Low folate was found to be the common cause, why pregnant women are told to take folate. Preventing Spina bifida, cleft palate etc

As Richard said, considering all that can go wrong in a developing foetus, we should be more amazed how many are born normal

AND ITS GETS WHAT?" our property at Gilgandra is trisected by the Newell Highway and another road. cant even move feed with the tractor from one paddock to another if its on the other side of the road now? been in drought for last 5 years. hubby's ute has transported so many round bales its axle lost the plot and collapsed bringing another load on the way home recently no one with animals has any rights anymore old Australian Truck Driver’s Group. Kings Forman · postrnodSe31h337ui24m61f5237hl59h10307m5c05712hmlm50157falf3 · A VICTORIAN farmer fined $398 for carrying two bales of hay on his tractor forks across a road to feed sheep at the weekend will contest the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator action. Condah farmer and hay contractor Graham Thomson said the NHVR fine was “very heavy handed” and it meant farmers across the state have been acting illegally by transporting hay on tractors across roads to livestock during the drought. “Every farmer is breaking the law as soon as they put a round roll or a square bale on those forks to go across a road. “The fine was worth more than the value of the hay.” Mr Thomson said he owns four separate titles with livestock surrounded by roads in the Condah area, but was told by an NHVR officer he would need to put any hay bales on a truck to transport hay on a road. Fellow farmer Andy Satchell said the fine was “way over the top, totally impractical and completely unnecessary.” “It is just showing how over-regulated we are as a society. “Everyone is doing the same thing to feed their stock,” he said. “It just shows the complete disconnect between city and country too.” He said the fine came as farmers were fighting the emergency fire services levy and on the same day as a mental health day for farmers at the local Condah Hotel. Mr Thomson said he was taking two bales of hay on his tractor about 600 metres down Fleece Road and after checking there were no vehicles in sight, across the Henty Highway, before being stopped with flashing lights and a siren by an NHVR officer. The farmer was told he was not allowed to cart anything on a front-end loader on a public road, and that it was an expensive fine but he would be fined for having bales on the front of the tractor “not restrained.” “I’m meant to have a load binder over them. “I’ve been farming for about 50 years and I didn’t know that,” he said. “I didn’t say anything, but one minute he says I can’t carry anything on the road and then he books me for carrying something on it that’s not restrained. “So that didn’t make sense to me.” The offence recorded was ‘Driver of a heavy vehicle that does not comply with the loading requirements – MINOR Risk Breach. “It was very heavy handed,” Mr Thomson said. Mr Thomson is a life member of the Australian Fodder Industry Association and has about 400 phone messages from people across Australia after Mr Satchell made his Facebook post. “I’ve got about 300 people want to go (to court) and back me up – it’s being contested.” The post had been shared 589 times by 2.30pm today, had about 380,000 views and generated more than 130 comments, mostly sympathetic and urging him to contest the fine. Polite commentators branded the fine as “ridiculous”, while others branded it a joke and “absolute bullshit.” AFIA president Louis Kelly said was aware hay loads on a truck or ute it would need to be secured but he had not heard of farmers being fined for transporting hay on tractors. “It’s a stupid rule, I’m not in favour of it at all – I’ve never heard of it before.” “I’ve seen so many tractors on the road with hay on them, does that constitute a truck or a ute?” Mr Kelly said he had been working with the NHVR on standardising road rules. “What are we going to do here, stifle agriculture altogether? “How is this going to work?” he asked. “As far as I am concerned, Thommo’s in the right to feed his animals, but if someone challenges him on how he ties his load down on a tractor which is registered as an agricultural machine, I just think that’s a bit different.” Sheep Central was told the NHVR regulates all heavy vehicles with a gross vehicle mass or aggregate trailer mass of more than 4.5 tonnes, including livestock and agricultural vehicles. The Schedule of HVNL Penalties, Infringement Penalties and Demerit Points 2024/25 (PDF, 403KB) provides a summary of the penalties and infringements outlined in the HVNL. This includes breaches of mass, dimension or loading requirement, where a minor risk breach carries a minimum fine of $398 fine and a more substantial or severe breach may see a maximum penalty of $13,310. The NHVR said agricultural vehicles, such as tractors, are permitted on the roads if the driver and vehicle comply with all jurisdictional and Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) requirements, such as holding the correct registration and access permit, as well as safe restraint of the load.

From all sides isnt it. not just our dogs being targeted so are we. good luck folks O and how many times have you had to do a click the whatever to prove your not a robot? to a computer program who wont give u access until you do? Shades of Terminator future? O and dont be fooled, Barnabay Joyce and David Littleproud drafted the legislation that created the Water Trading Scheme, whereby the irrigation farmer can no longer buy their water from the government, they have to buy it from water traders and now twice the price once cost. Who profits? the Water Traders and who are they? Majority Chinese investors and the families of Barnabv Joyce and David Littleproud. Thanks to implementing it during the worst drought in memory at the time it send thousands of dairy farmers already being strangled by the $1 a litre milk off the edge to bankruptcy and being snapped up by corporations, ending generations of family farms. Liberal is wings of the same bird as Labor. Littleproud was computer savy enough to create the offshore water trading company himself and then hand over to the family so could not be charged with profiting from his legislation. No idea who created Barnabys, probably advised by Littleproud how too though. Traitors to the people of Australia, sure are. most of the farms sold are now overseas owned, increased china's holdings to 5%.

Barnaby Joyce dospteSnro7t89769aJ56 u4a172a6l m5n1le0tf72lg7ft5252 0uh5:h1 · How do you pay off a trillion dollars in government debt when you are smashing the economy by an impossible jihad to change the weather called Net Zero? Answer, you pay it off with someone else’s savings. The trillions that Australians were told were safe in superannuation is the solution. Since its inception under Paul Keating, we were told superannuation was sacrosanct. It was to cover the fact that it would be impossible for the Government to properly pay for retirees an amount of money that could sustain their standard of living to a reasonable level. People were told to trust the Government their money was safe. But now the Government, rather than acknowledge super was to pay a cost that the Government couldn’t cover, are covering the cost of further Government expenditure which the superannuant never had a say in the spending. Compulsory superannuation was guided by accountants who were given the remit to legally minimise your tax. There is no nefarious purpose in people transferring or buying assets for their super fund. The Government said we had to have super and the people invested in their super fund. For many on the land the assets that they placed in their super fund was the family farm because this is what they were advised to do by their accountant and their accountant had no knowledge aforethought that this would be a very bad idea. But the nasty bitey bit is coming now thanks to the Labor Party. Many farms, if they can provide a living for the family, are worth vastly in excess of $3 million. But farms are like a third parent. With most family farms there is no intention of selling them, in fact it is looked on as failure or treachery if a family member sells the farm out of the family. Once a family farm is sold it can never be bought back. As the globe is not creating more farming country and as the population of the globe races towards eight billion people that can’t properly feed themselves, the value of land and farm produce is going up. In fact, farm land has been appreciating at around 18% per year. This is just a figure on the books because there is no intention of selling the asset, however the Labor Party is going to tax Australians 30% on the increase on the book value of an asset even though it hasn’t been sold. So, let’s go through the figures. $5 million for a farm that can support a family is not unreasonable at all, in fact it might be a bit light-on. Now, if this farm is in the super fund then an 18% increase would mean an unrealised capital gain of $900,000. If $900,000 is taxed at 30% that is $270,000 that family has to find to pay Dr Jim Chalmers. If a farm worth $5 million could make a $270,000 profit they would be genius farmers. Not only is it one-off, it could be every year including droughts. As corporate farming buys out family farms and overseas buyers buy out Australians without any government wanting to do very much about it, family farms are going to be pushed further into the history books of Australia. As farms become bigger the number of people supplying the market for your food becomes smaller and inevitably makes the price of food larger. This combines with a bat poo crazy idea of Net Zero emissions by 2050 and further restrictions on how farmers operate their farms to placate the great god Gaia and his environmental policies which exacerbates the cost of food you see in shops today. Remember everybody ridiculing me about my claim there would be $100 Sunday lamb roasts because of environmental policies such as the carbon tax, with lamb selling now at over $50/kg in the shops you’ve got it. Remember when I lost my job as the Shadow Finance Minister when debt was around $100 billion because I had the temerity to say if you keep spending money on the trajectory you’re spending it the gross debt will race through half a trillion dollars and all the wise sages from the Secretary of the Treasury to the Governor of the Reserve Bank chuckled at how silly I was to say such a thing. Well, it’s now gone through a trillion dollars and I’m still waiting for them to pop their chuckling heads back up and say they were wrong. So, here are two things, one we should not start doing and the next we should stop. We should not start doing the raiding of superannuation to pay back government debt. If you need to pay back government debt you do it by having an economy that has the capacity to service the debt and repay the principle, otherwise you should never have borrowed the money in the first place. Number two, if you want an economy that can service a debt and repay the principle you must remove this ludicrous and dangerous attachment to a social policy that will have no effect on the weather but will merely inspire the faux virtue one gets from aspiring to the impossible Net Zero by 2050. If you pursue Net Zero you will never attain Net Zero nor change the weather but you will blast the economy out of the water. If you go in hot pursuit of Net Zero you are a fool and if you take someone’s savings you are a thief.

Its a bloody mess added to that is take details to council to log and get told "we dont do it any more, you have to go into the pet registry yourself and do it" then try and cant get in. they have created a new one and the program or whatever it is, is a nightmare to negotiate. Have to ring the help line every time, except, no one is there during lunch time. they shut early...... so your window to actually get help is bloody narrow as well ask for the transfer of ownership paperwork and get told you have to log in and download and print it yourself govt doesn't supply them anymore?????????????? meanwhile pollies wages go up and up. taxes are going through the roof and now they are even going to tax the super???? while big business of course pays ZERO TAX!!!!! Its only the mug voters unrepresented and taxed to the eyeballs to keep the bastards in the manner they intend to be accustomed too. meanwhile busy making so many laws anyone with a pet is heading underground to evade the ever more strangling PETA drafted legislations designed, not to "protect" our pets. But designed to send them and every domestic animal species extinct which is the real PETA agenda. what a bloody, blasted mess Meanwhile every member of the ankc is still busy chanting, "we have to get rid of unethical breeders and puppy farmers" still too stupid to twig the only ones being targeted for elimination is to PETA, and our zombie politicians doing their bidding, that's it's them, the chanters, the self appointed thought police, hounding fellow members whose only crime is dont march to the accuser's drum.. ???????????? Billy Connelly must be laughing his arse off as for the other people who created their own pet registries, RPBA, MDBA along with all the rest they too are a visible target same as ANKC. as Richard said. its increasing obvious he was so right. our pets will only survive thanks to the underground people who stay under the radar. .

ah so the idea is to track black market puppy farmers????? hullo what part of the majority of dogs impounded ARE NOT MICROCHIPPED will they ever realise? how can they "track" un chipped dogs or cats? when two of my puppies were stolen years ago. unknown to the thief both were already vaccinated and chipped. one i got back within days, found wandering a six lane highway. rescued and scanned by a local vet. the second I spotted advertise for sale on gumtree. the lady had bought her from an online sale site, she was told she was neither vaccinated nor chipped. considering she paid 500 for a pup normally worth over 2500 she bought her. the reason she was advertised 5 months later she was being transferred back to japan. (I recognised my puppy Fire, because of her unusual markings.... the disturbing part was this lady had not taken her to a vet to be vaccinated or microchipped because she considered she didn't need to be as she lived in an apartment and could not get lost.... She sure got a shock when I ran the scanner over her and showed her the chip no. think on that. how many are the same? well the figures for all the unchipped dogs turning up at the pounds shows a vast number of people dont care a fig about microchipping and probably vaccination either how many DECADES has it been law now???????????

EXACTLY Its one country, ONE DATA BASE but then pollies have not given us a lot of confidence about their intelligence except when it comes to taking good care of themselves the latest decision to tax super. so much for having already paid your tax. now in additions they are intended to tax any increase in value of your land, in the case of farmland farmers could be facing over $100,000 in tax, based solely on how much the value of the family farm has risen the previous tax year????? they will be taxed on the value its risen? yet they have in fact made nothing from that. unless the sell the property??? so farms been in the family for generations will have to be sold to pay the extra tax, that's the only way it can be paid since the west is in such drought stock are being sold for next to nothing as they cant feed them anymore. so no income to pay tax on but now have to pay tax on paper value???? so the corporations can buy for a song, overseas companies can buy for a song and of course our farmland is gone from the families on the land to corporations who of course our pollie's are happy that they pay no tax because our pollies drafted the laws so they and their accountants dont pay tax do they? either be HUGE, preferably foreign owned or they will tax you into homelessness what a great nation australia is not.... anymore .

Are koala's been removed from indigenous list now. 1,000 shot from the helicopter gunships in Victoria.

problem is no more humane politician's or department employees

Are U serious? Did they alert rescues? NO. They sent the helicopter gun ships. Previous targets, over 3000 kosiosko Brumbies. To shoot the koala's Considering how many Brumbies were left to bleed to death, just because Steve Coleman can pronounce "humane euthanasia" doesn't make it true. If you think being shot from A helicopter is humane. The shooter can't see from that distance if the shot females have dependant young in the pouch or clinging to them

Not necessarily wild dogs Remarkable how many "let the dog/dogs out for a run" They don't leave a calling card, in every instance around here when shot it's either wearing a collar or someone comes looking for their "lost dog

no humane solutions, they shot them from helicopters, last figures I heard was 1,000 from the two scenario's, the fire damaged area and the gumtree plantation harvested

ANKC sell a copy of a book charting their evolution, even mentions Hilton Sinclair's Berrilyn dogs, he mentored me and gave me Debbi for my daughter and started me on Purebred ACD's stumpys are seperate breed.

many vets cant cope, its a tough job, a hero when you save, a monster when you lose a patient. even when successfully saved can be pilloried over the bill.... my vet/friend of 50 years now and nearing 80 has lost way too many friends , has affected him badly over the years. My daughter wanted to become a vet, but didn't even last 2 weeks of work experience at a busy practice. she was shocked how many perfectly healthy pets are brought in for euthanasia and how many owners refuse when the vet offers to find it a good home if they sign it over instead?

The Diana effect? Hound people for headlines. Recently a vet killed himself after being criticized about a horse he sedated and was coming too. It floundered towards him and kicked it away or something like that. The attacks so bad he couldn't cope

Gee one was rude, demanded why haven't her humans on a plane already to pick her up, citing she would. As to the press invasions. Obviously no lessons learnt about rights,

The photos I saw on the brumby page were koalas in a commercially planted gum plantation being clear felled with no effort to remove them first. My grandfather 's business in 1940's was felling for timber and firewood. He NEVER cut a tree with a koala in it. No one was allowed to harm a koala Tragic isn't the same now!

still. others reading the advice can take note for their dog. so not wasted time replying

although line breeding is so maligned, when there is a sound line the results can be very successful. as well line breeding was used to dna profile long before the technology was developed to find dna markers .

Finally some one stating it to all of Australia. If only they will listen if only parliament will listen and act to remove not only their "charity" status but all the grants being handed to them. Support the real charity's and rescues. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1131590691942607

What gets me they are calling a x bred a "breed" O my giddy aunt! aka " 'He is an extremely rare breed of dog and looks exactly like a wolf. This breed has not been sold in the world before." Plenty of wolf crosses, just that those who has them never thought to ring this git up to sell him one...... Although they aint safe around humans long term, in many instances.

ALL the above and anything teefie accessible. toys will be appreciated BUT unless you also give puppy its own play area supplied with its own toys. its too young to understand the things that are off limits. so dont set puppy up to "fail", create its own play pen area for when you cant be watching non stop.

To quote MOOSESMUM EVERYONE...... "Could start by joining ACA (ANIMAL CARE AUSTRALIA) Not just breeders, but state bodies, for a voice. And Stop discrediting breeders, weather they be ANKC or 'other'. There are solutions, but little support when the expectation on Breeders is they prove they aren't part of the problem, while there can be no real distinction between 'types' of breeders that can ever be claimed exclusively. You really do reap what you sow." IN OUR CASE all that's been sown for decades is distrust of anyone other than yourself in in too many cases for too long, the result is self destruction from within, wake up, its almost too late. I hope its not too late as that PETA rep said in 2020. Pet owners outnumber the AR nutter's by the millions. Registered breeders outnumber them by the tens of thousands when you count all the other registers combined, but are doing zero towards educating the public and the politicians to the AR nutter's lies and half truths! Hiding behind im ethical, im responsible, sure hasn't worked at all, has it? Still not one game to put photos of their mums and pups out of the whole 7,588 breeder members here? You think I wasn't scared shitless at speaking up? think again.
