Today we talk with Stephanie Messanger who explains how, if we take the time to understand our responsibilities regarding our personal and family well being we can manage our health without the use of vaccination.
Stephanie has been more than an advocate against vaccination and big Pharmaceutical for years, having had a personal tragedy in her own life, she is more importantly promoting the self care and education that we should take for ourselves as the natural order of good health.
Stephanie helped to educate me to the increase in conditions such as Autism due to the the side effects of vaccination and the research that is underway to show the effects compared to non vaccinated communities.
As today is the 90th anniversary of the end of World War One I thought I might reflect on some things that have been on my mind.
It’s been a while since the kerfuffle about Paul Keatings comments recently regarding Gallipoli.
From the Herald Sun newspaper…
He said he has never been to Gallipoli and never will because it is nonsense to think the nation was born again or redeemed there.
On the one hand we were out to prove that ‘the British race in the antipodes had not degenerated’, yet we resented being dragooned into a war which did not threaten our own country or its people,” Mr Keating said.
Given Australian loyalties to England at the time, Keating said it was entirely understandable that Australia troops fought the Turks at Gallipoli, but the experience was shocking.
“Dragged into service by the imperial government in an ill-conceived and poorly-executed campaign, we were cut to ribbons and dispatched,” he said.
I’ve been musing for the past few days as to what Anzac Day means to Australians and why there is such an outcry to his statement.
If you have been following the news lately it’s been heating up that the Australian Government under Kevin Rudd is planing to introduce what some are referring to the Great Australian Firewall. Internet
censorship at the ISP level that simply can’t work for reasons that I respect from others far more knowledgeable than myself.
I decided that this was serious enough to act on so I’ve sent a letter to Senator Steven Conroy, Minister for Broadband, Communications and Digital Economy and to my local Federal Member who just happens to be Kevin Rudd, Prime Minister of Australia. Hey, he’s my local member so that’s who I send stuff like this to.
I remember many years ago someone in the media said that a phone complaint was worth another ten who didn’t complain and a letter was worth a hundred. Today with email and the Internet we’re lazier than ever. If an online petition is worth one, a phone call is worth ten, and email is worth 100 maybe a letter posted is worth 1000 simply because of the effort it takes and a follow up blog post for those of us who know how is additional to that and a little more value. Nothing will change if nothing is done and every little bit helps.
Back in July when I was staying with the wonderful Romy she would mention from time to time that during the summer months musicians would wander the streets filling the air with exotic carnival sounds looking for donations and adding to the general festive atmosphere that is Berlin during the these months.
Well, quite a few times she brought this up but they never arrived and I started to pay out on her that they didn’t really exist and that she said this just to make Berlin sound more interesting or to encourage people to come and stay with her. The same complaint was made by many of her friends as they had never seen them either when she mentioned that they were about which added more fuel to the fire of my good natured ribbing that I was giving her.
Then one day this happened…
So now we know.
Romy is correct and the added atmosphere that they give to the streets of Berlin is something that lingers in my memory as I look back on this video of my time with her in Berlin.
Today we talk with Colin Kerr who is my sisters father in-law who generously shared some time with us about his early life in Britain, dealing with life as a teenager during the war years and the fascination that only a 15 year old can have in war time despite the dangers of the blitz. As a young man he spent time in compulsory military service in the early ’50 and shares the wonderful life that could be had in the military during peace time.
Colin explains his experiences of understanding both the British and French cultures and how he feels to be primarily European rather than being specifically British. He shares his thoughts on the British attitude towards involvement in external affairs of other countries and the impact that has on life in the UK going back to the influx of migration from the fifties and the impact of the IRA through to the involvement in the affairs of Western Europe and the United States of America.
Today we talk with McConnie E. Providence who approached me while I was walking down Whitechapel Road in London. He had noticed my Matrix Crew Jacket that I was wearing while fumbling around in my bag to get my recorder out. He ask me a few things about my involvement in the Matrix Films and I mentioned that I had worked on them as a special effects technician when they were being made in Sydney.
Coincidentally McConnie had been involved with Keanu Reeves along with many other successful young students in Canada while running a Drama Youth Programme many years ago while as an undergraduate at York University in Toronto.
After a brief exchange I mentioned what I was doing and McConnie agreed to come on Your Story to share his passion for music composition, conducting and performing. Where he came from in St Vincent in the Caribbean and the way music was a major part of his upbringing and the developed through his life in Canada and his travels around the world.
Yesterday I reached into the washing machine to find my 2nd Generation iPod Nano wet and bedrageled like a kitten left outside after a thunderstorm. My heart sank as I looked at the pretty patterns that the water was making between the LCD and the front screen.
So on line I found the instructions on how to pull it apart and carefully did so. Carefully due to the tiny screws involved and then mopped the poor thing dry.
For the next few hours I left it baking under my desk lamp and this morning I reassembled it. The end result you can see in the seesmic video.
Wish I had better news but it looks like I may be getting a 4th Generation iPod shortly. Shame as this iPod perfectly suited my needs at work as it fits in my shorts pocket and is a breeze to use and it’s all I need for work.

It’s been some time since there has been a Your Story Episode, unfortunately the constraints to produce an episode while on the road travelling made it difficult to find the time required for the standard necessary to do justice to the wonderful people that I meet.
However now that I’ve returned to Australia it’s possible to finish the necessary work required to get an episode out and here it is.
Today we talk with Michael Kierans who in is a Canadian migrant living with his Czech wife in Prague, Czech Republic. He is established as owner of two cafes bars after reading this article https://www.salesforce.com/blog/2017/11/what-is-marketing-attribution-model.html having moved from his successful life as a lawyer in Canada to Prague after the fall of Communism. Michael explains the difficulties of dealing with a different cultural and mental attitude that permeates all aspects of life in the Czech Republic from organizing the necessities of running a business or improving the marketing of it, with the use of alternatives as a digital signage screento promote your products and services. Or if you use search engine optimization (SEO) techniques to increase your brand’s visibility, then you know the importance of backlinks.
If you need to redesign your existing business websites to improve usability, conversions, and branding, then it is best to see this website redesign pricing here for your preferences, and for all the payments you need to manage and do the use of an online paystub generator could be the best choice for you.
If you have been looking for different ways to get more quality backlinks for your site, then you must have come across a phrase known as “niche edits Backlinks”.
I’ve been nearly eight weeks away from Australia experiencing all that I could of the culture, sights but particularly the people that I met and had a chance to commune with as I drifted from home and country of one person into the life of another. It was an amazing trip as all trips that people do and it was a trip that will impact in ways that I cannot fathom yet. That and getting over a bit of jetlag is the reason that it’s taken a week to get this episode out but here it is.
It’s best to just let you listen to it. I thought about rerecording it but decided to leave it as it is as it shows the confusion that I have about a few things as I continue to settle back in.
