Quite some years ago I put in my book the assertion by a doctor that Osteoporosis was scurvy of the bones. Well, seems like there was more than a grain of truth to his assertion!

What Years Of Being Obsessed With Mitochondrial Health Taught Me About Blue Light: A Q+A With Matt Maruca
Today Matt shares with us how light drives mitochondrial functions, the science behind blue light blocking glasses triggering melatonin production, a high-level overview of the eye/brain connection, and gives us the 411 on blue light blocking glasses (spoiler alert: they’re not all created equal).

And This Is How You Spin Doctor!
No matter what side of the political fence you’re on, THIS is FUNNY and VERY telling! It just all depends on how you look at the same things.
Judy Rudd, an amateur genealogy researcher in south east Queensland , was doing some personal work on her own family tree. She discovered that ex-Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s great-great uncle, Remus Rudd, was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in Melbourne in 1889.
Both Judy and Kevin Rudd share this common ancestor.
The only known photograph of Remus shows him standing on the gallows at the Melbourne Jail.
On the back of the picture Judy obtained during her research is this inscription:
‘Remus Rudd horse thief, sent to Melbourne Jail 1885, escaped 1887, robbed the Melbourne-Geelong train six times.
Caught by Victoria Police Force, convicted and hanged in 1889.’
So Judy recently e-mailed ex-Prime Minister Rudd for information about their great-great uncle, Remus Rudd.
Believe it or not, Kevin Rudd’s staff sent back the following for her genealogy research:
“Remus Rudd was famous in Victoria during the mid to late 1800s.
His business empire grew to include acquisition of valuable equestrian assets and intimate dealings with the Melbourne-Geelong Railroad…
Beginning in 1883, he devoted several years of his life to government service, finally taking leave to resume his dealings with the railroad.
In 1887, he was a key player in a vital investigation run by the Victoria Police Force.
In 1889, Remus passed away during an important civic function held in his honour when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed.”
NOW, that’s how it’s done, Folks!
That’s real POLITICAL SPIN.

Witness K to plead guilty to breaching intelligence act as lawyer Bernard Collaery committed to trial
Have you been following the Bernard Collaery and Witness K case?
In short, Witness K was the lead in 2004 bugging of the East Timor PM’s office so that the Aus Government would have the upper hand in bargaining for natural resources in the Timor Sea.
Bernard Collaery, in his past life a conservative Attorney General for the ACT and well respected barrister, represented Witness K from 2013.
Both have been charged under the National Security Act and as such their cases kept getting held in secret.
Why?
Well as Human Rights Law Centre senior lawyer Kieran Pender submitted:
“The Attorney-General’s use of secrecy in this case is entirely undemocratic: it enables the government to concede in closed court that Australia spied on Timor-Leste while continuing to refuse to admit this publicly. The NSI Act should be reformed to better safeguard the principles of openness and transparency that are at the heart of our judicial system,” Mr Pender said.
