The best news in years…this will really stiff the busybodies & assorted nosy bastards who consider that they have an interest in knowing where I am & what I’m doing. We were only a matter of a few years away from being tracked, ostensibly to make payment of road user charges fairer but this will put a spanner in the works.

I don’t know why you would want to discourage the use of jammers. Whoever invented them is on the side of the righteous, small government & real human rights.

I’ll get one to pimp the Landcruiser.

The SAS, the army and the police decide to go on a survival weekend together to see who comes out top. After some basic exercises, the trainer tells them their next objective is to go down into the woods and come back with a rabbit for tea.

First up are the SAS. They don their infra red goggles, drop to the ground and crawl into the woods in formation. Absolute silence for 5 minutes, followed by a single muffled shot. They emerge with a rabbit, shot cleanly through the forehead.

“Excellent” says the trainer. Next up are the army. They finish their cans of lager, cover themselves in camouflage cream, fix bayonets and charge down into the woods, screaming at the top of their lungs. For the next hour the woods ring with the sound of machine gun fire, mortar bombs, hand grenades and blood-curdling war cries. Eventually, they emerge, carrying the charred remains of a rabbit.

“A bit messy, but you got a result. Well done” says the trainer. Lastly, in go the coppers, walking slowly, hands behind backs, whistling Dixon of Dock Green. For the next few hours, the silence is only broken by the occasional crackle of a walkie talkie: “sierra oscar lima one, suspect headed straight for you” etc.

After what seems an eternity, they emerge, escorting an opossum in handcuffs.

“What the fuck do you think you’re doing?” asks the incredulous trainer.

“Take this possum back and get me a rabbit, like I asked you five hours ago!”

So back they go. Minutes pass. Minutes turn to hours, day turns to night. The next morning the trainer and the rest of the crew are awakened by the police, holding the possum, now covered in bruises.

“Are you taking the piss?” asks the seriously irate trainer.

The police team leader shoots a glance at the possum, who squeaks: “Alright, alright, so I’m a bloody rabbit…”

It’s because they interfere with the sighting mechanism on my laser cannon nasska which is critical for accurate satellite tracking.

It’s just I haven’t yet cracked the encryption on the military GPS and therefore I’m forced (at the mo), to use the inferior civilian system which I know has a built in error but since I know what the error is I can correct it. However the interference plays havoc with the sighting reticle, it makes it go all squiggly. Someone in Eastbourne must have one and this is why it’s a problem for me and I confidently and logically extrapolate, for the rest of the world as well…

A totally logical explanation. One can only hope that you manage to crack the code.

As an aside a few years ago a mate of mine sat his skipper’s ticket allowing him to take a fishing boat out to the 100mile limit. It was quite an involved course of study & part of it was “shooting the sun” with an old fashioned sextant & the associated mathematics.

It seems that the authorities consider that ability essential even in this technological age. Apparently in the event of war the USA will shut down all GPS facilities. Makes sense but it also shows how dependent on the USA we are getting to be.

My budgie broke his leg today so I made him a little splint out of a couple of Beehive matches his little face lit up when he tried to walk.. Unfortunately, I had forgotten to remove the sandpaper from the bottom of his cage.

I got sacked last night from the Salvation Army soup kitchen, the ungrateful bastards. All I said was, ‘hurry up for Christ’s sake …………… some of us have got homes to go to!’

Got myself a new Jack Russell puppy, he’s mainly black and brown with a small white patch, so I’ve named him Auckland.

The Russians have another system operating I do not no if it has world wide coverage
I had to prove I could shoot a site to get category one U also need to have a sextant and tables on board to sail from new Zealand
Heaps of adjustments in the calculation, three sets of tables as well.
My back up gps witch was brand new died in the voyage.
The human mind and mark one eyeball is still the most valuable and reliable navigation aid.

Interesting. It makes sense to get equipped with those sort of skills anyway. Once you go beyond sight of land the ocean is a big place to get lost in.

How accurate dig you get with a sextant?

Apparently in the event of war the USA will shut down all GPS facilities.

Possibly nasska but they really do have two separate systems: military and civilian and the military one is extremely closely guarded. Both GPS and the internet have a military-only version. (The web after all was a DARPA project developed to provide an unbreakable comms network in event of nuclear war, so they certainly have a version accessible only to the military. They’d be nuts not to. Google Internet2 for example. That’s the version mooted to take over if an “unfortunate” (a.k.a. false flag) incident occurs like, say, a “tewwowist” causes a US power station to go critical or say the financial system to crash and they use that as an excuse to replace the ‘wild west’ with something else to “pwotect” us. DARPA may be brainy but no-one, not even them, predicted back in the 80’s what the web content would produce in terms of “dangerous” information. The internet today represents their biggest threat and at some point, they will move to eliminate it.)

OTOH they could keep the civilian GPS running and simply introduce an error into it, but that’s more subtle British style than American however the Americans aren’t stupid, are they. They’re arrogant, but they’re not stupid. So who knows.

Seriously though, in war, all bets are off. As I’ve said previously, the battle plan for a nuclear launch is to air-burst EMPs all over the world which immediately wipes all data, disables all vehicles that depend on electronics (almost all prior to say 1990 models), drops all planes from the sky, etc.

The fact this leaves all major metros in the entire world without law enforcement (for how do police protect if there are no, none, nada, vehicles, for example), is neither here nor there.

This is where we live, today.

Ha! Here’s an ironic twist. The guy fled to China when $10 million was accidentally put in his account has been bailed:

Thanks Griff, I’ll give it a go, but I fear the Ley Lines running through Nelson (BTW prompting the extraordinary number of witches who live in the region) might interfere.

But worth a try.

I’m wondering about just firing the fucking thing any old how and seeing what happens. It seems to work for the Americans in the movies so maybe this is the best and most logical approach. I mean, it’s on camera right? Hollywood doesn’t lie? Right? Right.

Laser cannon magnetic flux lines…….. what moron doesn’t get that ?
Thats old shit.

Definitely accurate enough to be highly useful. I was wondering how Off White with an Attitude was getting on……he might be a few fries short of a Happy Meal but he’s got guts to go to sea in a glorified waka.

No doubt he’ll be back to tell us all about it.

It’s very simple bereal.

Basically, I’m a lefty victim disguised as a conservative as a cover story. I therefore firmly believe I should already be wealthy enough to do anything I want and since I’m not, yet, I’m therefore a victim.

As a victim, someone or something other then me has to be responsible for my less than salubrious current circumstance and therefore I have reasonably, nay inevitably concluded it’s the richest entity on the planet whose directly responsible for my plight. This is at present the US govt, who has lots of satellites for which they will pay a lot of money to me in return for my not exercising my morally righteous victimhood in destroying said satellites via a long term project I’ve been discussing under great secrecy for awhile, here on Kiwiblog.

Sadly the GPS jammers and the Nelson-based witches are currently thwarting me in this objective for abovementioned reasons.

I trust this clarifies the situation. Please let me know if anything’s still unclear. (It’s all pretty chrystal to me.)

US: Iran not trying to build nuclear bomb

Published: 02.24.12, 10:03 / Israel News

The LA Times reported Friday that US intelligence agencies do not believe Iran is actively trying to build an atomic bomb.

Ahighly classified US intelligence assessment circulated to policymakers early last year largely affirms that view, originally made in 2007. Both reports, known as national intelligence estimates, conclude that Tehran halted efforts to develop and build a nuclear warhead in 2003. (Ynet)

Ah ha ha Elaycee. And I’m being forced to think by some of the rest of the posts- I’m three hours and one wine ahead. That’s harsh

A Hell of a position to be in. You don’t think that guiding the beam using a sextant would provide sufficiently pin point accuracy then?

Griff;

The settlement of the Czechoslovakian problem, which has now been achieved is, in my view, only the prelude to a larger settlement in which all Europe may find peace. This morning I had another talk with the German Chancellor, Herr Hitler, and here is the paper which bears his name upon it as well as mine. Some of you, perhaps, have already heard what it contains but I would just like to read it to you: ‘ … We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again.

-Neville Chamberlain 30th September 1938

No I’m afraid not nasska and the bugger is that the people at the zoo wouldn’t even let me try it out on a few monkeys to see whether or not the sextant idea (and thanks for that BTW), was going to be effective.

It’s not fair.

Well Reid – it used to be called Persia and Persia was more or less at war with the Hellenic world until the Arabs came along and did their thing.

Cyrus and so forth.

All I’m saying Reid is there is going to be a war sometime soon – where the spark will be lit I don’t know but lit it will be.

Andrei I’m suggesting look to whom is the aggressor, in this coming war, which we both agree is coming.

Look for example at how slow Iran has been to anger, in the face of years of aggression.

I know you’re very discerning.

This is not about Muslim-Christian, this is about Satan the Slanderer and Deceiver.

I don’t know who the aggressor is or who the aggressor is to be, Reid – I do know that the Western world has turned its face against God and terrible Blasphemies have been and are being committed – and that will have grave consequences.

One blasphemy just over a year ago in particular, shall we say startled me as did the virtual non reaction to it.
