The accident occurred on the Waterfall Way, less than 1km north of Bellingen at about 8pm in a 100kph speed zone, according to police crash investigators.

The victim, believed to be a local 32-year-old woman, was apparently walking along the road in the dark.

It appears that after the woman was hit , witnesses rushed to render first aid, but the woman was not conscious or breathing and shortly after went into cardiac arrest.

Paramedics arrived and commenced CPR, however, the woman died at the scene.

Ambulance, police including detectives, crime scene and crash investigators and SES attended the scene.

Police spoke to family and witnesses, and at about 2am police found a car wanted in relation to the crash and sent a tow truck to a Bellingen address to collect the vehicle.

A man is currently being interviewed by police in relation to the crash.

Waterfall Way north of Bellingen was closed for approximately seven hours while police conducted investigations and traffic was diverted around the crash scene.

We have had a lot of talk about Stars lately.  Lots of talk of this brown Dwarf star called Nirbiru which is nearing  our planet now.  Some say its not real, others are thoroughly freaked by the possibility.  There is some notable weather issues occurring.  I think its there.  I have seen some strange stuff in the night sky in the last year.  So much so it takes me out there to look at the night sky with great purpose!

WHITE..

Famously said", We are not anti white, we are against white supremacy......  we have condemned racialism no matter by whom it is professed .~  Nelson Mandela  1961
this was during his defense statement during his treason trial!

 
Being condemned for being who you were born is a happless situation.  It is a cruel and unjust way.  There are many who prescribe to this way of living their lives.  My children lay the boot in when people are down, I did not treat them to do this! Pehaps I did, they hated everyone who ever came to the soupie!   Why say that and then be best friends with them! Me think kid speaks with fork tongue.  Me think kid got psychiatric issues.

CLEAN and WHITE ... one

He sends His pure sweet love

WHITE


White is a color, the perception of which is evoked by light that stimulates all three types of color sensitive cone cells in the human eye in nearly equal amounts and with high brightness compared to the surroundings. A white visual stimulation will be void of hue and grayness.

White reflects light and is a cooling color to wear in the heat!  Seems like an equally good idea for a pushbike, hopefully a white one will be cooler to ride.  I am joking here.  Looks like a summery bike though this one.  When I saw Jaimies pic I asked her permission to use it.  I love it a lot actually,  it depicts summer for me.  The beach,  the white bike and the wooden beach viewing platform!

Simply Red ... dix

RED


Technically speaking this isn't Red, not in the sense of the artists palette.  But in natures palette, this is a red dawn.  The sky goes from a dappled pale light just  a little before dawn,  then, as the sun is nearing the horizon, but just before it shows, the entire sky goes red.  A brilliant colour red happens for a few seconds and it is spectacular.   

You have to be dedicated to get up at dawn for shots like this.  Not that this shot is the greatest.  I don't think it is photographic, it really isn't.  I personally think it is a fairly ordinary shot.  But its what is in this shot that is unique perhaps.   There is "something" in the sky above the dawning sun.  I have read recently of a peculiar thing happening at dawn.  I have read that it is as if there are two suns appearing in the sky at once.  This is why we were where we were this particular morning and I was not disappointed.  
Any suggestions or like pictures out there recently.

REDS were once the fear communists and the enemy.  Today its all about terrorism.  We saw the communism thing taken way too far with various comedy shows like Maxwell Smart showing us all the absolute truism of government bungling at its finest.  Older people cannot be fooled this time around as we have seen it all before.  The scare mongering techniques used to influence the masses. 

In Bellingen there have been many meetings and stickers have been made saying " Sedition is not free Speech" and I have one of these stickers on my laptop.  They were by a group of people who do seek to be proactive against such laws.  The website below is an informative take on those times for more information.

SEPT - French word for the cardinal numeral seven (7)

SEDITION - noun / the incitement of discontent or rebellion against a government .  The incitement of discontent or rebellion against a government or any action especially in speech or writing , promoting such discontent or rebellion. Archaic.. rebellious disorder

The future retiring age in Australia will rise to 67 years.  There are some who are not completely suited to this model of sheep herding by the government.  It may get worse yet before it gets better.
Real countries don't put their elderly in holding paddocks (nursing homes)  to die like we do.  It is a sad reflection of our society and its present values regarding the elders.

Nothing can be so amusingly arrogant as a young man or woman who has just discovered an old idea and thinks it is their own.  ~  Sidney J Harris Author


Just Sayin...
This has happened to me a lot lately,  I have felt this many times in the last couple of years as my teen age children grow, and after having heard me for a lifetime, they seem to distance themselves from me.  This is the harsh reality of the  developmental stage they are all in. I won't get a fair go at this time.



I had the idea that co-sleeping was the dopest way kids could get closest to their parents.  This was well frowned upon by the establishment in my circle.  Now 25 years later it is as though they thought of it now themselves and look how good we are for it.  . I, in fact borrowed the idea from the natives who have no other way of approaching the situation both fulfilling a need for warmth, closeness, and ease of nurturing.  There was no need for a separate space as baby was with mother.  This to me seemed sensible.  Today there is all sorts of scientific data to back up my now distant claims of the past.  I feel like the quote above now,. No one really came back and said, "hey Mezza, you were right about sleeping with your kid, it is so much better."  No one from the family said anything, no one from the town said anything.  Years ago they all had a lot to say about it.  All negative.  Now these same ones say nothing to vindicate me, nothing to heal the wounds of the past taunts.  The pendulum did not swing back as it does in the natural universe.
 The Elderly in Modern Society: A Cultural Psychological Reading


This is the hard reality that we have to face.  Sometimes, just a little bit of kudos would go a long way in making people feel that their lives were worth while in the true sense of it.  Someone noticed they made a difference and it had been noted, if only in the circle of family and friends or the community or the world at large.  All of those are valid depending on the nature of the idea in total.  Big stars and celebrities get this kind of kudos all the time.  Jay Z has even said himself that he made the Yankee's Hat more famous than the Yankees can.  Now that is a big arsed statement to say about yourself, however it is probably true.  He will get the kudos, but hypothetically a lowly father in the back woods who created the fledgling Yankees logo from a good idea and does it and if its not noted then at that time the idea is soon  stolen by others and taken as "their own idea".
This is a dodgy situation to happen to anyone.  Humans need a certain amount of recognition, this cements back into us  we are performing in the world O.K. 

"Our cognition is fed back to us through the method of recognition"  ~ Mary-Ellen Peters.

Someone recognised the Currumbin Bird Sanctuary" was a good idea a long long time ago, glad they have not lost sight of this and disposed of it.   This could happen as it is on prime real estate land at the Gold Coast"

SIMPLY RED - Quatre

RED..


If I owned this ride I would be so damn embarrassed.  Accidents happen though and all too frequently.
In an episode of the television comedy The Big Bang Theory, ( The Euclid Alternative Theory which aired originally back in October of 2008), Sheldon insists that he not be given a red car to use in the simulator provided for him to use to teach him driving skills.  He stated that Red cars get more speeding tickets.

This myth is false but  there are a number of reasons why people do think this!  SNOPES answers this for us.  Some are feasible others are just idiocy in my opinion.

SIMPLY RED Trois

You don't have to put on the red light.  Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight.
~ Roxanne - The Police - 1978


Sting wrote the song, inspired by the prostitutes he saw near the band's seedy hotel while in Paris, France in October 1977.  The name Roxanne was inspired by a poster on the wall of the hotel of the play "Cyrano de Bergerac". 

"Panache", is a french word  meaning   flamboyance of manner and with reckless courage.  This describes both Cyrano de Bergerac's character in the play  and the beautiful bloom in the photograph. "
For anything to grow here it takes absolute reckless courage and a certain flamboyancy to go with it.  It gets very hot in that spot in summer.

One is said to be in the Red if they are not doing so well financially!


Red facts are fun, and there are so many. 

The word Ruby comes from the Latin word rubens meaning red.
The name "raspberry" originally referred to the red-fruited European species Rubus idaeus.
Seeing the color red can make you feel hungry and can make your heart beat faster.

BLACKOUT - HAMAR

BLACK is mentioned in Gerald Manley Hopkins poem "I Wake"

I WAKE and feel the fell of dark, not day.
What hours, O what black hours we have spent



This night! what sights you, heart, saw; ways you went!
And more must, in yet longer light’s delay.
With witness I speak this.
But where I say 5 Hours I mean years mean life.
And my lament
Is cries countless cries
like dead letters sent
To dearest him that lives alas! away.

I am gall, I am heartburn.
God’s most deep decree
Bitter would have me taste: my taste was me;
10 Bones built in me, flesh filled, blood brimmed the curse.
Self yeast of spirit a dull dough sours I see
The lost are like this, and their scourge to be
As I am mine, their sweating selves; but worse.

Hopkins uses the absence of light to communicate his grief and uncertainty throughout the poem and uses light to symbolize hope. 

I chose this poem to symbolize black as Gerald Manley Hopkins is one of my favorite poets of his time.  b.July 28, 1844 died June 8, 1889, He writes about the demons that happen in the darkness and how things seem worse in the dark hours and with the light a new hope is once more re kindled. Sometimes it is the dawn and the sight of the sun that has saved me from my own despair of being awake in those dark hours sleeping five hours maximum most evenings. As Hopkins was laying dying, his last words were. "I am happy, oh so happy"

BLACKOUT - BEDERATZI


BLACK is worn a lot by people performing on stage and black is still the colour of choice to be worn out at night by most.




More on the "Meaning and Symbolism" of the color Black.
Black is authoritative and powerful; because black can evoke strong emotions too much can be overwhelming. Black represents a lack of color, the primordial void, emptiness. A classic color for clothing possibly because it makes the wearer appear thinner and more sophisticated.

BLACKOUT - ZAZPI

BLACK or Negative tattooing is my style.  I am not a fan of colour in tattoos.

I have a number of black tattoos, a style of tattooing that regained popularity.



 

Typically, black and gray tattoo work is produced by diluting the black ink with distilled water in various proportions, creating a "wash", lighter shades can be produced. Some artists mix white ink with black to produce a gray shade, but it is not the traditional method.
After a tattoo has been completed with varying degrees of black, highlights are often added using white. White ink can also be used to smooth out sharp transitions between the different shades.

BLACKOUT - BOST

BOST - BASQUE word for the numeral 5
Black is my favorite color. I go back to black, black, black, black! Well known line from the late Amy Winehouse's album by the same name "Back to Black"

I love blackouts and using candles when there is a power outage. There is something romantic about this to me.

My car is black. My best friend's hair is black. My cat is black. In fact my first cat was black too. Black is not considered a color as it has the absence of light. People have black moods, and if you traveling along alright financially speaking, you are said to be trading in the black.
Lately everything appears black, some days are in fact blacker than others for me. Is this depression? Is depression normal when your in fact sad? I think so, I think that if your feeling like your heart has been completely crushed beyond recognition than Black is how your going to feel.
If you are punched in the eye you get a black eye..... same same if your punched in the heart you get a black heart, its not rocket science.

Black is my favorite color.  I go back to black, black, black, black!  Well known line from the late Amy Winehouse's album by the same name "Back to Black"

I love blackouts and using candles when there is a power outage.  There is something romantic about this to me.
