It’s strange to put a face to a contributor , but that’s basically what I imagined AndyM would be like. I’ve actually been quite close with how I’ve previously pictured other crew before I’ve met them / seen them.

Indo , I picture you as a relatively quiet and slower spoken fella of medium / lean build and height. Dirty blonde or light brown hair.

I look exactly as you’d imagine....

It's a little disappointing to consider that Indo doesn't have horns (like the avatar). Funny where the mind goes - uplift as Lord Humungus, Gary G as one of his henchmen...
Speaking of Gary, when asked about his pic at the wavepool, I think he steered everyone in the direction of FR's pics - genius level trolling if so!

[NEWS] GC Global Waves Conference
swellnet AndyM makes huge strides towards WSR Legislation.

GC Bulletin... 12th Feb 2020...by Rosemary Ball.
'Landmark Strategy to Protect Surfbreaks for Community'.
{Unedited swellnet crew version.}
The State Govt has signed a "Historic Partnership" with GC WSR to protect the stretch of beach between Burleigh & Snapper Rocks for "Future Generations".
"Hearing from many people they want a bit more security for the Reserve." Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said on the Coast yesterday ahead of the Global Waves Conference.
"Now my Government are actively looking at legislating the WSR in Qld. We want to protect this area for future Generations."
Speaking at Rainbow SLSC yesterday, Qld Premier said the"Whole Beach Amenity" would be considered, including " The Removal of Any Structures " Going into The Water or "NEAR" the WSR.
"We will be looking at all those details at the Conference starting today at Southern Cross University and we will hear about the World's Best Practice on how to go forward. The Community Owns This as well."
WSR Chairman, swellnet's Andrew McKinnon said: " The partnership would stop the stretch of Beach from being used for Rock Concerts, Marinas, & CST's." The Area was declared the 8th WSR in 2016.

Surf Scene with Andrew McKinnon...
* The 12th WSR (Vote on Friday 14th Feb)
* GCCC Meeting with WSR < > Save The Waves
(Oceans & Beaches Management & Strategy + PB Reef + safety / amenity)

PS: tbb points out some of many likely sticking points in GC WSR legislation.

Qld Events : Triathlons, Aussies, Cooly Gold, Operas, Foreshore Gigs/Pubs!
The Rainbow Quarries. (Erosion!) How, When or even if they'll ever be filled.
Dredging during Whale Migration.
Drones are fast biting into restricted WSR No Fly Zones...('Outta Control' already)
Froggies / D'bah Sand Pumps operate outside the WSR...(Oops! Too much!)
WSL stuctures +(Ads) impede the Surf Line & block Snapper's Surfer's access.
The proliferation of WSL Comp leasing of Public WSR Beaches for foreign profit.
Dangerously risk Policing of Tow-ins & Jump off Jetskis in Cyclonic Seas
The choking of Endangered species Reef foraging Habitat.
The Shark Nets & Drum Lines are not on the table.
GC Airport drains PFAS into Cooly Creek...who can stop that?
Reclaimed Currumbin SLSC Parked Cars keep floating away.
Currumbin Boating Channel cuts thru the Alley line.
GCCC Currumbin & Talle Creeks pumps smother WSR "A Frames".
Increased Pump loads will erode upper creek vegetation (Marine Debris)
The pumping of Creek sand to dump out from Burleigh Point!
Burleigh Beach Bar boulders off "Rock Pool Trail" to corrupt tide into WSR.

tbb shows just how monumental a promise of anything is, a huge step forward.

Weird Double Zero point coincidence.
Leonardo is on OZ leg surf off with (Above) Tyler's Bro for 2020 WSL Qualification.
Only the Oz Leg & Tour may not happen...
2020 WSL #1 Highest Points 1st CS Winner will likely win 2020 wooden spoon.

Carissa is on a Lay Year & is only on tour to score hassle free surf lineups (Privilege!)

Double Dead rubber has nothing to do with Coronavirus makes this the weirdest story of the day.

Frontline Health Report!
Hot Tip! You won't find 99 people at the Hospital.
tbb visited GC Hospital today (Midday)
Scored #1 Best ever...even closer than disabled [P]
Ok! That sounds like Bullshit...(Swear it's True...like a Boss!)

Walking in was Cool enough ( Hand rub + Q & A)
tbb was the "Only Outpatient" in that whole Ward (Normally Packed of 100's)
Asked WTF...(Staff denied that Outpatients had Cancelled!) That is clearly a lie!
tbb can tell you 99% cancelled at Midday Today & not only in my ward...

tbb went for a stroll & saw empty wards aplenty..
No more than 50 Patients all up for OZ #1 Hospital ?
However 1000's of Staff Queuing in Cafeteria...with all the time in the world.
tbb has heard that good money is on offer for doing...Well! Nothing today! Clearly!

Comm Games Ghost Town all over again...Stay away! Keep Back! Fuck Off!
Well! It's working pretty Good.. turns out sick Aussies aren't so sick, after all!
Perhaps Corona cured every disease known to man?

tbb tried pretty hard to escape along with others trying to get in...No Luck!
Within the Hour... GC Hospital went into Lockdown.
New 40ft barge Pole distance!
One Way In / Out with 1,000 Robot Hand Pumps fingering you..
That's Right! All malfunctioning by the end of the 1st hour...Sorted!

did it really go into lockdown while you were there?

Thanks for kind thoughts velocityjohnno / Blowin...still to weak to surf but OK to swim.
Not Coronavirus...just running the Gauntlet!

Yes! VJ your fairly innocuous question just brought the crew some time.(read on!)

Upfront & 100% Fact! Doctors /Staff : Business as usual...lock in Appointments!

When tbb went in at 11:15am all entries & exits were free of supervision.
There were Outpost Stations for Hand rub...some walked by, no drama!

12:30pm upon leaving all Auto Doors locked tight...myself & others not knowing.
Signs were put up to direct all to the only supervised sanitised Exit / Entry.

At first tbb thought directive came from the PM down, with today's 100 ruling...
Now think that directive came from staff, not wanting cafeteria bugged by ferals.

Staff usually walk over to Stronger Brew Cafe...in the separate [P] precinct.
Today that cafe was absent of Staff! (Put those together & there's the answer!)

Union has most likely banned this outpost Cafe as too risky.
Detoured cafeteria crowd thru sterilised solo entry, protects Staff from an outbreak.
Smart move & really should have been that way from the start...seems fair enough!

So yes a lock down but for Staff Safety & is likely now an interstate Govt procedure.
No doubt will flow onto Larger multi entry facilities to secure a solo Entry / Exit.
Schools are for the most part are One Entry or can be made so easily.

However Mall / Clubs have multi entries & can spread corona quick & easy.
Stricter protocol will also be needed surrounding fresh food Hygiene!

Pause! tbb is saying to wise up! Hospital Cafeteria is serving up a warning! Get it!
Solo Sanitised Entry will be the norm! (Parking Wars / Queues / Bullies etc...)
Note 1-2 Days fresh food is selling out in 1 hr...(Mall is fast becoming a war zone!)
Fagin's child thieves is not out of the question...

2023 Central GC Creeks swellnet crew prevented 12,100 Litres of Rubbish from entering Waterways.
This excludes Green waste that was not binned but safely cleared & bundled .
Obviously when or if Council mulches these Green waste piles...it would equal the Rubbish total.

This massive central GC Creeks' Winter / Summer Clean Up is all down to swellnet crew support...
tbb wishes to acknowledge & Salute fellow swellnet crew equally cleaning their beaches & waterways!
This being a frontline intro into swellnet clean up crews.

( Wildlife ) Recent...
Several Toads / 3 Possums / 2 Birds / 1 Bat / 1 Snake + ( Residents returned water dragons )
Be alert & patient as displaced wildlife scamper thru neighbourhoods seeking new homes!
Birds / Butterflies are also flying lower & nearer to humans until new wildlife routes are established
Snakes / Lizards / Spiders homes were scattered over paths & roadsides...take care!

Personally recently returned 3x Lost Property ( ID Card / $8,000 Receipt / Set of Truckerz Keys!)
Equally returned more than that & recovered stolen goods thru the Year...(Dozen Returns thru year )

Guide lost motorist/s + Attend-Assist Car Accident + Crime Victim/s Support + Town Fire Alert
Gave similar support thru the year...simply down to being in the frontline of town action.

With local crew's help cleaned up all Roads and Nature Trails (Community Effort!)
swellnet volunteer further cleared Bus Stops / Cycleways / Paths > Now cleared for intended use.
This actually represents as swellnet crew's 3rd Whole Town Cleanup thru the year into 2024.
Kinda like the first 2 were a gift to the town > The 3rd was forced upon the Town...serving as Frontline!

Forever Autumn Leaf Litter Look is all the Rage...also now generally cleared of problem sized twigs!
From Above...
* Wetlands ( One last large 3-4ft wide Tree trunk is cross - blocking the Main Trail ) > Detour >
Noting the Wetland Trails are open but not 100% accessible as standard for common town use!
tbb further cleared & better formed the local Detour Trail to suit 'off road' Cycles / Wheelies / Prams
Please take extra care & time at these temporary naturally formed 'Non approved' detour points!
Locals freely tested & approved of tbb's makeshift fix, but it's not maintained by on call crews...
Please approach with caution as any naturally worn trail!

Thumbs Up!...residents are stoked with swellnet crew's Volunteer Clean Up!
Many > Thanx each day & mostly today! + offers of refreshments + Toots'n'waves!

Notes / Disclaimer
(Above) swellnet crew is self volunteering tbb + swellnet support well wishers...
Many other swellnet crew litter tallies not added here...perhaps a dedicated Clean up site later...

Town access with Hi Viz / Road -Rail safety / Shared-Moderated Council approved Waste Transfer.
Strictly No disturbing Wildlife / Private Property / Residents / Services / Transit.
Strictly No operation during...Heat/Winds/Storms/Rains/Floodwaters
Strictly No operation near Traffic / Rail / Downed Powerlines / Large Risk Trees / Steep scrambles.
Creeks / Drains are cleared in driest safest shallowest periods...never intentionally waded thru!
Upmost care is taken to prevent injury to Senior Outpatient Volunteer in accessible thru-fares!

Thanx to crew for affording tbb the chance to give back when it matters most & feel proud to Volunteer!
True! Crew's hard earned taxes & lifeline support all keep tbb in the game...salute swellnet crew!

Not well enough for a day's work or to hit the surf but just well enough to return favour to Australia!
Being true to oneself is all ya got when reserves are runnin' low...energy spent must return max reward!
Crew may know tbb was isolating for too long...only know stark reality is wot helps one live a life.
If not to best serve our local slice of Australia...then tbb wrestles bipolar within his sarcophagus!
All or nothing...it's that simple...ya don't get a choice tbb...suck it up!

Wisest Gromz within' the Village swear tbb lives the grandest most humble life...WTF...tbb is stunned.
Bloody smart little buggerz are wise beyond their years...who & how are they to know this secret of life!

2024 Fed Govt BOM Alerts Review Timeline
4th Jan (Dec 2023 Summary)
9th Jan (Regional /Capital City Reviews)

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-11-29/emergency-signs-in-auslan/11747288
Early Feb (Complete 2023 Review)
End 2024 Fed Emergency Warning System becomes available

24th Jan Exclusive #1swellnet Crew Qld Emergency Alert Review
Conducted mid Cyclone Season by Qldurr tbb...one of many thru the digital age.

Review of Emergency Alert Media access & performance.
Findings reveal...
Alerts are geared towards saving the Wealthy & deprive Disabled / Indigenous / Youth / Aged
Most accessible media is most obstructive (vs) Most reliable Media is not advantaged.
Host of Govt Media links are often redundant or inoperative for several years
Many ancient links lead to dead ends.

Qld is [ Not Ready ]
Govt prescribe to Prepare for Storm Season.
Alerts to Stock up for 3 days or Advise to Evacuate for 3 days (More > Danger Level)
Message : "You must not wait for a warning before you react!"
Alert Systems are still in changing mode...a work in progress...see above timeline!
Radio / TV / News media has No Obligation to Auslan or Hourly Updates
Weather determines BOM to upgrade Warning > Govt > Services > TV Live Media Alerts.
www + Social Media act as default frontline links thru-out Telco / TV / Power Blackouts.

Qld Govt Disaster / Emergency Social Media prioritizing order...

#1 [Facebook] Extortion Block [Subscribe / Die] One can [X] the Threat to access all but 3 Sites
eg: Qld Govt Disaster Page / ABC Radio / SNARL (Traffic ) All oddly Blocked [Facebook] Links

Facebook Subscription secondary mandate to remove Base Bar blocking (*Links / *Comment Updates).
Facebook extorts Govt Alerts for Subscriptions but begrudgingly oblige hard fought rogue access.
Seems Ok for basic [i] but folk are locked out of Updates / Full instructional Links!
This in not up for debate...Ya can't Extort or pretend to Extort then Block Chosen Comments / Links!
[Facebook] Still decides which Aussies Live or Die..
Govt must Mandate 100% Open Alert to the People (vs) [Facebook] Govt Ransom Under Terrorist Act!

#2 {Twitter } ....[X]
99% Qld Govt sites still slovenly promote {Twitter} Links > [X] Strictly Subscription Access
Qld Education updated brand [X] > Strictly Subscription Access
Qld Main Roads ( Metro / Far North) updated [X] Open Access > Site [i] stalled since 2017
[X] Also opens up a very tiny little bit more in Council Sites! (Below)

#3 Insta
100% of Govt Sites that Link [Insta] Block Access > Extort Alerts > Mandate Subscription Access.
ABC / BOM / Get Ready / Police / QFES / Translink / Health / Ed / NP Alerts 'Extorted' for [Subscription]
Explanation...{Facebook} Extortion (Now Bluffs) Blocking but [Insta] still block! Not all! (See Councils)

#4 YouTube
100% Open access across Whole of Qld (Not one Block > #1 Faultless Reliable Media)
Prepare / Instructional Vids > Qld Police / Health / QFES / BOM
Problem : Not Universally utilized by Translink / Parent School Storm Procedure.
Also not Convenient for Comment / Disabled Link Access > Requires fully able Adult subscription.
Low Key Sport Coverage often runs all day but no trials for "Similar Real Time Emergency Feed!"
Much potential but underutilised as #1 Reliable pro active Live Crisis Event Media Tool : "Storm Aid"
#1 swellnet Crew best realize the ramifications & pitfalls of broadcasting an Unfolding Live Crisis!
No one wishes for Mass devastation playing out in yer living room! Oh the Humanity!
Real Time Rescue TV slays Ratings but ...who can survive the ordeal of broadcasting Death...Forget it!

#5 Linkedin
Qld Ed / Health / Nat Parks browse this but often Extorts Subscription Access ...can click [X] to access!
Becomes more active in Council review...(See Below)

Govt Disaster Web Page + Get Ready www.
Links to 78 Council / Shire Dashboards...(Review)
https://www.getready.qld.gov.au/find-your-local-council

43/78 Wealthy Councils run state of the art Get Ready Dash Models with similar inhouse layout / links.
Risk Ratings / Alerts / Interactive Transit Map > Flooding / Closures / Hubs + Radio Stations + Links
1 Indigenous Mob extends Cairns' Flash Seaboard Dashboard
17 Regions hobble makeshift Disaster Updates with various Social Media.
8 Indigenous Mobs hobble Makeshift Disaster Updates on Scant Social Media.
4 Indigenous Mobs have Zero Social Media Links / Dashboards
2 Small Shires have Zero Social Media Links / Dashboards
3 Shire's Links failed to operate....Bye Bye!

Council's Privatized Covert Messaging (vs) Premier's Open Alert Access

67 Facebook Fake Extortion Threats > 1 being real (No access until ya Subscribe Punk!)
Reminding that [All facebook Alerts still lock out End Links / Updated Comment access]
33 Linked to Insta > 10/33 'Regionals' Prohibited Alerts by Extorting a mandated Subscription!

26 (#1 Example) Linked to YouTube > All 26 (100%) Full open access to Govt Messages!

24 Linkedin > Most faked a Subscription Demand > 5/24 Blocked Alert without Subscription!
20 Councils Still run [Twitter] Links > [X] Only 2/20 permitted Access to Alerts
9 Sites bothered to upgrade to [X] > Only 2/9 permitted Access to (Often 5 years old updates)
5 Accessed Vimeo / Apple / Google Play / Flicker / Pinterest

108 Extortion attempts to sabotage Premier's Alerts to ransom Subscriptions!
41 of these Extortion demands were mandated with no rogue doggie door allowed!
tbb has long reported worse Extortion Demands to Govt for over a decade...
Govt say Majority of Qldurrz subscribe to Facebook > Can do wot they like with Premier's Alerts.
Just 77/185 Govt sanctioned Attempts were allowed to freely reach the desperate frightened masses.
Ya may have read the News : " We never received any alerts...We never knew...(So now ya know why!)
Govts mandate > No longer get Alerts for free...Sign first...Wake up Qldurrz!

Were talkin' about Govts outsourcing privatization of Who Lives (vs) Who Dies (That Simple!)

Govt / Media Magnate's Message is Loud'n'Clear...[Subscribe or Die]
No indigenous or poor shire folk have info or Maps to reach Evacuation Hub Access
Poor folk / Disabled / Children are prohibited from accessing Subscribers Evacuation Shelters!
Like disaster movies where Little Jimmy's crutch fouls the Escape Pod door! "Extra Baggage...Bye Bye!"
Kick him in the face...Doors slam Shut...[X] Rocket Ship Touches down on brave New World! Hurah!
All know the Story...all know it's not Science Fiction! Very real deal already playing out in Qld! Now!

Poor wretched Souls pray their Govt BOM Alert Review will dig even deeper...to out these Monsters!
We decide which non subscribed wretched heathens get evacuated from facebook's Tax Free Shelters!

2024 BOM Alert Review (Continues)
Qld Mayor complaints
https://www.news.com.au/technology/environment/climate-change/gold-coast...
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/dec/30/labor-orders-revi...
https://www.facebook.com/9NewsGoldCoast/videos/1578067103045758/

*No Warnings / Late Warnings
*Warnings were too little & too Late
*Downplayed the serious nature of Weather Events by as much as 4x.
*Becoming a regular Pattern of unreliability during peak weather events.

Resulting in urgent meeting of minds over matter!

Wow! BOM is copping a lot of criticism and it keeps coming.

Ok! tbb spared time to review each'n'every ground level Disaster Dashboard.
This next level review is of each individual Qld BOM Radar "Peak Weather operational records".
Why Qld...Coz you'll quickly find it's nearly always a Qld problem...save the hassle!

First up!
Are Liberal Mayors simply ramping the undermining of Authority with local elections underway!
Exploiting power base to counter lowest Local Election Voter Turnout Apathy!
Fed Pollie Katter constantly undermines BOM to ransom more Radars for Cockies!
Qld has many more Radars co aligned with ADF priority ( Eg : Offshore / Horizon Radars )

tbb did check on back history and no shortage of complaints about BOM Radar being Offline.
10's seemingly now 100's of said Radar failures Often joked about by Farmers & Pilots...

Award winning typical BOM Radar fail (Qldurr Classic)
Dick Smith Pro Pilot Blog : [ Comply with CASA Frequency and Die ]
15 March 2016 Aerodynamisist : "What side of Charleville were you? I routinely get 124.8 within 70 or 80mm at 7000 or 8000 without having to resort to the Squelch. The Warrego Weather Radar Installation that Craps Out every time it Rains is a far greater concern. The only real Danger is going to the wrong Bakery once ya get there!
https://www.pprune.org/pacific-general-aviation-questions/576051-comply-...

If one reviews BOM you best be prepared for high level (60-70%) Spam in Google search!
ADF / Govt / BOM do not wish to draw attention to precise Install, Maintenance, Repairs of Radars
This review was conducted over a month/s as searches often lead to dead ends.

What amazed tbb the most is how little respect a Town pays towards #1 Iconic Utility of Importance.
Extremely rare for a Town / BOM / Wikipedia to reveal any install date of Iconic Radar Installation.
Seldom if ever is a Weather Radar included in any Town's History...amazing kick in the teeth for Science.
About as popular as a Vax Booster Hub on 100th Anniversary Covid wave!
Extends to Iconic Observatories / Bio Labs...(All these Boffin HQs fly under already invisible Radar)

Fact : tbb has much trouble convincing any / all residents of his Town's awarded Reedy Ck Observatory.
Never met one resident who believes Observatory ever existed let alone awarded Shoemaker Prize.
Reedy Creek suburb name The Observatory escapes them & developer's context...Wot! Dunno mate!
Sorry about yer lack of Emergency Frontline Review options!
It's sadly only tbb or none conducting a vital real time BOM Radar Review...

Radar Installation Date/s (Firstly near impossible to search, only then find 50% offer differing dates!)
BOM (Listing of all Radars but No install Dates)
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/info/qld_info.shtml
Wiki (Listing of all Radars but No install Dates)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia%27s_weather_radars
Tropical Globe (Lists most Radars with generic 1/1/....Calendar Year Install Dates) Please don't do that!
http://tropicalglobe.com/radar_database/list.shtml#aus

Credits : 30 year retro blogs / Sketchy tawdry guesswork BOM archives / Local News
Confirm all install dates were eventually established for purpose of review...simply request fav or all!

Goes without saying that BOM ain't sharing Logs of each Outage as many are Automated.
BOM Research starts 2006 -2014 (Extremely limited) 2015-2024 Outages increase each year!
Mostly due to Radars being fast tracked to now frontline real time public scrutiny.
Fair to say that Public are offered tier 2 Level access...not the whole show!
Research indicates 100's of outages but BOM usually only share CBD outages.

10 year (approx) Qld BOM Increased Outage List / Description
Day/s = Lightning Prevention+Strikes (20+) Peak Summer Season (Current)
Weeks = Repairs + Maintenance (10+) Many New Radars unplug as Cyclones approach
2 Months = Covid Delay (Set Period)
3 Months = Test Period (New Standard)
3-4 months = o's Parts / Expert Delays (eg: Seasonal / Flight Transit restrictions!)
3-6 Months = Combo Upgrades / New Radar (10+)

Notes : Common Complaint of outages times with onset of Rain Storms (Radar Offline)
We're talking same day prevention outage prior to approaching Storm. (Sure : Load sharing / shedding!)
More often the case with New Systems...that seems odd!
But it's most likely that new systems are not yet fitted with additional Lightning protection!
A good many have limited range by Directional Degrees or need to be narrowed.
Sure ...Coastal Radar have higher Sunrise-Refraction-Humidity-Hail-Bushfires-Migrations-etc

Feb 2018 #1 Bne BOM : String of Stormy Days > Outage > New Radar can't Complete Scans...
We're concerned with Frequency & recurrence of these outages & incomplete scans
o's dudes can return to fix it! ...goes on to say > Jap Sat is useful...(Pretty much sums it up!)

BOM do occasionally mention lightning damage...but more often state generic reason for repairs!

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-02-24/bom-rain-radar-mt-stapylton-offli...

Install Background : Radars are often set on higher coastal ground & Towers rise higher upon that.
Coastal is 50% higher lightning risk now add above 60m = 150% more Cloud to ground lightning.
Class 1 : Lookouts > Skyscrapers (Weekly) > Wind Turbines (Monthly) > Radar > Telco 3/4/5G
Class 2 : Planes > Ships Ports-Marinas > WW- Utility Plants > Poles > Chimneys > Air Con

Many BOM Radar towers are 100-650m metres high + Tower / Mast height rises
New Vert Laser pulses now penetrate Storm clouds....lightning traces these Laser paths
New experiments are now directing Laser pulses away from Radar utilities
https://www.iflscience.com/for-the-first-time-ever-humans-have-bent-ligh...
Whatever Skyward Cloud breach needs offset grounding but Qld top soil soon hits Basalt Boulders.
Best plans of new extensive grounding is stonewalled...now these frontline sentinels are sitting ducks!

New Radar Installations heavily rely on Surge Protection + Auto Power back up to prevent outages.
Where new or frontline Radars have less less Protection they'll need to shut down as last defence.
So we ever get pre storm data but then back up data...Explains the local data disconnect.
Alternatively all City Triangulation needs to unite to reveal Frontline Radar Shadow
So we see 40mm Rain Storm ramp to 200mm without exacting local frontline Radar to gauge it!
Also note most Capital Cities or ADF rely on triangulation + Dual Dipolar during Storm events.
By Triangulating Towers + adding US / Jap / EU sat sweeps BOM can auto fill in real time gaps!
16th Feb 2004 Seems like perfect timing that Qld / Bom just signed to Euro Copernicus Sentinel Sat.
https://www.business.qld.gov.au/running-business/support-assistance/mapp...
https://media.bom.gov.au/releases/1218/bureau-partners-with-european-cen...

As said...BOM ain't sharing premium Data...so only need to keep the freak show going during Storms.
Any lightning prevention > Results in less exacting real time Storm Data for Public radar & Alerts.
If ya all want real time Qld Storm Radar then be prepared to foot the bill for smoking Laser cannons!

Sure...any are free to dream up near impossible expansive grounding for Cloud Zapping Lasers!
Not gonna happen so...BOM need to protect most expensive vulnerable gear during peak Lightning!
Only they're obviously not obliged to hint of doing such as National Security demands Secrecy.
More so as BOM now engage EU / Japan / US sats.

Basically Qld Tropical Lightning Storms strike mostly BOM Radars so wot ya gonna do about it!
Most Radar Towers are being Automated with LPS surge protectors + Power Back Up...well durr!
Hot Tip...check Ham Radio blogs for grounding of Lightning Mast Strike disintegration...{Kaboom}

You start prodding lively Clouds with Lazers then expect a positive reaction...time to go! Outta here!
This should answer why this being primarily a Qld BOM cop out as you would...

Do any of the Mayors wanna play musical chairs with a real live electric throne?
Then why expect any fellow human to shield off Lightning bolts...not gonna happen! Get outta there!
World's #1 Air Force bases shut down during electrical Storms...
Ask! Why should only Flapping White Coated BOM staff fly Kites during Electrical Storms!

Anyhow the new Sat back up deal may have saved BOM from Mayor's Wrath.
So we Got Mayors / State / Federal Review of BOM...
Now with inclusion of big international players guarding frontline Space weather intel for our local.
Not much more tbb can share as it flies well over head by the minute...
tbb has no mobile phone so crew will need to review BOM apps...this be tbb's limit! Happy to share!

Great work again True Blue as hearing that Farmers are furious in Northern NSW as crops have been stuffed by inaccurate Long Term weather forecasts .

Apparently the Rain Fall monthly predictions. have been completely wrong for 6 months !

It does seem a strange Weather Pattern with a switch from El Niño to who knows what .

The BOM should NEVER withhold or manipulate/manufacturer historical data .

Why would they want 2 ?

What a Record Load of Council Rubbish.
Reedy Rapids have 2 Bus Stop 'Posts'...primarily for revenue raising...(Standard outta town rort it is!)
tbb thought to clear under the bridge before the rains come...perfectly natural thing to do!
https://www.urbansolutions.net.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/097-Entry-R...
tbb catches the bus often enough to know it's the Ghost Run apart from school kids!
Bus Stop Garden (Hidden on near side in above Photo)
tbb uncovered a Tip of 40 Large Water Bottles / 2 umbrellas / Bike + usual bong + muck!
Local neighbouring lass Lourde was shocked & brought tbb a glass of water while clearing it...Cheers!
That's important > tbb had only started 300m back from the car...But worked up a Thirst!

Said it's common to 'dig out' 10-40 half buried Grog bottles / bongs etc at Local Bus Stops.
Less so 40 mostly large near full fresh water bottles from a School kidz / Ghost Bus Stop!
tbb last cleaned the ravine 6mths ago, little Bus Stop litter existed...now this remote stop is trashed?
Crew can easily examine the photo...neat as pin...right!
Lourde says they need a Bin...tbb replied a sea of rubbish around an empty Bin is even more rubbishy!

We counted 30% or a dozen Local Wollies Label while it took ages to empty 40 bottles...
Just a couple of Bottles along 1km footpath back to the Shop or up near Steep Rise or Creek banks.
In fact tbb scaled & trolled under whole creek bridge on purpose before rains...without one bottle! Cool!

Easy to blame wasteful precious teens being dropped off or some Drive-by local teen tosser/s
Yep! Us Hodads were quick to blame the Teens but tbb was not so sure...this is alien to local behaviour!

Lourde said something interesting > The Council Ranger/s is there most days Fining cars @ Bus Stop.
tbb vouches for #1 Cleanest Goldie Creek being a beautiful picnic spot with zero parking. (Typical!)
Ok! Ranger also needs to Park elsewhere safe like Nearby Childcare centre that tbb just tidied around!

Now this starts supa stoking a red hot [Locals Only] Blowin Theory!
So this is GCCC Ranger's outta town go to Cash Cow > Pulls into shops for Smoko > [P] @ Childcare.
Depending on Lunch / Weather takes his drink for the 300m walk from his car... to his Work Site!

GCCC Memo : Hot Thirsty Work...Hydrate / Shade > Out in the Sun filling out Tickets / Photos etc.
Just enough to swill half & have a perfectly ideal private VIP drop zone to access or leave behind!
In fact...tbb actually believes the Ranger stores his umbrellas on his Tip site for Sunny / Rainy days!
Confirm a few Lunch bags amongst the Stash...Bus Stop Garden is likely the Rangers go to Pit Stop
Also reckon the Locked Bike that's forever there is a Back up for (Dual outta town Rangers! All good!)
Like if he needs to pedal home during Peak Penalty Targeted Season...shared vehicles...
Noting Rangers are outsourced > not fully certified Council Perks! Ya get min vehicle resources!

tbb's magic touch > If Grubby Ranger tries this trick again...his face will turn pale...
Wait until it rains...(Giggle!) Where's me shit pile! Where's me Umbrella...I've been robbed by a hobo!
Ranger will instantly freak that Cams are zooming on him...Fark...for how long? I'm fucked...lose me Job!

Double Check / No local bosses this Ghost Stop other than School Kidz...(Big Bottles..never seen that!)
Thought to drive up to Observatory then back down to rule in/out any weird-arse tosser theory...

OMG! The roundabout/s were again trashed with fresh rubbish..only just cleaned up there weeks back!
Observed that the Wheelie Bins were out (Bingo!) Thought about that some more...Gotcha!
All owners carefully balance weighted bins up the Rise > Truck operates on a Steep Slope!
Think about it? Off set Rubbish remains at bottom corner of all bins along these super steep Roads
Either Truck Arm, increased Higher Winds-Vehicle winds topple lighter bins over with residual trash.

Even if ya hired ya best Driver...it's the slope that topples remaining residual waste each & every time!
Result being these 2 rising roundabouts will be forever trashed unless serviced on the Level! Got it!
Right...Sorted that Mystery...Now to roll back down the hill to double check any tosser theory...

Even cruising down the Hill...No way can an Olympian target & score same 2m circle patch 40x over.
Patch would stretch for longer parallel with Road = 2m wide x 10m long with full heavy bounce trail.
Also knock thru the berm on the bounce...(Rule this out straight away...Impossible!)
No Olympic Nerd could remotely orchestrate this Targeted Pile with Drones & why...(Can't happen!)

This is a deliberate on spot litter Bug requiring On the Spot Fines (Check familiar Job description!)
Everything points to importation of large bottles to out bound Bus Stop from nearby same side [P].
Any other train of thought stretches imagination further from the obvious truth there for all to see.
Alien Reverse Chaos Blowin theory...not a Local & points to VIP exempted importation of payload!

Fact remains these Rubbish tips perfectly time with our servicing Council Employees.
Q : Do they simply drive-by each Pile each time never once informing their Council Litter Hotline!
tbb surmises both know a little bit too much about the timing of each fresh rubbish deposit!
Blowins are least likely to report on mysterious habitual local litter bugs that don't exist!

Roadside Tradies dump 100's Signs/Cones/Tyres/Spray Cans/Tape/Gloves/Dockets/Coffees/Beers.
tbb builds roadside trash monsters outta all their shit + Trolleys / Hubcaps to ensure they collect it.

tbb has better things to do then report on timetabled Tradie Litter Bugs trashin' our town.
Simply by cleaning up their Mess...will they know they've been busted & will live with the shame!
Locals say to report them the druggies etc...Blah Blah Blah..Council are the ones do in it!

Litter Bugs can only come clean by example...tbb can just as easily make examples of them!
As in Supa Creepy Town Entry Statements...Hello...Remember Me from Last Summer! CRASH!
Be surprised how often tbb applies this subversive tactic with rewarding results for our town.
Once the Litter Bugs know you know...they naturally come clean...works well for over 30 years now!
Keep up the Tidy up & you'll lead by example...more inviting it becomes the more they come around!
tbb rewards Blowin Tradies doin' the right thing & get a few toots...Ranger will get a rude awakening!
Not in tbb's town...pretty sure he'll get the hint & will better respect your town when he fines you!

Crew may be shaking heads at #1 Goldie Roller Disco
#1 Lousy Team Sport City keeps bagging endless WR haul of Olympic Gold Medals...(Bedazzling!)
Doubt very many Cities can match Goldie for World Titles / Olympic / Games Medals per capita

Oz #1 Playground Resort Gig rigs up Racers/Swim/Oar/Surf/Skate/Cycle/Golf/Tennis/Bowls Medals
Ok! Escape to Paradise & shape yer own Dream Destiny...all eat our Pies in the Sky!

But this seemingly new rush of BMX / Skateboarding Gold Medals.
Like how does Goldie Boss that shit...
C'mon...wotz the Trick! (Ya really wanna know our secret!)

Goldie local tbb shares the Background on how & why this impossible dream becomes a reality!
tbb has authored 2 Papers on Goldie Skating / Skateboarding linking to Trick Bikes

# Universal Playground Gold Coast in central to all Gold Medals.
# All Gold Medal Teen's Dads were born US/UK + All Mums are Japanese / SA .
# Kids were born elsewhere raised on Goldie by Young Parents attracted to US / Jap / SA mixed City.
Now! That's yer first tip ( Ya gotta park that & Pipe Up!)

Goldie generational order from UK > US > NZ > China > Viccos > Jap > SA > NSW
Goldie Gold medal Mums next wave likely be from Brazil > China > India > Filipino > Korean.
Mostly as newer #1 Regional City Goldie attracts a higher o/s mix pop towards lively Sports.

GC Towns > Streets > Buildings > Businesses pride Names from these Nations & welcome more!
Newest fastest worldly seachange hub seeds wealthy families into new VIP seachange Olympics
Bollocks to yer Oldschool institutional Team Hierarchy > Blue Sky is our only limit > Fly High be free!
All the above were never born here but locals & all gladly love to label a Goldie Gold Hero!

WSL (10 year Review)

Unrivaled strategic seachange fortification.
tbb has little choice but to conduct the review as an informative tech timeline
As this writes itself tbb is least able to offer insight...so ya get a straight dose.
Don't like it then don't shoot the inventory guy...just see & know the time is right.
Only know all this tech transforms into a WSL monster far removed from Surfing!
Only a matter of time before Govt will conduct the same reviews and are already!

Part 1 (Drones) Exclusive WSL Priority Certification

* Inventory of international Security Defence Outposts
* World Game Park Gatekeeper surveillance
* International Tourism Gateway Promotion
* Premium Seachange Real Estate Promotion
* City Wide Hi Tech Live Event rigged Gaming Arenas
* Copyright of top secret City Wide Aerial / Event Imagery

2014 WSL Takeover prioritizes Drone Trials / Approvals (See above Frontline Seachange List!)
Shark Mitigation is the pretence.

2015 WSL Drone Broadcasts live from Oz / US / Hawaii / Tahiti / Fiji / Brazil / Portugal / France
https://www.goldcoastbulletin.com.au/lifestyle/beaches-and-fishing/drone...
WSL Vice Prez : "Ain't no one has ever gotten them Live Links!"
Then, all but one Venue : " Huntington Beach US Open of Surfing! (Why!) see June 2024 US Govt ACT.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/innovations/wp/2015/09/11/world-surf...
Drones may use a 3rd party (see next) and operate via Radio Frequency to enable live cross.
https://www.cio.com/article/242270/drones-and-vr-give-pro-surf-league-fa...

2016 eg: Europe WSL hook up Atlantic Drones > (2024 South Pacific Oz / Fiji use Platinum...)

2016 City Council Insurance is instrumental in securing WSL exclusive Aviation Gateway Priority
WSL argue "Live event Logistics in a Sharky Game Park is Paramount!"
Base level argument is...if yer city wishes to run a sporting event in a game park, then we're yer guys!
https://tracksmag.com.au/the-inside-word-on-drones-438550

WSL are handed the Keys to Hot Wire frontline security to every city...
WSL Event override : Aerial Shark Mitigation + Shark Net repositioning + Sand Pumping Levers
Free council work gangs to hook up gateway Live IT defence logistics.
Wot option does a Mayor Have : (Exactly! A Shark ravaged Torso of a G String Chiko Chick!)
Fear is the Key!

April 2018 : WA Surfers Point is a case in point...Shark is spotted near enough to cancel proceedings.
Local Council > "Please...What do ya want...we'll do anything"
WSL : More of everything + More Drone Fleets...Said NOW!
WA site requires extra Radio Relay Network...(Can check with 2023 WA Apple Watch signal fails)
https://www.news.com.au/national/extra-drones-on-watch-for-world-surf-le...

Dec 2018 : Hawaii : WSL obtain Godlike US Aviation override powers.
WSL Chopper flies low into over crowded Comp Line Up to ward off a rogue Drone.
Nuthin' apparently...WSL can now attack illegal aliens & Sign Post as Gods to keep off their Planet.
https://stabmag.com/stabcinema/wsl-water-patrol-vs-unauthorized-drone-at...
https://stock.adobe.com/au/video/drone-shot-wsl-surf-championship-crowd-...

Pause : Crew may be excused for thinking so What > Think about WSL precedent of flying over crowds!
Exact same time Drone Pilots were flying into crowded stadiums...each testing authorities.
Jan 2019 : Asian City Drones now Dust City Crowds with untested Brews
May 2019 : WA hook up State Fisheries IT to tricode Live Heat drones...
Crew may recall seeing a WSL Yacht positioned between Outer Buoys & Finalists to lock in signal.

June 2019 : J Bay Drone Spots Shark & Delays Comp ( 30mins-1hr Becomes Standard )
https://www.facebook.com/WSL/videos/kp-shark-call/2367183663554892/

Nov 2019 WSL Japan QS Comp has 7 US women surfers...all very normal...
1-3 Jan 2020 CDC meet at White House to discuss Coronavirus
6 Jan 2020 : WSL China Corona Outbreak Pro Comp...( Zero US women competitors!)
Jap m26 w7 + Oz m16 w11 + France m9 w3 + Haw m7 w3 + US m6 w[0] Where are US Chix? Huh!
https://www.worldsurfleague.com/events/2020/wqs/3468/corona-open-china/r...
Sharing that CDC may have informed WSL > Resulting in ALL US Chix aborting Coronavirus Comp.
7 days Live YouTube Hainan Drone Webcast + Tourism Ads...not one mask > 1 wk later C19 Wave hit!

Ok! Maybe now the crew wake up & see the WSL Drone Threat to National Security is off the Charts.
No pros surf China's shore ever again after WSL Drone aired their Coronavirus Live Event.

Ironically this same Pandemic prioritized greater WSL Drone surveillance powers over spectators.
Later Drones triangulate code from Towers / Boats / Jetskis / Helmets / apps to distant Lineups..WA
Jan 2022 WSL add Official Helmet Requirement+ Jan 2023 add Official app to be worn...(Gaming!)

June 2022 Henet Drones that act as Record Wave Height Buoys verified in wave pools
Ironic that all discount Stand Up surfers of small wooden pilot craft of past Nazare Tsunamis...
Also several past SUP Wave Pilots surfed Larger Nazare waves that wiped out the Town.
Not one of 2000's Motor assist 'WR' Waves have ever breached the Town...(Just humour them!)
Respect past Nazare Biggest Wave Slave Surfers & stop peddling these fake WR ai yuppie surfers!
How about if ya surf a Nazare Wave that Wipes out the Town ya get one hand on the record.
https://www.surfertoday.com/surfing/the-drone-that-measures-waves-accura...

May 2023 : WSL expand into Clubbie Drones for CS > Gold Coast Pro + North Narra Sydney Pro
Hot wires WSL Chinese drone network into Sydney Airport Matrix!
WSL GC Pro (Powers) now franchise Drone contract to SLSA subbies for 179 Flights / 660kms
https://australianuavs.com.au/may-2023-update/

May 2023 : NSW / WSL now franchise Surfing Australia Drone Exemptions

WSL now franchise Coastal Surf Clubs / Board Rider Clubs with #1 National Frontline Security!
Greatest ever Defence security breach ever beams all Latest NSW Defence outposts to China.

Jan 2024 : Judging with Drones
https://www.theinertia.com/surf/drones-revolutionize-surf-judging/

June 2024 : WSL Brazil drone show tracks apps + facial Bio scans staring at WSL Logo in the sky!
Most of these Drone Shows disguise tracking drones that scan the attentive kooks...Please scan me!

*Drone D Day.

June 2024 : US House intro "Countering CCP drones ACT" [ HR 2864 ] To ban all DJI Drones
Concerns that Drones are beaming US defence logistic upgrades to China.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DJI#:~:text=DJI%20manufactures%20commercia....

WSL beams China thermal Maps of world's largest inventory of US Defence Bases
eg : Pacific Air Shows Huntington / Gold Coast = WSL Frontline Drone Mitigation...(Bingo!)
Chinese web cast : (GC WSL Booth : New Aukus Osprey Hang...we'll spin the rotors in a minute!)
US Prez : "WTF is this show...is this beaming live...for last 10 years ya say! FFS! KILL KILL KILL!"

US Govt believe WSL have a silent Googly Comrade sponsor of the AUKUS / NATO bases Tour
Takes no time at all for China to clock Sea Change Surfie Hangs are leashed to local Defence Bases.
Exactly the same Ports they need to drop off free Vax Aid...and all know this is how China operates!

Either WSL are too stupid to see that Surf Jock Hero Precinct moonlights as Seachange Defence Port.
Perhaps WSL do know but defiantly choose to beam Commies the Co ords to Clear Comp Line ups!
It's over here....we marked it out with our Rip Curl Buoys 54321 {Kaboom}
All Clear...no more Jocks'n'Kooks...Xiexie Comrades! Surfs Up!
Think the Prez needs a Combo.

Eitherway > How crew view Surf Comps will soon change! Once WSL Spy Drone Squad is grounded!
https://www.surfer.com/news/drone-ban-hr-2864-affects-surfing-photo-video

..........................................................................................................................................................................................

July 2024 : Olympic / ISA Drones rig up Tower sponsored Team France Medals.
Aug 2024 : Google take over IOC's Le Jewel in the Crown for 70 Years...Thank You!
Aug 2024 : Larry's Googly Tower of Power hooks up Chinese WSL drones (Check!)

Summary...Well...it's pretty obvious to the crew!
China/Google/Apple/IOC/ISA/WSL don't support US banning their continental Cable/Drone rorts.
Not our War...sleep with any illegal alien as we choose...FU!

Another Point being the Drones need to integrate all RFID Range.
Authorities may confine Drones into smaller arenas...away from Port/ Fleets
Each new WSL tech limits the range of each other > Needing a near Tower Hub in Confined Arenas.
Consider the betting market moves fast...Drones will need to relay & edit more than Film long rides!
As said...we may see more Edits resulting in more Gaps in live coverage...delayed scores.
Olympics exampled Drone Judging & crew did notice the cut telecast & gaps in event...
Reckon that's the road we're heading down...more Drones less ride time & less coverage...Got It!

Reason for the 10 Year Review writes itself...Crew can see 10 years is Up...
Govt are gonna conduct the Drone Review...so ya got one goin' on right now.
Wanna know more...about Planned or inevitable US WSL Drone bans
https://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/shopping/like-your-dji-drone-tell-th...
https://droneadvocacyalliance.com/

This being part one in the series...no need to like or subscribe as it writes itself...Ok!
Feel free to add or question any tech entry...tbb mostly offers social or Surf Comp implication!
tbb wishes to add this Tech driven review is not that easy to source but it drives WSL Policy.
So if ya feel there are gaps in the timeline then that's how & when WSL wish it...Ok!
If tbb comes upon extra > will try to lever a back link in future parts if it evolves as such...All good!

WSL 10 Year Review Part 2 (RC Surf Helmets) will also intro them notorious Rotten Apple Watches

WSL (10 year Review)
Unrivalled strategic seachange fortification
(Addendum) Super Hero Surfing Powers
tbb made 2 specific points (Review writes itself & includes extra worthy WSL foundation!)

Reason being tbb wished to better value Surfing's Frontline worth alongside Defence / Navy / UN.
So before we can move on...tbb feels we must address...Surfing's finest hour buried in the mud.
Climate Change dictates & reshapes Surfing's Frontline above that of Olympic Sporting Heroes

Saltwater Women Taught Gromz to Bodysurf, Dive & Fish heavy inshore Lineups even into the night.
Men folk constructed a raft of canoes to Dominate Waves & Trade Vice & Chix thru all Seven Seas.
Saltwater canoe people often rescued Deep Water Ship Wrecked sailors washed upon sandy shores.

Wretched new coastlines were soon patrolled by Saltwater locals training newbie Pilots then SLSA.
Man's commanded Angry Sea Clubs banned women from swimming in waist deep & touching surf craft.
All these Surf Clubs headed Surf Beaches & near all got washed into the angry sea.

It's no secret that these Ironmen challenge & whip up angrier seas with more remote boys toys.
Navy / Lifeguards / Clubbies / Boardriders gotta fuel & smash angry sea = Chix can't Surf > Surf Rage.

Climate Change closes resort beaches & Rivers run wild now consuming populated upriver Towns
Clubbies then shit in their Caps on RSL Bars while turning noses up a stinky swift water rescue. Yucky!
State Emergency Rescue Crews wished they had a few Clubbies or their dry docked 50,000 toys.
Swiftwater drowning tolls needed to hit double figures before our Ironmen burped at the bar!
SLSA finally got the message & now squeak a Rubber Duck up river...whatever muck sticks...Salute all!

This gave rise to Pro Hodads of Husky Boyz Toyz orchestrating swiftwater YouTube Rescues.
tbb don't say that lightly as near all on this list end up as Movies...crew may know more about that...
Not gonna dwell on more surf sticker history...Dear diary...rescued 100 with no Smoko!
Can be excused for letting this slip by as it's not documented on events calendar but eclipses all.
So tbb will lay out the exclusive timeline for crew to research in what order or add more even!

April 2018 Hawaii Surfer/s rescue Flood Stranded Locals and Critters + Go Fund me
April 2019 (20 Ottawa Surfers) Rescued Flood Victims
March 2021 Qld/NSW Clubbies help out in floods
March 2022 Goldie /NSW Champ Pro surfers Jetski Flood Rescue Crews & Aid Relief (Ongoing)
Share lesser reported Champ that called out pathetic Fed /State response & poor deployment of ADF.
https://www.smh.com.au/culture/movies/surf-champ-helps-flood-victims-as-...
March 2022 (500 Qld/NSW Clubbies) Step up to volunteer in Flood Rescues
Nov 2022 Abu Dhabi Civil Defence spits out Surfboards for 4 / DIY rescue > 12 boards per vehicle.
Sharing this to show many aren't skilled watermen & do it their own way...whatever it takes...all helps!
https://www.thenationalnews.com/uae/2022/11/22/uae-rescue-teams-look-to-...
Jan 2023 NZ Clubbie Swiftwater Crews rescue 100's from Cyclonic Flooding
Aug 2023 Hawaii Bush Fire Pro Surfers Jetski Rescue Crews & Aid Relief
May 2024 Teahupoo Pro Surfers Jetski Flood Rescue Crews & Aid Relief
May 2024 Brazil Rowers/Pro Surfers Jetski Flood Rescue Crews & Aid Relief (Includes WSL Pro Comp)

As said tbb feels it's valid & important to share such timeline if incomplete...sorry for that also.

Culminates with Reports of ongoing unheralded 10% of Surfers performing a Rescue each decade
Each Boardrider will likely rescue 3 troubled ocean goers during their years surfing!
With almost half the boardriders felt that they had saved another's life whilst surfing!

Not that unusual as Bodysurfers near flags often assist [L] boardriders tombstoning & losing boards.
Note bodysurfers often pulling kids out of rips, gutters & collapsed banks, comes with the territory!
Anchored plenty of human chains to reach out & pull in packs of exhausted plucky teens.
Just putting all of this in perspective as all equally ignore local heroes who walk off without thanx!
So we gotta credit all rescuers equally...not just VIP's with Boyz Toyz...but it is worthy to note all/any!

2019 US Army engineers conduct onshore (vs) offshore wind wave tests at Kelly's Ranch.

Aug-Sept 2024 World Surflifesaving Games Gold Coast 6,000 competitors 18 days over 3kms

tbb thinks & even knows there are many more Defence Surf Comps...but search is limited in this regard!
Mostly as it's part obscured as a backer...not to scare locals with main sponsor tag!

Further upon this...Navy Vessels patrol comps > WSL Teahupoo / El Salvador Pro armed Naval Guards.
Guess it depends on autocrat leaders!

WSL Airforce Shows of Low Flying Squadrons dusting Beach Crowds now Eye in the Sky Drone Shows
Huntington / Saquarema & soon likely Goldie WSL Comps promo frontline Military Jock Parades.
All are open Defence arrangements in prime seachange havens...
No doubt that councils approve WSL / Defence trials of Aerial herding / Dusting / Tracking of locals.
30,000 Litres of Toxic Goop dusted over beach flocks & Whale migrations over 3 days is now standard.
Not one word from any...all proud to pay $50 to be mass poisoned & tracked for life...life's a beach!
Where did siss go...she was last playing battleships in the ADF Beach Beer Tent Gamer Hang.

ADF militarization lockdowns & mass poisoning of Seachange City beaches!
WSL are inviting & taking on more Defence duty with Defence bullying city beach surf school comps.
Recapping that lines are blurring between Defence & Surfing Frontline Climate Defence / Duty.
Defence now boycott Floods & Civil Clubbie / WSL crews frontline Climate Defence

However...US Defence is now drawing a line in the sand...(New Rules!)
Gotta lock out Made in China Boyz Toyz from our Wild West Stem Cell WMD Slave Trade Empire.

Tower of Power Judge's & Bookies RFID / Drones / Jetskis must not tip off Chinese Mobsters! (Oopsie!)

tbb was hinting at this association & thought it needed it's own chapter before moving on...which it did!
WSL must surely expect further engagement of Defence will end in further Drone IT Restrictions.
Guess tbb is sharing that although it seems Drones rule our world, there is a line in the sand!
WSL have pushed that point in time faster & closer than it needed to be...now sand is being kicked...

Readers can see it was right for defence to hit the breaks & conduct the Drone review!
Crew can see that tbb has equally flushed out the same timeline to share this surf community review!
Writes itself it does...all cool with that...tbb is simply clarifying what we hear on the grapevine.

WSL (10 Year Review)
(Part 2 a) Fashions in the Field

Equal CT Prize Money (Formula)
Crew will view charts with wildly favourable Women's higher earnings...this is industry standard.
Govts mandate 60% women in Health / Sports / Olympics to boost healthy fertility.
To do so demands high risk exemptions > Less competitors / Hts in highly injurious costly Tour sports
Facilitating longer & higher cost for legals, insurance, offspring- care & recovery time.
One should read Women's prospective offspring calculations...as 40-50% for each female competitor.
To be upfront...WSL is obliged to accommodate 50% of Competitor's future or conceived Tour Child.
