and after chewing two tablets containing a total of 1,000 milligrams of curcumin. An hour later, an additional saliva sample was taken, and other tests were conducted. UCLA’s newsroom explained:

     History past and present shows that judges can be corrupted and judicial proceedings enacted falsely. One can say or write it in Australia with impunity, but not in Germany: the current understanding of the Holocaust may be in serious and extensive error. This week, it appears, the Constitutional Court (Germany’s highest court) ruled that the principle of the freedom of speech does not cover “Holocaust denial”. The court’s declaration is completely false and unprincipled, a disgrace to the judges responsible and to other Germans who have allowed this travesty of justice to occur. The Court’s pronouncement was made as part of its rejection of an appeal by 89 year-old Ursula Haverbeck against previous judicial decisions that led to her recent imprisonment. She had argued that Nazi Germany’s alleged mass murder of millions of Jews and others is “only a belief” and that Auschwitz has “not been historically proven” to have been a death camp.

     The Court ruled that “punishment for denying the National Socialist genocide is fundamentally compatible with Article 5(1) of the Basic Law, which guarantees freedom of speech.” It asserted that “the dissemination of claims that are proven to be untrue and of deliberately false assertions” is not covered by free speech. Those claims referred to have not been proven to be untrue and the Court has no excuse for not knowing that. The publications of a host of historical revisionists from Paul Rassinier and Robert Faurisson to Germar Rudolf and Carlo Mattogno have cast enormous doubt on the central assertions of what may be justly called “the Holocaust myth”; and the nature and tenor of their writings cannot be dismissed validly in any honourable way other than by intellectual debate. It is laughable to suggest that such commentators have engaged in “deliberate falsehoods”.

     After internet censorship comes the next big thing in anarcho-tyranny, where Facebook is asking banks for customer financial data transactions! What next? When will this end?
  https://www.wsj.com/articles/facebook-to-banks-give-us-your-data-well-give-you-our-users-1533564049 
  https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2018/08/06/facebook-asks-banks-for-customer-financial-data-transactions/

“Facebook has been asking banks in the United States for their customers’ financial data, including account balances and transactions, according to a report. The Wall Street Journal revealed that the social network has been asking major banks to “share detailed financial information about their customers, including card transactions and checking account balances, as part of an effort to offer new services to users.” The banks asked by Facebook included JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, and U.S. Bancorp, while one “large U.S. bank pulled away from talks due to privacy concerns.” “Facebook has talked about a feature that would show its users their checking-account balances, the people said. It has also pitched fraud alerts,” reported the Wall Street Journal, which claimed, “Facebook has told banks that the additional customer information could be used to offer services that might entice users to spend more time on Messenger.”

     Most of us know that the modern world is in crisis point, and the near future will involve a great reckoning for the dismantling of tried and proven traditional society, in favour of a cosmopolitan experiment based around money and materialism. One of the things that will need to be looked at closely as things fall apart is the cost of modernity to women, who have been made into “womyn”:
  https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/08/04/upshot/up-birth-age-gap.html

“Becoming a mother used to be seen as a unifying milestone for women in the United States. But a new analysis of four decades of births shows that the age that women become mothers varies significantly by geography and education. The result is that children are born into very different family lives, heading for diverging economic futures. First-time mothers are older in big cities and on the coasts, and younger in rural areas and in the Great Plains and the South. In New York and San Francisco, their average age is 31 and 32. In Todd County, S.D., and Zapata County, Tex., it’s half a generation earlier, at 20 and 21, according to the analysis, which was of all birth certificates in the United States since 1985 and nearly all for the five years prior. It was conducted for The New York Times by Caitlin Myers, an economist who studies reproductive policy at Middlebury College, using data from the National Center for Health Statistics.

     This is a story which Australian readers may not have heard about, so here it is.
  https://www.cnet.com/news/what-is-qanon-deep-state-trump-conspiracy-explained/

“In October 2017, a user going by the name "Q" began posting to 4chan's /pol/ message board. You may know /pol/ as a far-right board, famous mostly as an online swap meet for Pepe memes. But /pol/ -- and related communities on 8chan, Reddit and Twitter -- can be incubators for the most extreme theories that reach conspiracy theorist sites like Infowars. Those communities have long been launchpads for neo-Nazis, white nationalists, incels and other groups to share their messages. Q claimed to possess insight into the inner workings of the American government, particularly agencies tied to the so-called Deep State. He or she warned of the "Calm Before the Storm." That message kicked off a conspiratorial hydra, which has since come to tie in everything from Trump, North Korea, Pizzagate, the Alabama Crimson Tide football team and Tom Hanks. The "anon" portion of QAnon is a reference to 4chan and 8chan users referring to anonymous users as "anon."

     Readers will be aware by now of the banning by big Techno of Alt Right sites. But, that is simply the beginning, as many other sites are targeted. One pain in the side of the Deep Staters, are climate change deniers, for the climate change hoax is merely done to ring in a One World government: you know the story by now, thanks to good videos floating around in the CO2. Just have a Captain Cook at this great little video, which is not yet censored, “Global Warming and the Carbon Tax Scam”:
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isLK-cwi_cE

     That video made me burn every piece of scrap paper I could find to produce that beautiful, but politically incorrect gas, carbon dioxide. Nevertheless, the days of such videos, however glorious, may also be numbered:

     Recently the Israeli Prime Minister declared his desire for all of Israel to be for Jews only. I did not hear one squeak of opposition from anyone around the world. Yet when Senator Anning proposes for Australia to avoid too much social division by restricting immigration, he is broadly condemned from the Prime Minister down. Do you find this inconsistent?

     I think that it is an excellent idea for Arts/Farts courses at uni to allow students to pick their own grades, as discussed here:
  https://www.thecollegefix.com/post/47730/

“A literature class at Davidson College this fall will use “contract grading,” allowing students to pick ahead of time their grade for the class and the workload they need to complete to earn it. The offer is posed by Professor Melissa Gonzalez for her Introduction to Spanish Literatures and Cultures course, SPA 270, at the private liberal arts college in Davidson, North Carolina. She is one of several professors across the nation who allow this pick-your-own grade method, billed as a way to eliminate the student-professor power differential and give students control of their education. But critics contend it is just another example of how colleges coddle students from the harsh realities of the real world, which includes competition and goal expectations. As for Gonzalez, she argues there is “a strong pedagogical rationale for contract grading” in an Aug. 1 email to students obtained by The College Fix. “It can help students focus on learning more than on grades, and therefore make more progress in their learning, with less anxiety.”

Antifa, Antifa, burning in the night …
Antifa, Antifa, smashing everything in sight …
End the West; death is best
To these ends we never rest …

     Antifa protests in Washington DC last weekend saw the Antifa, who turned up to bash “racists” disappointed when there were no Alt Righter to bash. So, they fought with police, who they also called “racists.” Further to this, there were chants of death to America, no USA at all, as well as death to Trump, with direct threats by the disguised cowards, to murder Trump. Imagine if that was done by conservatives to Obama, … heads would “roll” faster than you could say “fake birth certificate.” (Interesting how nobody ever discussed the ramifications of Obama being an illegally elected president.)

     I recently wrote a blog piece discussing the issue of the health threat of microwaves on the heart. To the editor’s surprise, the blog was drawn to the attention of some medical researchers who are at the cutting edge of this research, and they kindly forward a research paper. The paper is: “Cardiovascular disease: Time to identify emerging environmental risk factors,” by  Priyanka Bandara and Steven Weller, published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology 2017, vol. 24(17) 1819–1823. Not having any access to a university library, I could not provide a link for readers. But, we did have provided a useful press release, so, as we are legitimate journalists:

“This paper was prompted by a new Australian study that found an increasing proportion of heart attack patients without the established risk factors: high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and smoking. Cardiology researchers led by Prof. Gemma Figtree investigated patients reporting with a first-time heart attack at the Royal North Shore Hospital (RNSH), a major Australian tertiary hospital of the University of Sydney. Their research found a clear increase in the percentage of patients from 2006 to 2014 whose heart attacks were poorly explained by the standard risk factors. Based on their own data and complementary data from elsewhere, they emphasised the need to identify new risk factors. The link to RNSH study: http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/2047487317720287 Bandara and Weller draw attention to their recent review of experimental studies that have investigated oxidative stress: “In our latest review, 242 RF-EMR studies that investigated experimental endpoints related to oxidative stress (OS)16 were identified.

     A halal tax? Before reading this material I did not even know what it was, let alone expected that I was paying one, almost every time I chomped my choppers. It just goes to show how ignorant and uniformed I am, but at least I am learning:
  https://www.couriermail.com.au/news/queensland/halal-maleny-dairies-facebook-post-on-halal-certification-sparks-customer-backlash/news-story/58b60bf88ca9c0bb874f2a7e143c510a 
  http://pickeringpost.com/story/halal-scam-supported-by-the-courier-mail/4058

“A QUEENSLAND dairy company has sparked a heated online debate after announcing on its Facebook page that it will not seek Halal certification for its products. The posting by Maleny Dairies has triggered more than 24,000 Likes, with some praising the business and others accusing it of promoting xenophobia. “We do not wish to increase the costs of our products to cover the expense of Halal certification. We prefer to make sure our local farmers receive a fair and sustainable price for their milk,’’ the post states. Maleny Dairies owner Ross Hopper said he simply got tired of answering the same question about possible certification of products for Muslim customers. “We’re not here to bash other people,’’ he said. Supporters of the move thanked the business for “being true to Australia’’ and “loyal to our country’’. But critics said the move could inflame ethnic tensions and was also absurd, since milk is already considered Halal, or allowed by Islamic culture. “Well done Maleny for feeling the need to highlight this fact and create an outlet for the Islamophobes and the un-Australians to out themselves,’’ one woman posted. Mr Hopper said he did not regret the posting but the decision had created more work for his business because a number of offensive comments had to be deleted.”
