If you haven’t fooled around with ChatGPT: I was looking out for a Persian song of Hafez’s poetry and tried Google. (sort of bizarre things I do) A complete mess. I tried ChatGPT. It gave me the poem in Persian and two translations in English in a few seconds with an explanation of the difference. So I tried Google translate to compare. The Google translation was way off, with the fabulous word “Bartender” for “my love gave me a cup of wine”.

The saga isn’t over. And it shouldn’t be. There was a secret multi-million dollar payout – that was taxpayer dollars that could be used for real problems.
In today’s Oz, Linda Reynolds gives her side of the story. Higgins is not innocent. She was an adult, 24 years old at the time, and made decisions to go to the media and not the police. But the lawsuits by Lehrmann and Reynolds suing the media should make the case for several millions and cause serious problems not just for the media outlets but the “journalists” like Wilkinson.
And taxpayers need to know how much was paid out and why.

Freedom of speech is not very free in the UK.
Last year Isabel Vaughan-Spruce was arrested for a thought crime – standing and thinking near an abortion clinic.
Around that time, Fr Sean Gough got into trouble for praying silently outside an abortion clinic and holding a sign.
If that wasn’t enough, he parked his car in a censorship zone. The car wasn’t the problem; it was the bumper sticker on the back.
The charges were dropped this week. But the prosecutor could not answer the question from the District Judge.

The country has been brought to a standstill by road blocks and protests. And so you’d think I would avoid visiting the country. However no, I wanted to visit and see what was happening on the ground and meet the Peruvian people. And practice my Spanish. Join me…
Thank you to Lucy my teacher and chama for patiently helping me learn Spanish this last year. Without her help this trip would have been completely different and only half and interesting.

The Trains of Wieambilla were a trio who wanted to live off-grid, off-society. They were drugged loonies with no connection to reality. Having a vendetta against society, against law enforcement, against sanity.
Shooting down someone who is not threatening your life or that of someone else (not self-defence) is murder. Definitely not Christian. Two men (brothers) marrying the same woman and living in some kind of strange arrangement is not a Christian marriage. Deliberately breaking laws, taking drugs, nothing Christian about that.
Today’s Gospel reading is from Matthew 5.
I know how hard it is to follow the teachings of Christ. I try and fail. Everyday. Just like other Christians. Christians are, due to their mortal status, imperfect, sinful beings.
So how does an investigation report on this incident describe the Trains as Christian extremists? This is a Christian extremist act of terrorism? Oxymoron?

Over in the US, the FBI had been carrying out federal surveillance of so-called “radical-traditionalist Catholics” – until there was a leak by a whistleblower.
Who are these radical Catholics? Just the ones who prefer such dangerous methods of prayer such as attending Traditional Latin Masses each Sunday, praying the rosary every day, and following the teachings of the Church handed down through the ages.
Who else doesn’t like Traditional Catholics?
The globalist pope.
There would have been a time, in the past, when police wouldn’t have been using terms like Christian extermists. The FBI wouldn’t have being carrying out surveillance of so-called radical-traditionalist Catholics. And the Pope of the Catholic Church would have been a traditional Catholic supporting his flock of traditional Catholics.
That question has been asked many times before when the answer was obvious. It is no longer rhetorical.

It would appear things are about to take the next step up in the West Pacific, Indonesia, into Philippines, as well as a few other locations to the North (Japan) and East (solomon islands).
Additionally, Europe is on the move, with Turkey still being under a watch for up to M5.9 in a different location than the previous large M7.5+ earthquakes. I am watching 200 miles East of Istanbul as the central point and then out from there to the border of Turkey.
We are waiting for the spread of seismic activity (earthquakes) to go up into Poland and out to the Mid-Atlantic / Iceland to the North pole, as well as the Azores to the West.
USA is on the move as well, with new M4.0 level activity due in California (no M4.9 has yet struck, down to the last day of the watch for Southern California Salton Sea).
The craton is moving for sure, as evidenced by the earthquakes across it over the past 48 hours. The train derailment issue is something which I discuss at length in this broadcast.
Additionally, I discuss California subsidence and quake activity. You can see the whole conference from the USGS, as well as “Brad Pitt’s younger brother” asking the oil question here (and him getting shut down at the conference when asking lol )

When I first heard the news (December), I was skeptical about the story given to us by the media. But just discounting everything and saying we can’t believe anything if it comes from some sources makes us the same as those who do not care about the truth, only what fits in with the agenda.
Here’s one question:
If the Mr Train who lived in NSW wanted to live a private life, why did he just disappear and not inform his family? He could have formally separated from his partner and told her he wanted no contact with her. Same with the other members of his family. Then they would not have been concerned and contacted the police and set off the chain of events.
Is it also fake news that after shooting down the cops, the Trains gleefully posted videos on social media?
In my comment above, I only dealt with the point about the Christian extremist act of terrorism. I’ll leave the Christian fundamentalist belief system, known as premillenialism for another day.

The Rage Against The War rally in Washington DC will start at 12.30 pm, Sunday afternoon. So that’s 4.30 am Monday morning AEDT.
My post on this rally is here. They’ve said it is going to be live-streamed but I have not been able to find the link.
I have been reading other sites on this and have two observations:
1. There are a number of bloggers, commentators, alternative media from both sides of the fence who are uniting on this issue of the war. Not supporting Ukraine and want the war to stop. Or at least their government to stop the aid and get out.
2. There are still some rather brainwashed ignoramuses, on some forums, who are supporting Ukraine and will not be taking part in the rally. I came across one site with some name like World for Socialism and they are not happy with their lefties who have teamed up with those horrible right-wingers on this anti-war rage rally. They seem to believe that the lefties are pro-Putin which goes to show how little research these dimwits do.
The Rage Against The War alliance has been clear that they are not on the side of Putin or Ukraine but against NATO and the war.

The story was changed from “welfare check” to “execute warrant for firearms offences” so that story is bs.
If we had sensible firearms laws – who cares what you own, it is what you do with them and there are perfectly good general laws dealing with that – there’d have been no reason for the cops to bother the Trains and the whole stupid thing would not have happened.
Lesson – there are people who just want to be left alone. Best do so.
Was there ever any suggestion that the Trains were a danger to the general public?

James Ure OBE (born 10 October 1953) is a Scottish musician, singer-songwriter and producer. His stage name, Midge, is a phonetic reversal of Jim, the diminutive form of his actual name. Ure enjoyed particular success in the 1970s and 1980s in bands including Slik, Thin Lizzy, Rich Kids and Visage, and as the frontman of Ultravox. In 1984, he co-wrote and produced the charity single “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”, which has sold 3.7 million copies in the UK. The song is the second highest-selling single in UK chart history.[1] Ure co-organised Band Aid, Live Aid and Live 8 with Bob Geldof. He acts as a trustee for the charity and also serves as an ambassador for Save the Children.
Ure is the producer and writer of several other synthpop/new wave hit singles of the 1980s, including “Fade to Grey” (1980) by Visage and the Ultravox signature songs “Vienna” (1980) and “Dancing with Tears in My Eyes” (1984).[2] He achieved his first UK top 10 solo hit in 1982 with “No Regrets”. In 1985, his solo debut album The Gift reached number two in the UK Albums Chart and yielded the UK Singles Chart number one single, “If I Was”. He also co-wrote Phil Lynott’s “Yellow Pearl”, which served as the theme of Top of the Pops for much of the 1980s.

That $100 Billion has been spent in the past 12 months, how much did the United States spend in the previous eight years?
Since 2014 the United States has been building and equipping the largest army in Europe of 450,000 men. They have also turned the eastern provinces of Ukraine into a fortress with multiple lines of heavily fortified positions, how much did all this cost?
The recent $100 Billion may be just a drop in the ocean compared to previous expenditure, is this where the Pentagon’s missing $1 Trillion went?
