"U.S Forces give the nod It's a setback for your country" I remember listening to a podcast of this talk last year. Transcript of the fourth annual Michael Hintze Lecture in International Security Delivered by Professor John Mearsheimer Interesting to see what he talked about start to develop.

Consultation on implementation of model drug schedules for Commonwealth serious drug offences
s4L replied to J Smith's topic in Legal Matters
There was a story on the front cover of mX today 'Wattle be next'. It basically explained the proposed changes saying that it would be illegal to wear a sprig of wattle on Australia day, and how ridiculous the laws would be etc. This would have raised the awareness quite a bit. -
The best way to go would be iron sulphate because it dissolves easily a watering can and then goes through the soil, takes a couple of days to see an effect. About $9 at cunnings hardware. Sulfur on the other hand needs to be dug in and takes about 3 months depending on temperature and how much life is in the soil.

Stopping the Illegalisation of 1000's of Plant species

Once again the government pisses all over the urinal cake that is our freedom. -
Hutch, Its a bit worrying that you cant see that all the links and information you posted from the climate realists website are total nonsense. They have no basis in reality. Your not actually supposed to take substance D.

In NSW they have automatic number plate recognition cameras mounted on patrol cars that automates that process now. The arm of the law just grew a bit longer. ANPR

I believe one of the tools scientists use is isotope ratios to research ancient climates. I was reading yesterday about how this technique came about. A paper called "Pleistocene Temperatures" was published in the Journal of Geology in 1955 written by Cesare Emiliani at the University of Chicago. He had pioneered the modern use of sediment cores by crushing up the shells of a once living, group of singled celled marine animals called a foraminiferas. "...Washed them in distilled water, pulverised them in a mortar and baked them at 482 degrees C in a stream of helium gas. From that perfectly clean powder of calcium carbonate, Emiliani extracted the oxygen the forams themselves had built into their shells thousands of years ago when they were alive. With a mass spectrometer he counted how many of those oxygen atoms were the light isotope, oxygen 16 which makes up more than 99 percent of all the oxygen on Earth, and how many were the heavier and much rarer isotope, oxygen 18. Normally the heavy oxygen prefers to be in calcium carbonate over water, because that reduces the overall vibrational energy of the molecular system. But as the temperature of the seawater goes up, that slight preference goes down, and with it the ratio of oxygen 18 to oxygen 16 in the foram shells. That ratio was the thermometer Emiliani used to take the temperature of the Pleistocene..." Thats an except from a book called, Fixing Climate, The story of climate science - and how to stop global warming by Robert Kunzig and Wallace Broecker. It's a pretty interesting book which might answer some of your questions.

My worm farm has developed maggots
s4L replied to hutch's topic in Sustainable Technologies & Ethical Living
Try adding a handful of sandy potting mix or soil every so often, since worms can't chew they need grit to eat their food. After I learned this my worm farm doubled in speed and got rid of my fruit fly problem. -

I'd say too little water probably, because they look like unglazed terracotta pots that dry out pretty fast. And because of the warmer weather in the past month they've started to put on new growth, which you can see at the top where the glaucous sheen stops and the bright green growth is. I'd move them gradually into more sun and only water after the soil has dried out, maybe remove a small area of the pebbles on the pot to monitor the moisture.
