Denial and 'in Denial' Police and investigators usually don't need admissions from an accused to take action on a case, the accused is usually given the opportunity to reply to the allegations as a matter of courtesy. Frequently the response of the accused are something that the investigator can predict, especially experienced investigators. Most of the time I spent in that realm was interviewing people who knew 'the jig was up', some were repentant, some were silent, but the one that annoyed me was the accused that was in denial. They'd go to their death demanding that they only did "what anyone else would do", or that they were "being railroaded", or worse that what they did "was not wrong/illegal". As an investigator who had full knowledge of the 'brief of evidence' that was particularly frustrating, not that it made any difference, but it was sure to cause complications later on for the accused and the victims.

Julia falls down the Rabbit Hole - "Oh Mr Abbott, wait! please! " Portion of the redacted (now released) section of Julia Gillard's exit interview at Slater and Gordon and my thoughts: Reproduced (in part) from  http://www.michaelsmithnews.com/2012/11/a-direct-result-of-bruce-wilsons-730-interview-thanks-again-bruce.html PG : Do you recall whether when it was necessary to argue the case with the, with the relevant Western Australian authority, whether you consulted anyone else in the firm as to what would or would not get, become acceptable or appropriate? JG : I once again don't recall talking to anybody else in the firm about it. PG : Beyond that, and it seems from the file -(#1)  that after that letter it was successfully accepted as an incorporated association and duly was created and presumably accounts were set up . I should ask did we have anything to do with the setting up of the accounts-(#2) or was that done by the officers of the incorporated...

What a lightweight performance by the ABC.

Despite the comfortable setting, Wilson on the ABC 7:30 Report last night still looked uncomfortable. He started off not remembering much and looking more like a simpleton than a criminal mastermind. He couldn't remember causing $5,000 to be deposited in his girlfriends' bank account, but he could specifically remember the reason why Gillard’s handwriting was on the application to incorporate the AWUWRA Association "She filled out on the, on the...

Reproduced directly from www.michaelsmithnews.com (could only see half of it and Crikey wanted me to join to view it at their blog). I'm sitting on the bed in Michael Smith's Melbourne hotel room and he has a question for me: "Do you feel dirty?" Do I feel "tainted", he wants to know, by venturing into "misogynist grubby nut-job headquarters"? Smith is the former talkback host who lost his job at Sydney radio station 2UE last year for trying to pursue a 16-year-old story about a union fraud committed by Julia Gillard's former boyfriend. Since then, the shock jock in exile has continued to play a pivotal -- if almost totally unacknowledged -- role in the resurrection of the story. And he's done it armed with nothing more than an iPhone, an internet connection, a ring binder bulging with documents and a conviction he's onto one of the greatest scandals in Australian political history. I'd assumed our interview, arranged ...

How blasé of  Julia Gillard yesterday to blow off $5000 allegedly deposited into her bank account from Bruce Wilson. "Now I do not have a memory of this money going into my account. However, it is a long time ago. And so I have taken steps to try and check. I specifically made inquiries of the Commonwealth Bank, the Commonwealth Bank was mentioned in the report, I did have a Commonwealth Bank account at the time. They have advised me it is not possible to get records from 17 years ago." Let's not forget how much $5000 was in 1995. You could buy a reasonable used car for $2000, or a tidy little home for just over $100,000. A new car was $10,000 to $15,000. A new '486' computer was about $1500-$2000 depending on if you wanted a color CRT monitor with it. If someone gave me $5000 in 1995 I'd definitely remember it. If you were earning $40,000 a year in 1995 you were doing really well, so $5000 ( TAX FREE?!?!) in 1995 was an awesome amount. So she can'...

Ralph Blewitt is the 'whistle blower' that has the Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard very worried. Here he is interviewed on the ABC 7:30 Report. Calm, confident and concise is how I would describe his performance. I have spent many hours over a 20+ year career as a police officer sitting opposite crooks while they recounted their stories, and have learned to look for the little indicators that hint at when they are trying to deceive an investigator. None of those tell-tail signs were present during the Ralph Blewitt/7:30 Report interview. Now compare that with the response of the Australian Prime Minister during her press conference ( here ). She is evasive, some times her voice sounds quite stressed, she is constantly looking around the room (you can almost tell when she is looking at one of her cronies, the rest of the time she fails to 'engage' the interviewer by looking at them), her lips are frequently thin lines as she holds back something (I'm guessi...

Synopsis: Israeli spy satellites have spotted an Iranian ship being loaded with missiles that analysts say may be headed for Gaza, The Sunday Times reported. According to the report, the cargo may include Fajr-5 rockets, like those that were fired by Hamas toward Israel and the stockpiles of which the Israel Defense Forces depleted during the recent round of fighting across the Gaza border, in addition to Shahab-3 ballistic missiles, which could be stationed in Sudan to pose a direct threat to Israel. The shipment was reportedly prepared last week, at the same time as Israel and Hamas agreed to a cease-fire that would end the eight-day long Operation Pillar of Defense. On Saturday, Reuters reported that senior Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar said Hamas would continue to arm itself with the help of Iran, though the truce signed in Cairo calls for a cessation of rocket fire at Israel, which Israel gave as its reason for launching its attacks in mid-November. "We have no cho...

(Reproduced directly from MichaelSmithNews ) Something that should concern every Australian. Ralph Blewitt's RAR mates from Afghanistan being investigated for calling in support In a democracy, the glare of publicity is often the best way to protect our freedoms. There is nothing wrong with making a phone call to support a mate. During the week, Ralph Blewitt received just such a phone call from serving members of the RAR brotherhood who are currently deployed overseas. I've been corresponding with a US serviceman who has contacts in Australia.   Here's his very disquieting note today Remember 1812  said:                                                          ...

Bruce Wilson cannot now, nor ever, help to prove Julia Gillard's innocence  he can however help with a smokescreen (what has occurred today) or in proving her guilt. Gillard, who has used a plethora of meaningless statements in her own defense still has serious questions to answer. Just so you know what a meaningless statement is, here are some and why they are meaningless: "I was young and naive" - Is a statement that carries no information in response to a question. "I / She did nothing wrong" - Is a generalisation that avoids answering a question. "These matters have already been dealt with" - Is a statement that is only effective if accurate , clearly in this case it is not. Besides, his statement sounds (to me) like it's from the same script writer that has been telling her what to say, don't you think?

Last night I left the TV on, and woke up to turn it off but couldn't. There was a program on the ABC that I just had to watch. GeoEngineering . As if the lies they're telling us about CO2 causing Global Warming isn't enough, now there's GeoEngineering. It all sounds good until you think about what their intention is - CHANGING our planets' ecosystem TO WHAT THEY THINK IT SHOULD BE!!! Source: http://www.abc.net.au/catalyst/stories/2856300.htm

HeyTell, Like having a walky-talky where ever you are! Text Messaging is about to become a thing of the past. I've just added HeyTell to my phone (available for iPhone, iPad, Android, and Windows Phone and it's for free! Just tested it with a mate, and found that using the Facebook account works best, it's just like having a walky-talky that has no limit to range.

Pizza Dough Ingredients: (Makes 5-6 Large Pizzas) 3 teaspoons or 15grams of dry yeast 1 tablespoon(ish) brown sugar 650 ml lukewarm water (should feel "neutral" to touch) 4 tablespoons olive oil 1 kilo of 00 Flour 1 tablespoon sea salt (ground) Extra flour Beer/s Method: 1. Open the beer and test to make sure it's cold and frothy. 1. a) Mix the yeast and the sugar in a bowl and then add the water. Stir briefly until the yeast and sugar are dissolved. 2. Check beer again, if it becomes warm or empty replace with another beer. 2. a) Let the yeast/sugar mix stand for 10 minutes (should go frothy on top, don't get it mixed up with the beer, they don't taste the same). 3. If you're a purist you can sift the Flour and Salt into a large bowl, or if you're like me chuck it all in and stir it up so that any 'clumps' are completely broken down, and the salt is throughout the mixture. Make sure you leave a "well" in the middle of...

"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to complacency; From complacency to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage....

I ron Dome (Hebrew: כיפת ברזל‎) is a mobile air defense system in development by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems designed to intercept short-range rockets and artillery shells. The system was created as a defensive countermeasure to the rocket threat against Israel's civilian population on its northern and southern borders. It is designed to intercept very short-range threats up to 70 kilometers in all-weather situations. It was declared operational and initially deployed on March 27, 2011 near Beersheba. On April 7, 2011, the system successfully intercepted a Grad rocket launched from Gaza for the first time. via Wikipedia

Text from this Video: “For the Palestinian people, death has become an industry, at which women excel, and so do all the people living on this land. The elderly excel at this, and so do the mujahideen and the children. This is why they have formed human shields of the women, the children, the elderly, and the mujahideen, in order to challenge the Zionist bombing machine. It is as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy: ‘We desire death like you desire life.’” More about the Current Conflict here: http://frontpagemag.com/2012/arnold-ahlert/another-palestinian-fraud-exposed/ All of this nonsense reflects an ugly double-standard. Not once has the so-called international community ever condemned Hamas for regularly firing rockets into Israel over the span of eight years. Among the global elites, it is apparently taken as a matter of course that Israelis must live under constant threat of bombardments that have been responsible for 30 deaths, 1500 injuries, and hundreds of thousan...

Surprise surprise! Another honest ex-Government man.

Just how much of the "Greenhouse Effect" is caused by human activity? It is about 0.28%, if water vapor is taken into account-- about 5.53%, if not. This point is so crucial to the debate over global warming that how water vapor is or isn't factored into an analysis of Earth's greenhouse gases makes the difference between describing a significant human contribution to the greenhouse effect, or a negligible one. Synopsis Water vapor, responsible for 95% of Earth's greenhouse effect, is 99.999% natural (some argue, 100%). Even if we wanted to we can do nothing to change this. Anthropogenic (man-made) CO2 contributions cause only about 0.117% of Earth's greenhouse effect , (factoring in water vapor). This is insignificant! Adding up all anthropogenic greenhouse sources, the total human contribution to the greenhouse effect is around 0.28% (factoring in water vapor).

You know what I see here? Smiles on both sides of the table, a government and opposition engaged in debate. None of them turn their back while the other side is talking to them. Paul Keating was a great speaker, I liked his openning remark (puts a smile on your face)...

That makes a total of Four official records that have gone missing in relation to this:" Harry Nowicki. THE federal opposition has called for an urgent investigation after the disappearance of more documents at the centre of the Australian Workers Union slush fund scandal, including key Federal Court files. Deputy Opposition Leader Julie Bishop has urged police intervention unless Queensland court records relating to a bid in the mid-1990s to recover money from the disgraced former boyfriend of Prime Minister Julia Gillard and his associates are quickly found. And former industrial lawyer Harry Nowicki has told The Age a box of records is also missing from the New South Wales Federal Court registry, including a crucial affidavit and supporting documents assembled by AWU whistleblower and now Fair Work Australia commissioner Ian Cambridge. Mr Nowicki said the NSW documents, which could not be located by court staff when he visited Sydney in September, were also...

Barnett weighs into union saga - The West Australian : "Paperwork for the creation of an association allegedly used to plunder funds, filed with the WA Commissioner for Corporate Affairs in 1992, should be contained in a State Records Office file, but is reportedly missing. The AWU Workplace Reform Association's constitution said it was dedicated to workplace safety but in a 1995 interview with her law firm Slater & Gordon, conducted not long before she left the firm, Ms Gillard described it as a "slush fund" for union officials."

Michael Smith News : Michael Smith is an ex-cop, journalist, radio presenter who, when he was about to air a story about the Australian PM juLIAR Gillard, had the show cancelled. His website is full of his investigation into the "AWU Scandal" which implicates the Australian PM in some serious allegation which she will not answer. Plenty of document about the story on this site, well worth spending time to acquaint yourself with. 'via Blog this'
