Q Research General #24717: Noisy Shilldren Edition
In memory of Chuck Shramek the photographer of the Saturn-like object by the Hale Bopp comet in November of 1996, which gained him international notoriety…his appearance on Art Bell Dec 6, 1996 when all the shit was going down. He was this anon's best friend and partner in early chemtrail research. He started getting loud on Houston radio and the net about the programs and investigation in late1999/early 2000. He would have been 73 today. He was killed by a massive multi-system cancer which his oncologist said he had never seen anything like it ever. First felt pain Feb 13/14th, died May23rd 2000. I watched them zip him up in the body bag.
I miss him. He would have loved this board and you all would have loved him.
He was one of the smartest and funniest people I have ever known. Did his "Screaming Editorials" on Houston ROCK 101 radio for 30 years. Taught himself Morse code at the age of 9. Opened his segments with Morse code and people thought it was sound effects. It wasn't. He would do shit like send "Mark's hair is fake" referring to Mark Stevens of Stevens & Pruett the AM DJs. One day a tugboat captain in the Houston ship channel called the station and asked them if they knew he was broadcasting "fuck you, fuck you, fuck you" over and over in Morse code. Definitely a FCC violation. There will never be another one like him. So, Happy Chuckmas to all.

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/12038999/prince-andrew-cancels-spain-golf-trip-epstein-investigation/
PRINCE Andrew has cancelled his annual Spanish golf holiday because he's scared to go abroad during the Epstein investigation.
He stayed at a friend's Costa del Sol mansion last year
…
But a palace insider said Andrew, 60, has shelved this year's trip as he is "nervous" of leaving the UK after the US Justice Department made an official request to question him as a witness about Epstein.
His anxiety only increased after the arrest this week of friend Ghislaine Maxwell over her alleged roles in Epstein's sex offences.
She's said to have introduced Andrew to Epstein victim Virginia Roberts, who claims she slept with the royal at 17.
The duke denies the allegations and his lawyers say they have offered to provide a witness statement to the DOJ. But media lawyer Mark Stevens claims the request to speak to Andrew may be "a trap" to get him over to the US.

NZ Debates Free Speech Limits, Long Prison Terms for Downloading Christchurch Manifesto
DUNEDIN, New Zealand (AP) - New Zealanders are debating the limits of free speech after their chief censor banned a 74-page manifesto written by the man accused of slaughtering 50 people at two mosques in the city of Christchurch.
The ban, issued Saturday, means anybody caught with the document on their computer could face up to 10 years in prison, while anyone caught sending it could face 14 years. Some say the ban goes too far and risks lending both the document and the gunman mystique.
At the same time, many local media organizations are debating whether to even name the Australian man charged with murder in the March 15 attacks, 28-year-old Brenton Tarrant, after New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern vowed she would never mention him by name.
In some ways, Tarrant's manifesto provides the greatest insight into his character and thinking, with neighbours and those he met in a gym in the sleepy seaside town of Dunedin recalling nothing particularly reMarkable about him.
Chief Censor David Shanks said Tarrant's manifesto contains justifications for acts of tremendous cruelty like killing children and encourages acts of terrorism, even outlining specific places to target and methods to carry out attacks.
He said that in banning the document, he and his staff worried about drawing more attention to it. But in the end, he said, they decided they needed to treat it the same way as propaganda from groups like the Islamic State, which they have also banned.
Shanks had earlier placed a similar ban on the 17-minute livestream video the killer filmed from a camera mounted on his helmet during the shootings. He said researchers and journalists could apply for exemptions from both bans.
But while free speech advocates haven't questioned banning the graphic video, they said banning the manifesto is a step too far.
"People are more confident of each other and their leaders when there is no room left for conspiracy theories, when nothing is hidden," said Stephen Franks, a constitutional lawyer and spokesman for the Free Speech Coalition. "The damage and risks are greater from suppressing these things than they are from trusting people to form their own conclusions and to see evil or madness for what it is."
Franks said he had no interest in reading the manifesto until it was banned. He now is curious because it is "forbidden fruit," he said, and he worries others may feel the same way. He said the ban makes no sense when New Zealanders remain free to read Adolf Hitler's autobiography, "Mein Kampf."
Ardern told Parliament last week that she wouldn't give the gunman anything he wanted.
"He sought many things from his act of terror, but one was notoriety," she said. "And that is why you will never hear me mention his name."
She said people should instead remember the names of the victims.
Some media organizations appear to be taking up her call. News website Stuff on Saturday published an 1,800-word profile on Tarrant without once naming him.
"Our view at the moment is that we're dialling back on naming him, unless it's pertinent or important," said Mark Stevens, the editorial director at Stuff.
The New Zealand Herald also published a profile on Tarrant with an accompanying editorial that mentions Ardern's stance. The editorial says, "Our piece keeps the mention of his name to a minimum."

Anthony Albanese caught on camera joking about Pacific Policing Initiative with top US official Kurt Campbell
Stephen Dziedzic - 29 August 2024
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has bridled at questions from journalists about a private conversation where he joked with US Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell about splitting the cost of the Pacific Policing Initiative announced yesterday in Tonga.
Last night Radio New Zealand journalist Lydia Lewis filmed Mr Albanese and the top US official discussing the ambitious plan, which could reshape the way policing is conducted across the region.
In the video, Mr Albanese calls the announcement a "cracker" and said the initiative would make "such a difference" in the Pacific.
Mr Campbell called the plan "fantastic." He also suggested that the US had been contemplating a similar initiative until Australia's ambassador to the US Kevin Rudd asked them not to.
"I talked with Kevin about it and so you know, we were going to do something like that and he asked us not to so we did not," he said.
"We've given you the lane, so take the lane!"
After that Mr Albanese joked that the US could wear some of the cost of the initiative.
"We can go halfsies on the cost if you like," he laughed.
"Only cost you a bit."
After that exchange the Pacific Minister Pat Conroy appears to intervene after noticing the journalist recording, asking her to stop.
Mr Albanese brushed off the exchange when he was asked about it this morning in Nuku'alofa ahead of the Pacific Islands Forum leaders retreat on the northern island of Vava'u, saying there were no plans for the US to help cover the initiative's $400 million dollar price tag.
"No, he won't, because this has come from the Pacific. And I'm aware of the video of a private conversation," he said.
"Kurt Campbell's a mate of mine, it's us having a chat," he said.
The prime minister became visibly irritated when journalists continued to press him on the exchange, and suggested it was unethical for Ms Lewis to record him.
"Someone, you know, it's up to them, to whoever did that, to think about their own ethics when it comes to journalism," he said.
"It was a private conversation. It was a jovial conversation, and a friendly one - you know, it is what it is. People try and read something into it, you must be pretty bored, frankly."
He also brushed off questions about the initiative Mr Campbell appeared to allude to, saying the deputy secretary of state had been misinterpreted.
The comment comes after some Melanesian leaders raised concerns that the new Pacific initiative shouldn't be used to bolster Australia's strategic interests through a strategy of "denial" - a clear reference to boxing out China from the region's security arrangements.
When he asked if his joke with Mr Campbell might exacerbate those anxieties, Mr Albanese insisted that no Pacific leaders had raised any concerns during the leaders meeting yesterday.
"No one's raised that yesterday. Not a single person at the plenary, raised that yesterday. This is Pacific led, and it's a cracker of an announcement," he said.
In a statement, RNZ defended Ms Lewis, who wrote in her own story on the comments that she caught the conversation while filming cutaway shots during an event open to media.
"RNZ stands by its reporter and its reporting," said RNZ chief news officer Mark Stevens.
"Having spoken to our reporter, there is nothing to suggest they acted unethically or outside of our rigorous editorial policies."
Agreement raises hopes for New Caledonia mission
Mr Albanese arrived in Tonga on Tuesday to join regional leaders at the forum, where violent unrest in New Caledonia is among other items on the agenda.
France has struck an agreement with local officials in New Caledonia and Pacific leaders which should allow a high-level regional delegation to visit the troubled Pacific territory shortly.
A planned mission with three Pacific leaders had to be postponed last week because France and officials in New Caledonia could not agree on who had ultimate control over the visit.
But France's ambassador to the Pacific, Veronique Roger-Lacan, confirmed that the terms for the Pacific mission had been settled, and simply had to be ticked off by Pacific leaders today during their retreat at Vava'u.
"The mission will be an information mission," she said.
"The time and duration of the mission will have to be decided, in discussion with the [Pacific Islands Forum], the French state, and the government of New Caledonia."
