Okay ... here is some more interesting history on that . There is special magic stuff in that area . Some indigenous elders where VERY upset about that area being logged due to certain 'mythological stories ' An 'energy' there got out of control so a 'clever man' came to dispel it but it was fiercer than realised. A terrific battle ensued and the bad force was cut into pieces and buried separately in special places and 'sealed' in . The concern was that the 'sealing in; might be disturbed and the pieces join and the 'force' come back . Sound familiar ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_(cosmogony)#Chaoskampf So, our magical group which was active then, decided to support the action. Some of us, and others associated with us also decided on some 'personal' action . One of them volunteered himself for the most radical of actions . A deep hole was dug and concrete poured in, steel reo at the bottom with a chain coming up and then more concrete. Guy gets in the hole and locks on to chain around his ankle and crouches down. Then they towed someone's old donated car over the hole (so the car made a road block - various tricks like this had been done before, without a person but they just bulldozed the obstacle away ), removed the wheels and ran chains and cable locks around the cars axles and around the guys neck . That stopped them from pushing it out the way with a bulldozer ! It took a very long time for police rescue to clear the road block . Meanwhile others where setting up the next line of defence further in. They had flogged some large stored under road water drainage pipes and had dug them in standing up . This is the part I have written about here elsewhere ; so we painted magical sigils on them, signs of repelling and other stuff . I did the main one in the middle of the road with others did ghoul faces, rearing snakes spitting fire, all sorts of shit. Apparently when the bulldozer driver turned up he freaked out and said he put up with all sorts of crap, sabotage, piss bombs, but he wasnt going to put up with this crap ! And left ! Fuck ! I thought he would have just trashed it ! . Then the action moved to another front that they where trying to get in on . So a a very fast barricade was made after a trail of obstacles and a bunch of us stood on and blocked the road . A bit disconcerting to see the long line of logging jiggers and vehicles heading towards us from the distance. But then I looked the other way and a few curves away, I saw a police van coming with blue light flashing ... then another... and another ... and different types of vehicles, including big prisoner transport vans ... 38 I think I counted . There was a bit of a stand off, catcalling and stuff, they usual silly songs ' We shall not be moved' that made the police smirk and nudge each other . The loggers and police started removing the barricades. After a bit of to and fro it was "Off the road or we arrest you ! " Mumble mumble everyone moves off the road, but this huge guy says 'Fuck this' and walks forward ( I had talked to him early, he was a Vietnam veteran and he told me he was 'going to put himself on the line' ) and lays down in front of the first logging truck spread eagled. The boss cop gives the orders to arrest him and about 6 cops rush out and grab him. he is complaint and walks with them to the van , two on each side holding his arms . We cheered him and instinctively he half turned grinned and waved his arm at us , lifting two surprised police officers into the air they quickly got control and he apologetically complied . Locked him in the big van . Then they signalled , the logging trucks to move forward a few more ran out and lay on the road . Hmmmm ... that gives me an idea so I said to some near me " Dont all go out on to the road at once, take turns , it takes longer to arrest and lock up individuals and small groups than it does everyone at once ." So thats what happened ... it took ages and really frustrated the opposing team . But we started running out of people. So I zoomed back to camp and put ut the alarm but only 1 guy came back with me . The trucks where just moving off and everyone had been arrested so other guy lay on the road ..... delayed . Put him in the van. A cop looked at me and goes 'Do I have to arrest you too ! " I moved further back off the road . "Oh no Officer, I am not going to do anything that stupid . " The tell the trucks to move forward, they start up their engines ., well, every single other person had been arrested and in the 2 huge moving vans (one for men one for women ) , what was I gonnna do stay there in the bush by myself with loggers ? So I slipped around the cop between me and the road and went and lay under the front truck while it was moving forwards . Stopped again , cop furious, drag me away to the van ... amongst much cheering and laughing and catcalls from the van grill windows . THats when they took us (just the men's van ) to their secret police camp in the bush for their secret and illegal attempted nastiness ( I saw attempted as it was silly and juvenile and had little effect on most of us , me and the guy next to me used the time sit there in lotus meditating with peacefull happy looks on our faces - that really annoyed them ... but, by then they where pretty drunk anyway . I know that as they parked the metal van in the full sun in summer and refused to give us water and sat around it drinking beer and saying how nice and cold it was .... then did drunken do-nut burnouts in their police cars around the van to kick up the dust and choke us inside . - that took up most of the day, so they' called it a day' and went home ready to start in the morning now we where all out of the way , but it was that afternoon that the legislation stopping the operation was passed in parliament. So they where officially stopped the next day . Just in time ! That was followed by the Wild Cattle Creek action ..... that time, there was no police intervention between us (the protestors) and the loggers , they let us fight for a bit . .... and some of those chaps got the silly idea into their head that they where going to beat up on me . Oh dear ! ... the silly fellows

Last time, down the east coast. This time up the west coast ( a bit - its HUGE! ) . I hopped a plane to Perth and rented a campervan , drove north through suburbia along the coast ... all new shiny clean and very affluent ! Its been over 30 years since I was here, grown heaps ! The freeway was magnificent, along the road side a HUGE collection of all different wildflowers blooming together . And then, it stops , a few Km of what is to be developed, then isolation - 'desolation' ( for a rainforest dweller ) . But then you get out to where there are more wildflowers Its an unusual combination ..... desolate scrub sprinkled with flowers. Then , heaps of grass trees ... never seen so many Stopped at Cervantes .... they have a hge sculpture of Don Juan and sidekick, all the streets are named after Spanish towns . ? Lovely girl at caravan park with lovely Spanish accent takes my fee and I ask ' Cervantes" ? She explained an American ship called Cervantes was wrecked nearby and town named after it . Me : But your accent ?" " I am from Barcelona ... but thats just a coincidence . " Cervantes ; Weird nearby salt water lake ( I think its an ancient crater ) "Stromies' : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stromatolite And a bit more inland , amazing sand hills , pure white sand and a bit further https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pinnacles_(Western_Australia) Time to sort out the mess I made in this camper last night ... still working out how to manage it all .... and continue north . This place didnt exist before 1960 something .... now its a small crayfish port . I notice the outer reef here is just starting to develop, further north ( my next stop ) the 'Coral Coast begins . Gtta look up a guy there I got a contact with that has a cray boat .

Yeah , I checked the fire alerts too and couldnt find anything about that fire . 15 km away is a little close . Let's hope the wind is in a good direction for you . I have spent a bit of time in Chaelundi , years back, doing a bit of hard core forestry protests, camping out, being arrested and dragged off to Grafton Jail (after some mild 'torture' out in the middle of the forest at a police camp ) . Unfortunately , there is no rain predicted , even in the long term.

A couple of times I have seen beggars do it for 'busking' . A guy is slumped sitting against the wall nodding off, just out from him on the ground is his phone playing music and out from that a paper cup with some spare change in it . - I dont suppose you would be giving him money for his 'contribution' ? - some people might ask how someone so 'poor' ( or destitute or out of it ) can have a phone like that ...... but " Six of the world's seven billion people have mobile phones - but only 4.5 billion have a toilet, according to a U.N. report.

This fire is still going , burnt out over 104906 ha. I got detoured by it yesterday . " An outbreak of bush fires in Australia just days after winter officially ended is stoking fears that the world’s driest-inhabited continent faces a disastrous summer ... More than 130 fires have destroyed homes and threatened lives in Queensland and New South Wales states in an alarmingly early start to the nation’s bush fire season ... Greens and independent lawmakers plan to band together in parliament Wednesday to demand the government “declare an environment and climate emergency and to take urgent action consistent with internationally accepted science. "We are facing an existential climate crisis that threatens life as we know it,” the group said in a statement. “With record drought and Australia ablaze barely a week out of winter, it is time to tell the truth about how severe the climate emergency is.” ... " Top government bureaucrats, including officials from the defence and energy departments, have war-gamed “national-scale systemic climate risks” facing the nation and warned that they are already “overwhelming” https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-09-11/wildfires-spark-call-for-climate-emergency-action-in-australia Worldwide more people are getting concerned and protesting for action and more people are getting annoyed at their 'unfair protests ' . What a fuckin mess . And they say 'Kids should not be protesting' ... https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2019/oct/09/queensland-to-fast-track-laws-to-crack-down-on-climate-protesters

What a nice , remote, natural and calm place Yueya has . We went for a little walk on part of his property, down to the river there ( which is large and has a bigger flow than the river I live on ), through parts of the river front he has done vegetation regeneration on. Very nice ... not a sign of civilisation or anything but nature there . Went for a swim and got charged up by the waters energy. Drove on ... and on ... towards home but got stopped by a bushfire on both sides of the road , fire trucks, a helicopter water bomber landing on the road ... chaos . Probably a 2 - 3 hour wait , at least . Now way around it out there, at that position, the only way over to the east is blocked, except by going through connection of forest roads that might lead back into the fire zone anyway .... and we where near down wind from it . So all the way back to the turn off to Yueyaville and keep going north to the next main route back south and then down the mountains to Coffs Harbour , then back south and then west to home . And that fire was an extension flare up of the one I posted about here in 'Inferno' on Sept 11th ..... its still going and has burnt out over 104906 ha !

' News ' .... yeah right . 'The Lock Ness Monster might be a giant eel '. .... scientists say . Why ? Well, they found eel DNA in Lock Ness . They even say : ' "Eels are very plentiful in the loch system — every single sampling site that we went to pretty much had eels," WOW ! Who would have thought ? A lock with lots of eels in it ... but they didnt find any 'dinosaur DNA' . I wonder who pays for this type of 'research' ? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-09-06/loch-ness-monster-might-just-be-a-giant-eel-say-scientists/11483998

Sumer: the "black-headed" vs. the "red-faced"
Nungali replied to Taomeow's topic in General Discussion
In the link I gave above https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780873655453 Hiebert cites the south Central Asian oasis complex as originating in the far eastern ( present day Iranian ) foothills going into the Kopet Dag ( 'dry irrigation supplemented by hunting and gathering out in the oasis alluvial fans ( 'thickets', 'wilderness' , 'wetlands ) . As their numbers increased and the dry agriculture method could not keep up with their increase, they started clearing the oasis and developing a different type of irrigated agriculture . Then things really 'took off' . Here, it appears, that people didnt develop irrigation and then that allowed them to increase population - population increased and they developed irrigation to be able to feed more people . Regarding 'aggression' and oppressing others in some societies : Maybe people 'living in close proximity' ( and having to dig out those damn canals constantly ) made people grumpy ? I know it makes me grumpy .... not enough to go oppress the neighbours though . . -

Another thing I think we need to look at, as well as agriculture is animal domestication. Peoples that had 'simple' , proto-farming or 'dry agriculture' seemed to have more egalitarian cultures. But people that used irrigation and domesticated animals, less so. I cant see how irrigation could change human consciousness away from an egalitarian framework , but animal domestication could . There are two types basically ; the 'companion or household animal ' (like the dog or cat ) and the 'working animal' . I think that the 2nd type has a lot to do with the development of slavery- the antithesis of egalitarian . The harnessing of animals to do the work of humans is similar to slavery, and as I have noted before, perhaps some 'bright spark' in the past observed; ' If I can get an animal to do that .... why not another human ? ' The process is the same ; capture, 'hobbling' , training and forcing to work under the whip for the bare exchange of basic food and shelter (to keep your 'investment ' alive) . For example, the Australian Aboriginal had proto / dry 'farming' ( some basic 'irrigation' , mostly for eel aquaculture ) but no domestic work animals (they had dingos and pelicans for pets , but no 'slave' animals ) and never developed a sacrificial culture or slavery. So that dynamic, along with the abilities that allowed raid and run ( mostly horse riding and chariots ) basically led some people to develop a system of being 'over' others . Even the original 'Caste ' system ( Varna) was based on profession or work and was not hierarchical , it wasnt until much later that the other caste system ( 'Jati' ) based on ethnic division of clan and tribe that notions of superiority / inferiority entered into it . Agriculture and animal domestication have made some serious impacts on the human condition http://discovermagazine.com/1987/may/02-the-worst-mistake-in-the-history-of-the-human-race -

Probably . But I was talking about Zoroastrians and 'proto-Zoroastrian' culture not Indo - Europeans . Certainly . That is if you mean Andronovo culture and Zoroastrian culture, they are different cultures and have different origins. It is the origin of early Kazakhstan culture and Andronovo culture .... if that is what you mean by 'that civilisation' . Kazakhstan is not the origin of BMAC culture. BMAC is a recently discovered 'lost civilisation' ; http://discovermagazine.com/2006/nov/ancient-towns-excavated-turkmenistan What 'this area' ? The BMAC area ? They do mention the BMAC area , but they dont have the same names we do now, of course. There is a wealth of material about the 'old rivers' that proponents of an IE incursion into NW India cite .... and there is a wealth of the opposite , claiming those rivers are in India ( see the 'Out of India Theory, {they claim India is the origin of IE} - sponsored by the Indian Nationalist Party) . .

..... yep ..... hippies ....... I knew it ! - I have one of those too dude ! ; By unveiling, we reflect. The goal of a resonance cascade is to plant the seeds of grace rather than bondage. Beauty requires exploration. We must bless ourselves and empower others. The world is electrified with bio-electricity. This life is nothing short of an evolving fusion of high-frequency karma. Today, science tells us that the essence of nature is choice. Our conversations with other adventurers have led to a redefining of pseudo-karmic consciousness. Throughout history, humans have been interacting with the universe via frequencies. Who are we? Where on the great story will we be aligned? To engage with the journey is to become one with it. We exist as bio-electricity. Nothing is impossible. The quantum matrix is approaching a tipping point. Manna is a constant. Potentiality is the knowledge of knowledge, and of us. Consciousness consists of electrical impulses of quantum energy. “Quantum” means a maturing of the enlightened. https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/ -
