Sydney Morning Herald What does an ex-soldier’s war crime charge mean for whistleblowers? Story by Amber Schultz • Sunday

Quote:McBride is facing a jury trial over the leaking of a cache of documents to the ABC shortly after his discharge from the ADF, which formed the basis of its 2017 “Afghan Files” investigation. The subsequent Brereton Report found credible evidence of war crimes committed by Australian special forces, with 39 murders, executions and allegations of torture.

McBride faces five charges relating to the unauthorised disclosure of information, theft of Commonwealth property and breaching the Defence Act, and could face up to 50 years in prison.

Quote:McBride was forced to drop his application for protection under whistleblower laws after the government moved to quash the testimony of two of his key experts on public-interest immunity laws.

Quote:McBride’s lawyer Mark Davis also said he saw no joy in seeing Schulz arrested.

“What occurred in Afghanistan was a result of the deliberate policy of commanders and the Canberra military bureaucracy to be blind to the actions of their soldiers in the field. It was an unparalleled dereliction of duty or avoidance of responsibility,” he said.

“[Schulz and McBride] are both facing prison. Where are the ministers facing prison [and] where are the generals facing prison? Both McBride and this man could feel that the responsibilities should lay at their feet.”

Quote:Father, into your hands I commend my spirit
Father, into your hands
Why have you forsaken me?
In your eyes forsaken me
In your thoughts forsaken me
In your heart forsaken me, oh
Trust in my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die

She lived the life of a Princess with her every care and want supplied in full.

Personal Disclosure: She has been off both her food and drink and she has lost some control of her back legs and has since become immobile during the past few days now and tonight looks like it just might be her time to pass over!

She had and excellent run at life and I am glad to have known her and taken care of her.

I ask for your prayers for her new journey ok.

This is from 60 Minutes Australia and is speaking to a new life extension pill that is in clinical trials according to the video.. It worked in mice so there is expectation that it will work for humans; thus the human clinical trails. The inventor sold the company for big bucks and the research continues.

As long as life is good then I can see wanting to live longer, however there are those who are everyday offing themselves for whatever reason so the pill ain't for everyone...

All the talk about plants has got me antsy.
So, even though it is too early in my area to get them in the ground, I'm starting the 2023 gardening thread!

I started a bunch of seeds this year for my garden.  Many years, I just go buy the plants from our local gardening store, but I wanted to get in the habit of seed harvesting and starting.

On 3/20, I used Rapid rooter plugs from Amazon, as I have way better luck with these, then the little plugs in the mini greenhouse set up you can buy everywhere.
I put these in Styrofoam egg cartons.  I put the seeds in the little holes, water them really well, close them and put them on a seed heating pad and cover them with a towel.

Some plants, like tomatoes and kale, started within 2 days.  Pumpkins take 3.  
Generally, by the third day, I left them all open on the mats.
When the seedling gets big enough to see root through the plug, I put them in bigger containers.  I save all the ones from previous years.  
The veggies go into square ones, about 3x3 inches and my herbs/flower went into the 3 pack ones like plants come from at the nursery.  Thats all I had.
I have 2 square grow lights, about 12 x 12 and a new one that is just flexable arm lights I found this year, that are thin.
They all seem to be working well, I have the square ones hanging so I can adjust the height on them.  
It won't be until about mid may, before I can get them into the ground, as I am in MI, zone 5, and we have to worry about frost.
I wanted to post a pic, but my phone and email are not cooperating, as usual.

We also have Blueberry's, raspberry's, strawberry's and asparagus to put in, which I can do a little earlier, maybe this weekend.
We already have everything but the blueberry's, but we wanted to get bigger crops, and the asparagus just shows up wild, wherever it wants, so we want to put in an actual patch.  Easier to find I'm hoping.

I'm hoping people will join in this thread, with their own garden info this year, and with tips and tricks.  There is always so much to learn!
I also try to keep a journal, so I know how much I was able to harvest and can up the previous year.  Also good information like, 1 heaping 5 gal. pail of tomatoes gave me 10 quarts of juice.
On that note,
I've been fighting blight for years, so this year I am actually going to try copper sulfate fungicide this year.  I hoping if It works, I can get enough tomatoes that I can skip planting them this year.
I do that with corn and peas.  Last year, even though it was a bad year for corn, I got 63 pints, so I won't be growing it this year, it'll be peas.

I am also extending my herb garden, with more medicinal herbs this year as well.  Starting with the mullien, all heal, more yarrow, echinacea and some evening primrose.
I will be trying to keep up with this thread all season.

It's one of the many Shuttle UFO videos captured by Martyn Stubbs from NASA's feeds but of all of his videos STS 114 still has me scratching my head after all these years , I know many here will have seen it before but to my knowledge nobody , not even Jim Oberg , has a definitive answer to how an object can do a U-turn in space.

STS 114 launched in 2005 and the camera is looking toward the Earth.


Many Shuttle UFO's can be put down to thrusters effecting ice crystals that hang around the Shuttle and much of the time I agree with that but in my humble opinion 114 aint no ice crystal , so could it be the best evidence of a genuine UFO , or has someone shown it to be something more prosaic ?

So, I just heard about this, Saturday, and it sure seems like a new way to puppy mill dogs.

So, you want a designer dog, in this case, an Australian doodle.
You get one from a new breeder.
But, there is a catch:
If your getting a female, in this case you pay 1000.00.
You DO NOT own the dog yet.
You have to let said breeder breed the female for 4 litters.
You do not get any of the puppies.
THEN you own the dog.
If you do not agree, you have to give the dog back, but you don't get your money.
(Be sure to read any small print in the contract!)

What kind of crap is that?  Sounds like you are puppy milling the dog for the breeder to me.

Please let people know this is going on.  A friend's sister just got caught up in this.
Personally, no matter the sex of the dog we end up with, we always get them fixed.  And many legitimate breeders ask this of you.  (Hubby loves Boxers, so we have dealt with a few)
I didn't ask about who's responsibility it is, for the puppy healthcare, but I wish I would have.

Don't support designer dogs, or this nonsense!

Makes you wonder ?

As many of us not doubt know there is allot of fake news about the war. Everything from Rah Rah Ukraine is winning to they will be defeated in the next few days; somewhere in between there is the truth. We can post videos or articles we find interesting and let those who see or read them make their own decisions.

Russian is such an ugly language IMO.. Like a Russian friend of mine once said, "No one can speak proper Russian unless you grew up in Russia!"
