Hi I thought lets have a thread where you can rant, get that thing off your chest, talk about any old thing, politics ok but if you bullshit too much i reserve the right to give you a stern talking too lol lets begin...

[Deano]

I am really pissed the Japanese government is sending a frigate to protect their whaling fleet, after dumping how many thousand tonnes of nuclear waste in the pacific ocean from their recent disaster you think they would give the planet a break, your thoughts?

[steve clougher]

According to Paul Watson's account, a couple of years ago someone shot him in the chest with a pistol from a Japanese whaling ship.....he was saved by having some solid object in his breast pocket.
A frigate would need a much bigger miracle
I'd be worried
Australia should send a frigate too, and NZ, one each
Just for scientific purposes of course

[Deano]

My sister says to me theres nothing you can do about it the worlds turning to @$#&!!*, just dont watch the news. I wonder what percentage of our population feels this way.

[steve clougher]

Well she's probably right in a way, the results of the last century's massive expansion, pollution and corruption have to work themselves out, too late to stop that now, but education, especially self- education, like this website and alt news sites like openUReyes, I reckon are positive. Pays to watch the establishment blues once in a while. Just dont let the cats and dogs see what people do to each other! Spend as much time and attention as you can in wild places. Someone once said there are basically three fields where you can achieve most good and least harm; medicine, education and agriculture. As well, it would probably behove us to think about local councils and small scale banking, as a stopgap for when the currency barons decide to once again pull the plug on everything we've worked for... There's plenty you can do, I suppose, if you want to look for work? :roll: :roll: :roll: :lol: :x

[Deano]

Let me put a scenario to you Steve, if you were prime minister of nz and say you sent a frigate to watch events in the southern ocean. What orders would you give to the captain of our frigate if the Japanese frigate starting sinking the protest boats?

[steve clougher]

That's a very good question, Deano, I'm glad you asked me that
Probably need to think about it for a while, but off the top of my head, I would say one crucial element would be getting live coverage to the world, another would be to act in a way that would not play into the hands of the enemy, and as to the details, if I think of something creative after a sleep or two, I'll let you know. Very difficult, but that's why pry ministers and naval commanders get lots and lots of money

[steve clougher]

Righto
First, quickly equip a couple of small ships with state of the art gear to listen and try and decipher whale song
Deploy one in the killing fields and one in waters where whales have peace and safety
I would put my house on the likelihood that there would be a discernible difference, and demonstrable high complexity
With the right personnel, this could be published in periodicals of the highest reputation, like Nature, and also pumped out to the mass media
If I was pry minister, though, I would also be working my little arse off, to improve my people's education framework, to get rid of ALL dumbing-down, such as we have always had for our "factory fodder", and generally to provide for the nurturing of every kind of intelligence, spiritual, physical, emotional, and even intellectual
I should confess, that with respect to wagering my house, I live in
a tent. Best kind of house for listening to birds, also no mortgage

[steve clougher]

I'd legislate that the highest paid person in my country or with financial interests in my country, could be paid no more than seven times as much as the lowest paid person
I'd provide for the reintroduction of common land, and the right of a worker to claim a share of the business after a qualifying period
I'd lay a lot more responsibility on my citizens
There would be regular moritoria on issues, and much more direct involvement by citizens in politics
I'd abolish rates based on property gaurs and revert to user pays services based rates
I'd look at limiting usury and reintroduce systems like the Sumerian one, which had a standard 20% flat rate with no reference to time
I think these reforms would help the whales, pretty quickly, and all the other creatures I would expect, even the evil banksters and their nephews and nieces

Breaking news, the container ship Rena stuck on the reef at Tauranga has lost 350 tonnes of oil overnight, too much mucking around, that will be a good look as it washes up on our tourist beaches tmoro. The government is looking a little incompetant on this.

[steve clougher]

Yeah, they generally have to discuss things with lawyers, who get paid by the hour
Then they have to think of the poor benighted insurance companies, who also need to discuss things with lawyers, who get paid by the hour.
Being paid for your time is something so normal, it's like talking to a fish about water: fish says, "water, what's water?"
Like Crown Land, noone realizes what it is, what it's legal basis is. Don't look! Quick, put heads back in sand, Crown Sand, preferably
I'm enjoying your Rant thread Deano

[steve clougher]

I dived on Astrolabe once, one of the best dives of my life, it got its name, I believe , when a French ship called Astrolabe bumped into it in the days before it was charted.... That was extremely unlucky, because that reef is a solitary little hazard in miles and miles of clear waters. It is really hard to understand how a modern ship could hit it accidentally. It really begs the question!

[Deano]

70 containers now broken free and in the water, captain arrested. Interesting oddity about the wine on board named astrolabe.

[Crakka]

[steve clougher]

What have you heard Crakka?

[Deano]

There is something weird about it, apparently also the captain of another ship had to take evasive maneuvers as the Rena was coming up the coast, cut right in front of his ship before later going on to hit the reef.

[steve clougher]

Normally, in the old days, the captain popped up on the bridge at intervals and stood with one hand in his coat lapel, and exuded terrifying authority, while an able-bodied seaman stood the wheel, supervised more or less fulltime by a deck officer, one of four mates or the navigating officer, standing with his hands behind his back.
I don't know how things go on a modern bridge, with no wheel, probably they've got rid of the AB, and the guy responsible for letting us all down was the officer on watch. Maybe he got sucked into stuff on his laptop? Of course, the buck stops with the captain. My Old Man was in the merchant marine for 15 years. Ended up navigating officer

[Deano]

Go the ALL BLACKS!!! \:D/

[Deano]

That was my 666th post I think some sort of chocolate fish reward is needed lol :twisted:

[Deano]

Hang on it was 666 but now its 667 I smell a conspiracy haha

[steve clougher]

Congrats Deano for being on the ball enough to notice and avoid the terrible fate of being ambushed by Crakka
Always good to see someone keeping their eye on the ball

Cool I found out how to cut and paste on my new phone, how I missed it so lol.

Please read this its a mock film script for the 2011 rugby world cup, well written.

[Crakka]

[Deano]

Hoorayyy!!! We have won the rugby world cup thank god!! The french pushed us to the end, what a valiant effort from them at that, the thin line, beaten by a point. I can already hear the car horns tooting outside. God this country needed that win. XOX lol :balloon: :blballoon: :heart :heart :heart :blballoon: :blballoon: :balloon: :cowboy: :cowboy: :blballoon: :blballoon: :blballoon: :balloon: :balloon: :blballoon: :heart :blballoon: :balloon: :heart :heart :blballoon: :blballoon: :balloon:

[steve clougher]

That was more a draw than a win
I'm on record on all blacks dot com saying a droop kick should be worth one point, a penalty two points, and a conversion three points
(a try stays at five)
Who gives a shut, we beat the Aussies , that's the big thing

[Deano]

Let me know if my links dont work, still gettin used to using a phone to post.

[Crakka]

That one worked but looks like you just left a gap between the first

[Crakka]

You want heaps of news and article links about the Fukushima thing, Rense is covering it pretty heavily although in my opinion the amount of coverage he gives it could amount to fearmongering in itself. Go have a look anyway - http://www.rense.com/ - lots of other interesting stuff there...

[Deano]

It is a bit gloomy, poor mother earth, I fear the damage humankind has done has gone too far now. You cant turn a blind eye though, the damage, i want to see all of it.
