Mangled Thoughts

A British Govt. funded longitudinal study has found what nay one who has studied geneitcs at matriculation level should be able to conclude, Genetic selection is safe.Funny thing, apart from using it all through the history of civilisation from its foundations, genetic selection is, I dimly recall, a crucial trigger to mergence of speices and diveristy of the same, as well as providing miniscule adaptations which deliver great advantages, it’s been there all along.Well, crocodiles and sharks are frankenstein monsters, so a krill murdering whales, spiders, ants asps, locust - a very long list of Frankenstein beasties in fact - why aren’t bloody greenies out there eradicating the freaks is the question.

Govt, industry sponsored study backs GM crops
A major British Government and industry-supported study of genetically modified (GM) crops has found no evidence that they harm the environment.

The four year study which received funding from the British Government and was assisted by the biotech industry, compared gene-spliced sugar beet and winter oil-seed rape to non-GM crops grown in rotation.

The study found the GM varieties did not have adverse effects on the environment and could help growers to save money.

The study also found that in respect of oil-seed rape, a large amount of seed remained in the field after harvesting and could have an impact on later crops.

Environmentalists say the study proves GM crops are difficult to control.

Having mentioned last week that bit of plopsim and poop, Newkirk and the delicious momnet, the AWI writ slapping, things get better:

VFF flags legal challenge to PETA
More legal challenges could be looming for animal rights activists.

Last week Australian Wool Innovation launched court action against PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, to stop it organising a boycott by retailers.
Now the Victorian Farmers Federation says if it’s successful in civil proceedings against Animal Rights South Australia, it’ll take the same action against PETA.
The VFF’s Simon Ramsay.
“We will always expect action, particularly from PETA, given their philosophy of companion animals not to be used for a food source: so yes, we will take on PETA, or any other organisation, that contravenes the injunctions that hopefully we’ll be successful in having, given these cases.”

During the Federal election, Ozzies in the U.S. were assaulted by some of the uglies

PETA focuses on Australian voters

Meanwhile Australians voting in the United States are the target of animal welfare activists protesting outside the Australian embassy in Washington today.

Members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, are demonstrating against sheep exports and the practice of mulesing, as Australians arrive to vote absentee.

Matt Kaye reports, one member is staging a 36-hour hunger strike to make a point.

“Camped out in front of the Australian embassy, PETA’s Matt Rice enclosed himself in a mock cage.”

“We’re out here in a cage for 36 hours without food.

Someone was not on the ball: as soon as the bastard entered the cage, volitionall, yit should have been clear, he wanted the door padlocked and cage and content dumped into the sea. Slow, slow, slow.

Meanwhile, the twin terrorist front, the greenies, are finding more excuses to halt progress and confiscate private property.:

Logging proposal angers heritage expertsReporter: Jocelyn Nettlefold

JOHN MULVANEY: The Government, probably the Federal Government should purchase the land and attach it to a park which almost surrounds it.

That would be the answer to the problem.

The private owners therefore would receive recompense.

KEN BACON: There would have to be a major catastrophe or disaster for me to even consider land acquisition.

JOCELYN NETTLEFOLD: While the Federal Heritage Council is still considering whether to list the sight, Tasmanian Heritage Minister, Ken Bacon, says he would fight any Commonwealth intervention.

KEN BACON: I don’t like people telling Tasmanians what they ought and ought not to do.

First bloody polticians, then in govt through the new stasiland agencies, EPAs and Orifices of Greenhouse Fartz, then CSIRO, now firefighting services recite the greenies’ rubbish and, blame bushfires on `Global Warming’:

Climate for disasterAsa Wahlquist
November 30, 2004

Assistant commissioner of the NSW Bushfire Service, Mark Crosweller…

He says higher temperatures, due to climate change, also increase the fire risk. “What seems to be happening is there is an increased chance of extreme days - the days where you get the 40C temperatures and the strong winds - and if you are going to get more of those then clearly you will have an increased risk of bushfire.”

But Crosweller points out there is no room for complacency. “We are seeing significant benefits, but we should also set that against what we see as a changing climate moving towards hotter and drier with more frequent fires. We will always have the challenge of keeping ahead of the game,” he says.

A Contradiction that matters not to the purveyers of bullshit:

Michael Coughlan, head of the National Climate Centre with the Bureau of Meteorology, says the seasonal outlook is for above-average temperatures along the eastern seaboard - with the risk of an increased number of days of extreme weather - and rainfall slightly below average in parts.

Recent rains, ironically, have heightened the risk. “It would seem to be quite a dangerous season because it is still fairly dry, but there has been extra fuel due to the growth in some spring rains,” O’Loughlin says.

That not at all funny comic Jim Carrie must be a hermaphrodite, type amoebic, and succeded in splicing himself. His other cell has turned up in Oz as Mr. Windsor, quester for the truth which must be out there, somewhere, in a shoebox under the closet in the deepest bowel of … of Parliament House.He assures everyone, it is so because, like Mulder and Scully, he has seen mysterious things, and some deep underground, hooded, type guy, who darkly hints, `it’s in a shoebox under the closet in the deepest bowel of of Parliament House’. yes, of course, it’s been there all this time, in P.H. ( Poos’ House) . As funny as Carrie’s dribbling and facial yoga and corking one liners like, `Oh, yeah’ and, `hello Cobber’, are, (cor, eh) , and with so much talent multiplied, the Guvmnt. must waste no time and put Windsor out to something profitable, Hollywood remakes of Carries’ ouvre. Exciting, can’t wait, terrific, when are the c.ds. out to fill the shelves with more junk.

Unable to flog a horse which hadn’t been born, he shifted ground, rambling on all day yesterday how he has brought to attention, by making the original allegations, the real truth, pork barrelling. Not pork barrelling per se, like, for example, the stolen taxpayer’s property thrown at local councils by Bracks during the last state election. Bracks, handed over some $50 m. to Geelong Council during that campaign, which boon came not long after Geelong Council had doubled rates. Yah, one act of theft on a massive scale by commie spivs should be met and rewarded with another by another pack of commie spivs.

Not that, oh no. Windsor draws a distinction between pork barrelling, and, pork barrelling which is politically stipulated and is so in order to buy votes, as he explained yesterday. The subtlety is lost entirely to this pundit who, hitherto merely held: that that is what the whole fat goddy almighty govt. is about, stealing property to hand out to shore up votes, and to entrench fat goddy almighty govt. Ah, Professor Windsor explains: some types of boon doggles are all to that mysterious being, `da national good’. Windsor, you see, is all for prok barrelling, so is Bob Brown, the Democrats, the ALP, the Coaltion. Apparently some pork is holy pork, some is godless pork, some is demonic pork. If it is holy pork, politicians have the divine imprimitur to extort, steal, blackmail and generally screw into the ground many who are relieved of their own property in the manner just prescribed : as Latham says, `redistribution’ is a great thing to do .Well, I can see why, who else can engage in extortion, blackmail and theft on a massive scale but commie fucking polticians : a line which is too difficult for the amoebas sitting in Canberra to work through, including Jim Carrie’s twin..

Bob Brown joined this morning Windsor’s call for an inquiry, so have the ALP, and the Democrats. Oh oh, another Scrafton Comedy Festival. Doh!. Dumber and Dumber ain’t in it. No, Bob Brown isn’t a Homer S.,. he’s just a bit of frog’s spawn washed down from some creek and sluiced up a cistern out onto a seat in parliamement which no one else will now sit in .

It is plain what Windsor’s real complaint is , the govt. should be throwing down the drain into his electorate some billions so he can run to the electors of the seat he occupies and say, I’m such a nice guy, look what I’ve done for you. Just another commie, theiving, pollie, distinguished by only the manner of his begetting.

As Louis observes below:

Where are all the protestors …
Now we hear nothing about the fradulent election process in the Ukraine.
Rather the idiot savants which masquerade as columnists in our newpapers and other media are totally mesmerised by the Latham Issue

Latham must be paranoid: Gallah has engaged in war against Blatters Latham, through his jihadis on the back benches, led, he identifies, by the chief Imamsuboollah, Stephen Conroy.

Such a flippant use of that word, jihad, by someone who aspires to be Prime Minister, demonstrates how boorish the man is, when, as Arlene Peck reminds over at Brookes.news,Like banging my head against the wall :

I kept saying that Israel was the canary in the coal mine;
Nobody in that dysfunctional culture that preaches death and thrives on bombs and “jihad” is moderate.
the crazed culture of militant Islam wants to destroy everything which doesn’t fit it in with its world view.
How much higher does the body count have to go before we wake up?

On the domestic front, Lindsay Tanner considers, as he related on Channel Nine’s, `Business Sunday’, ALP’s weakness is sof marketing. Typical of many in Oz, Lindsay confuses the Marketing function with the secondary deriviative, advetising and method of selling. He asserted, ALP has ` product’ to sell’. Downright tripe, Tanner, no poltical party and no govt. has a `product’, much less sell one. They are not market entities, they are merely consumers who consumes on the back of extortion and blackmail and large-scale theft. There-in is you problem Tanner, the Coaltion are socialistos, the ALP happens to be worse than they are, and they are bad enough as it is.

On the Foreign Affairs Front, Tanner, the ALP’s position is thoroughly discreditable. Rudd on the U.N. sums things up rather well. For next to the U.N. eing a Haven for nothing but lying, corrupt thugs like Anan and mass murderers, there is France, which is up to usual malevolent tricks, as in, how to ensure the malevolent create hell for others:

Anti-American Ba’th activities in Paris
Dr. Nimrod Rapaheli
BrookesNews.Com
Monday 29 November 2004

With the defeat of the Saddam Hussein regime on April 9, 2003, the Ba’th ruling party was outlawed and a committee for the de-Ba’thification of Iraq was established. However, the Ba’th’s propaganda machine appears to have found a new abode in Paris, France,…

The resurrection of the Ba’th Party on French soil was further strengthened by France’s proposal that representatives of “la resistance” should participate in any future conference that will be convened to discuss the future of Iraq.

As Mr. Rapaheli continues, it is the French Govt’s. position to back Islamo-fascist-totalitarina mass murdering thugs in Iraq and are working to the aim of having them installed as the regime of Iraq. And leftoids call the U.S. evil and nazified! What, pray then, must France be, Satan and all his host let loose? See, Latham, what happens when boors like your goodself exaggerate, it helps not at all in identifying and facing the truly malevolent in which ranks stands the Communisto Govt. of France.

The tax and spend habits of each tier of govt. One upshot, it cripples savings and the capacity to save, reflected in the extenisive usage of negative gearing. Inflation, as the Austrian school of economics point out regularly, is the reason for the `boom and bust business cycles’, by inducing malinvestments, the forging of money corrupting price signals, reflected in sharemarket and property market bubbles which, sooner or later burst. The habits of each tier of govt., taken with planning constrictions, stamp duties, purchase price subsidies ( first home buyers’ scheme) raises the price of property, govt. consumption and tax heist, has induced further allocation into housing. For the tax hits against investing outside of super and negatively geared property punishes allocation of savings into production.

The motive for the above cursory summary is, someone from a super company has just enumerated the above on ABC radio. Oddly enough, while arguing for a correction tot he underlying problem on the part of govt., he went on to say, however, savers should not be allowed to much choice , lest, for eexample, they “ set up their own funds”. When Keating announced in 1985 compulsory superannuation apropos ex nihilo, super companies joined in the announcement, saying what a wonderful and necessary thing it is. Well, of course, it gave them a govt. imposed monoply, for a time, over savings and their application. Except for one thing, the craven officers of those companies did not see what was blatanltly transparent at the announcement, compulsory super was a sitting duck for the Govt. to shoot at by wya theft -taxation. When the penny dropped, the super companies whined and gnashed their teeth, but it was too late. Meanwhile, all and sundry were the real losers, from savers to entrepeuners making capital work.

Without the punishment dished out by each tier of govts, completed by fiat money, the reality is most are capable of running their own financial affairs. The individual does not have to come from `wealthy families’, what is required is govt. which will, for once observe the distinction between meum and tuum.

The crippling asasault on private property, inclusive of tax on revenues and its split between income as consumer goods and savings, by each tier of govt. not only puts a spoke on progress but, as another consequence , fuels unemployment, or lower living standards, or both, and the latte si the case.

Kenneth Davidison is horrified that labour markets should be liberalised, well somewhat, since the reality of the Federal Govts. `reforms’ is still that of central bureacratic control over contracts. Regulation, Mr. Costello, does not equal the rule of common law at all. Instead, Davidson’s grand design is govt. consumption and `make work’ schemes. Kenneth Davidson is an economics writer for Mao’s Red Age.

Oz is dominated by the full spectrum of the socialist rainbow and even the Coaltion cannot come to grips with, there is no pot of gold at the end of it, it is simply ruinous. And too many in business hold a crude salesman’s ptich, people should simply buy what we tell them to buy. They are not marketers at all, they are not simply protectionsists, even by indirect routes per regulation, the are underneath, still hanker for a producers’ command economy - the failure of govt. is not to secure that for them is their notion of bad govt. Are they really businessmen, one says no they are not.The chap cited above is an instance: freedom (of choice too), oh yes, for themselves .They are on the right band of the socialist spectrum to the left band. Stealing, lying, userers all of them.
