Boat people

I was born a Dutchman in Meppel This is not unusual in its self. My mum was born in Australia and married my dad and went to Holland. After the war there was not much left in buildings and food so the decision was made to come to Australia from a war torn country. We hopped on a boat called the William-rouse and off we went. I have been naturalized and have papers that say I am Australian. This happened in 1951 it is now 2012 and things have moved on. Mum and dad are gone and I have children who have grown up.
Now as mum was born in Australia it is now known that one of the relatives on mums side jumped the fence with black fellow. You know black on white or white on black not sure which if you get the drift. That means I am a black fellow if you like. Bought up in my bush setting and loved it. Now it has come to light that this means in short that I am:-
the only refugee aboriginal whom escaped a war torn country as a refuge fleeing to Australia in a boat and claiming citizenship not much unlike the modern day boat people.
Yes I am a Australian aboriginal elder boat people refugee. Cool isn't it.

Read the Blog about Gillard that got Larry Pickering’s Facebook Page Suspended

Facebook suspended Larry’s page for three days due to complaints about the following blog post he wrote on 13 June. To ensure his post isn’t censored, I have reproduced it in full below.
If it’s now ok for Labor MPs to dig for dirt on Liberals, then Gillard and Labor shouldn’t cry foul about opinion pieces like Larry’s.
Quote
Julia in Deeper Shit than Craig
Thomson is involved in rorting $500,000 from the HSU.
Gillard is involved in rorting $1 million from the AWU.
To date, no attempt has been made by either union to recover one cent.
As a backbencher, Thomson had no clout with media.
As Prime Minister, Gillard used her clout to kill the story... and this is how she did it:
Bruce Wilson was an AWU heavy and Gillard’s boyfriend at the time. He had been threatening developers in a thinly disguised, mob-style protection racket: Industrial peace for payment... up to $50,000 at a time.
The payments went straight to accounts Gillard had arranged while she was still working for the Left wing law firm, Slater & Gordon.
Gillard was into the scam up to her elbows and, as she was screwing Wilson at the time, pillow talk wasn’t confined to her other sexual exploits including married father, and current, Trade Minister Craig Emerson and now Gold Coast spiv Tim Mathieson who departed the Coast leaving multiple unpaid debts.
Her part in the scam was rewarded with $50,000 of renovations to her house and a $25,000 account at a top fashion house (although one could be forgiven for thinking she never used it.)
The story broke and Gillard went into frenzied damage control.
When the dust settled, Gillard was still PM but ground-breaking journalists were sacked, News Ltd CEO, John Hartigan, resigned. Both Fairfax and News Ltd immediately spiked the story and pulled broadcasts, Andrew Bolt threatened to resign, Laurie Oakes was told, “Don’t even think about it!” Blogs disappeared in a cloud of dust. Radio jocks were instructed to drop it.
ABC and ‘The Australian’ journalist, Glenn Milne, had spent months carefully documenting Gillard’s devastating involvement. His story had been legalled and it ran in ‘The Australian’ on Monday, August 1st 2011. It was immediately pulled after one phone call from Gillard.
Slavish supporter of Gillard, the ABC, promptly sacked Milne.
Gillard continued a barrage of phone calls to the then CEO of News Ltd, John Hartigan and there was a meeting arranged at the offices of News Ltd. What exactly was said at that meeting may never be known but it certainly didn’t resemble what Gillard said it was about.
The Leveson Hacking Inquiry was threatening to engulf Australia’s media and Gillard saw her opportunity. She used Bob Brown as a verbal battering ram to threaten Fairfax and Murdoch with an “inquiry”. Gillard herself publicly entered the fray with her now famous utterance: “There are questions that need to be answered.” That statement was carefully crafted to put the fear of God into the media. After much questioning she has refused to say what those questions might be.
A Leveson-style inquiry here would mutilate the very core of Australia’s media and their executives as it has, and is still doing, in the UK.
Fairfax and Murdoch executives, to put it bluntly, were shitting themselves. Their indecent grappling for a piece of an ever-decreasing circulation market-share would have opened an ugly can of worms. A can I will let sit for another time.
So, this squalid deal was done but the sordid tale still bubbles below the surface. It reaches to the very heart of the Labor movement. We are witnessing only the tip of unions’ mob-like protection rackets and their corrupt manipulation of our Parliaments.
This shameful story will eventually be told in full colour. It will be a long and agonising read.
But, in the interim, today’s fetid political power holds sway.

Rape in hospital wards in Australia

I speak to many people about issues with mental health and there treatment and it is common knowledge. People are asking me questions about various issues.
At the boat ramp I was approached by a man who told me his daughter was admitted to a mental ward and three years later had a baby all the time being in the care of the hospital.
Then some minutes ago I was told of an elderly patient being raped in a nursing home. The way these institutions do business has to change. The denial has to stop and whistle blowers have to come forward.
I will personally blow the whistle here. These emails were the result of a magistrate abusing his powers to bully and incarcerate a member of the public. The result is these emails. What chances does one have if one were unable to defend ones self against these bullies if one is medicated sorry drugged to the hilt as was the case here. I also wonder if the Mr Thompson is related to the federal politician of the same name?


Judicial Commission judcom@judcom.nsw.gov.au

to me
Dear Mr. Strik,

I refer to our recent telephone discussion concerning the complaint you made to the Commission about former Magistrate Thompson of the Local Court.

As I explained during our conversation, the Judicial Commission, in accordance with the provisions of the Judicial Officers Act, can examine complaints about the ability or behaviour of a judicial officer (a judge or magistrate). However before it can commence an examination of a complaint it must have the complaint in proper form, that is, the complaint must be in writing and the particulars of the complaint must be verified by a statutory declaration.

As you are aware, the original complaint form you lodged with the Commission was not in proper form because your signature was not witnessed by a Justice of the Peace. You were requested to re-submit the form properly executed, which you did. When the Commission received your complaint  it commenced its preliminary examination, which included confirming that the person complained about held office as a judicial officer. The Commission was advised that Mr. Thompson had retired as a magistrate.

The Judicial Officers Act requires that if a person ceases to hold office as a judicial officer the Commission must cease dealing with the complaint. This is what happened in relation to your matter. You were advised accordingly of this action.

Although I understand that in the circumstances you may wish that something further could be done about your concerns the legislation requires the Commission to cease dealing with the matter and there is nothing further it can do to assist you.

Yours faithfully,

E.J. Schmatt
Chief Executive
Judicial Commission of NSW

Dear Mr Schmatt,

I will copy correspondence of before:-

As a result of your high position you are required to treat people with dignity and respect especially when these people are the ones paying your wages through our taxation system.

Although Mr Thompson was acting in a judicial capacity, he also needs to remain accountable to the people who placed him in this position.

The initial complaint was lodged on the 30th May 2008. This was 30 days before Mr Thompson's retirement. I then per your wishes re-declared the complaint via statutory declaration on the 19th June at Gundagai. Mr Thompson did not retire for 30 days before the initial complaint was lodged. The complaint was then re lodged in an unchanged format leaving 11 days where an investigation could have continued from the earlier pre-investigation stage on the 30th May 2008.

I'm not entirely sure of the retirement procedures of the judiciary, but I can imagine, that many people know well in advance of such events taking place. As a result of this there would be a requirement on your part to act without delay from the initial complaint.

Essentially, Mr Thompson was a magistrate at the time of the complaint. The response that I initially received from your office was one of apathy and nonchalance. If this is sincerely 'all that you can do', then maybe we need to launch some law reform to add some accountability to those in the judiciary and those that monitor those in the judiciary.

I have dealt with people like you before and they can get away with outright lies in the district court in Wollongong and the local court also in Wollongong. They use their power to control people and intimidate, they get away with what they like,and are unaccountable for there actions and are the first to complain when it doesn't go their way. If you cant stand the heat get out of the job or do what you are there to do..investigate and inform me of weather i was right or wrong which you did not do.

Yours Truly,
Stewart Strik


Dear Mr. Strik,

Your interpretation of what I said in my letter of 1 July 2008 is incorrect.

What I said in that letter was that as Mr. Thompson is no longer a
judicial officer, in his case a magistrate, the Commission has no
power under the Judicial Officers Act to investigate your complaint.
If he had remained a judicial officer the complaint would have been
examined, but as he is not the Commission has simply no authority to
do anything about your concerns.

Yours faithfully,

E.J. Schmatt

 dear Mr E.J.Schmatt

 So what you are saying is anyone who is coming up to retirement or who
 is retired will not be held accountable for there actions
 i will take note of this when i get caught by a speeding camera or the
 police in the future or any other thing I might be held accountable
 for.
  thank you very much for your assistance
 So Mr Thompson decision to hold my son against his will is therefore
 unlawful as iI think my son might be retiring as well.

please note if I do not get a reasonable reply or a written appology
from Mr Thompson I will take this further

 yours truthfully

Dear Ms Hodgkinson,

Thank you for your letter concerning magistrate Thompson.
I just received a letter from the judicial commission of New South Wales
I will quote it here ...
"Dear Mr Strik,

I refer to your complaint you lodged with the commission in relation
to his Honour Magistrate Thompson of the Local Court.

Following receipt of your complaint form the commission received
advice that Magistrate Thompson had retired as a magistrate, effective
from 30 June,2008.As such he ceased to be a judicial officer under the
Judicial Officers Act 1986.

As magistrate Mr Thompson is no longer a judicial officer the
commission has no power to investigate your complaint and in those
circumstances I am unable to assist you in this matter.

yours faithfully,
E.J Schmatt
Chief Executive"


As this is the best they can do I would like to ask for the cases
that Mr Thompson sat on to be reviewed as I don't think justice has
prevailed.

your sincerly,
Stewart Strik

Education and its failing.

If you had to learn everything first-hand, you’d die stupid.
You pick up second-hand information from the printed page.
If you can’t learn, you might check to see if you feel you already “know it all.”
To study, the materials so one can pass an exam, Then one won’t be able to do anything with the subject once the exam is over.
The valid reason to study is to be able to understand and apply what is learned. 
To act as though the data had no value to you; and, with no intention to use the data, then this is a waste of time and resources!
An engineer gets his degree in engineering and never has intention to use the subject, The degree is a status symbol.
If you find a student who is afraid to get involved. He becomes a spectator and not a student.
Lack any of these three.
1.lack of application.
2. lack of data.
3.No execution of ideas.
Then there is no ability to do.
The above explains why one could study what one is interested in and have a good life.

Spiders in flight

I have only seen spiders in flight twice in my life. The conditions have to be exactly right. These little spiders float on the air on a string of spider silk that is so light they float for hundreds of yards. Here in Australia gazillions move from one tree to another. The ones I have seen the spiders are about a millimeter in diameter. I think they are moving to new homes and spreading the gene pool by doing so. The silk threads are so fine that they cannot be photographed, This is an amazing time in the bush.

If you live in Australia

If you have children under 18 years of age and these children have been diagnosed with ADHD and are on drugs prescribed by a psychiatrist then you have a case to sue the psychiatrist. The law states that children under eighteen years of age are not to be given psychotic drugs, you also may be breaking the law giving the drug to a child. Psychotic drugs do not work and do damage to a growing child's brain. It is about time that these people are taken to task for there illegal activities.
The trouble is lay people do not know the law and there rights. If you need more information please feel free to ask me and I will pursue this further.
