Why Today's Fringe Is Tomorrow's Mainstream

How to Survive Our Faster Future
By Joi Ito and Jeff Howe

What do we do about the futurists?
For the last few years, the professional conference circuit has been overrun by keynote speakers from San Francisco, bearing job titles like chief optimist and commanding five-figure fees to tell us how lucky we are to be living in a glorious new technological era. From coast to coast, every insurance-sales and dental hygienist convention now features one of these puffy paeans to technology. Robots! Augmented reality! The Internet of Things! All of these innovations will leave us richer, happier and more productive, the futurists tell us, and why not believe them?
But futurism in the time of Donald Trump feels fraught. After all, the techno-optimists completely missed the signs of an impending revolution in their backyards: the spread of fake news enabled by social networks; the megaphonic power of Trump's Twitter feed; the rise of the so-called alt-right, a racist, neo-fascist clique that festered on 4chan and Reddit before emerging as a viable political movement. As a result, we fawned over self-driving cars and next-generation artificial intelligence while questions about the politics of all this new technology — the emotional backlash from manufacturing workers losing their jobs to automation, the interference of foreign hackers in American elections, the ability of partisan opportunists to flood Facebook with propaganda — went mostly unanswered.
In her book "The Signals Are Talking," Amy Webb, the founder of the Future Today Institute, gives us a sophisticated but fairly narrow view of the future. She limits her forecasts to trends in technology, since, as she writes, "technology is the unilateral source of nearly all of the significant things that have changed the world in the past 500 years." (There were a few wars in there, too, but let's concede the premise.)
To predict trends, Webb writes, you begin by looking to the fringe, identifying the misfits and early adopters doing bizarre experiments and tinkering with emerging technologies. You look for hidden patterns in the use of these technologies and apply a six-step rubric Webb calls Cipher (contradictions, inflections, practices, hacks, extremes, rarities) to analyze which ones are likely to catch on and reach the mainstream. Then, when you have a trend firmly in hand, you create a strategy to capitalize on the trend, and "pressure-test" that strategy before taking action.
Like most modern futurism, Webb's advice is directed primarily at an audience of entrepreneurs and executives trying to figure out how to stay ahead of the competition. But there is more to the future than making money, and "How will this trend affect my bottom line?" is, truthfully, one of the easier questions a futurist can answer. It doesn't take an oracle to predict that automation will displace factory workers, that Crispr gene-editing techniques will lead to a boom in pharmaceutical research or that drones will influence the shipping industry. Much harder is anticipating the downstream effects of these changes on a broader group of people, and it's here that Webb and her futurist peers often resort to hand-waving and generalities.
Webb cites Uber as an example of a transformational technology. The ubiquitous ride-hailing app succeeds, she writes, because it "leverages our basic human needs and desires in a meaningful way and aligns human nature with emerging technologies and breakthrough inventions." (And here I thought it was just the cheap fares.) Webb writes that Uber "might transform how we think about logistics — not just in the realm of taxis and black cars, but in how we move around people, packages, groceries, pets and just about everything else." She imagines a near future of agriculture in which self-driving Uber harvesters dig up crops on farms, place them into self-driving Uber trucks and automatically deliver them to customers. In this Uber-centric future, she writes, "a significant portion of the human-powered jobs in logistics will be obviated." She then moves on, as if the massive labor shock she has just predicted will produce nothing more consequential than robot-farmed rutabagas.
But wait. What happens when the 3.5 million Americans who drive trucks for a living and the three million Americans who work on farms get booted from their jobs by Uber-bots? What kind of social safety net might soften the blow of that kind of sudden mass unemployment? What kind of political movement might oppose the rise of a new, monopolistic techno-agricultural power? What are the ecological implications of putting food production in the hands of Silicon Valley tech companies? These are the biggest, most important questions, and the ones on which futurist thinking is most conspicuously absent.
In "Whiplash," Joi Ito and Jeff Howe apply futurist thinking to a broader set of problems. Ito, the director of the M.I.T. Media Lab, and Howe, a visiting scholar there, are more careful to avoid the kind of futurist fortunetelling that ends in discrete, falsifiable predictions. Instead, they put forth broad theories of technological change, accompanied by examples from their work at the Media Lab. The rise of decentralized crypto-currencies like Bitcoin is an example of "pull over push"; the runaway success of Scratch, a rudimentary programming language for kids, typifies the theory of "compasses over maps."
Ito and Howe — who, like Webb, wrote their book before the 2016 election and can be forgiven for their lack of clairvoyance — are generally optimistic about the future, which they believe will be governed by "emergent systems" rather than top-down rule-making. "Unlike authoritarian systems," they write, "emergent systems foster the kind of nonlinear innovation that can react quickly to the kind of rapid changes that characterize the network age." Left unmentioned is the possibility of a movement like the alt-right, which supports authoritarianism despite having highly reactive, grass-roots origins.
To their credit, Ito and Howe don't gloss over the dangers of distributing power to the masses. Nor do they engage in the hackneyed fantasy that our coming techno-utopia will lift billions out of poverty, free us from the burden of work and lead us into a glorious future of leisure and abundance. Justifying the value of alarmism in times of technological upheaval, they write, "Observing institutions of immense economic and social value stumble blithely into a buzz saw struck us as less dinner party conversation and more four-alarm fire."
They're right. In our uncertain times, the work of futurism is more important than ever and should be done by people with sufficient imagination about how things could go wrong. Dystopian sci-fi and TV shows like "Black Mirror" are a necessary corrective to the cheerleaders of Silicon Valley, but in the age of Trump, they're not enough. We need serious, thoughtful people to grapple with the implications of innovation and help us recognize the ways that new technology, if placed in an unstable political climate and seized upon by malevolent actors, could result in harm and hardship. The futurists can help us navigate the storms ahead, but first, they need to take off the rose-colored binoculars.

As a child, I can remember my mother and father tending to our vegetable garden and watering the many colorful and fragrant flowers that bordered our house in Connecticut. I love the tiny, upside down fairy cup blossoms of the Lily of the Valley, the delicate purple clusters of Lilacs, and the dried, papery white discs of the money plant. I rub them between my fingers and catch the seeds that fall. There, they also grow Marigolds, Zinnias, Morning Glories, Delphiniums, Crocuses, Gladiolas, Peonies, Forsythias, Tulips, and Hydrangeas, all of which now illuminate memories of my childhood home.
The garden is fenced in with a brick path along the center. I can remember digging it, finding worms and grub as we prepared the soil, and later, my mother and father collecting their bounty of tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, peppers, and lettuces. Certainly this isn't a farm, but we still live simply and happily, relishing nature in a small town. My mother hangs wet sheets to dry over the clothesline. In the autumn we pick apples, and in late summer, raspberries.
Part of the magic and beauty of childhood is the mysterious passage of time, known mainly through day to night, breakfast to lunch, or season to season — otherwise, we are timeless creatures able to wile a day away picking buttercups and lifting them beneath our sisters' chins, asking over and over, "Do you like butter?" My parents must work hard as they tend to the garden and the flowers, and yet I am unaware of all this even as I dig beside them with my little spade.
I am proud of my own family's little garden, even though it seems to take a lot more work and isn't quite as tidy or colorful as the one I knew as a child. I wonder if this is because I am grown, and I worry about such things now. Piper may remember our garden (and gardens to come) fondly. Her little hands are often reaching for unripe tomatoes or tearing off small pieces of kale from their stalks. Nature does seem universally compelling.

Commercial property and building inspections, also known as Property Condition Assessments are important for clients seeking to know the condition of a property or real estate they may be purchasing, leasing or simply maintaining.
Commercial property inspections are done on a case by case basis and may require a pre-inspection survey or interview to determine the client's requirements prior to the actual inspection.
Depending on the client's needs, and the property types, some inspections can be fully technical, requiring our team of specialty contractors to do in depth inspections of specific items, or simply a general condition assessment, utilizing one or two qualified commercial building inspectors.
Once the inspection or Property Condition Assessment is completed, a written report also known as the Property Condition Report, complete with pictures, is compiled and delivered to the client within an acceptable time frame. The property condition report may include items such as concerns observed and recommendations for repairs or further inspections that may be needed.
The types of commercial buildings that are inspected include but are not limited to the following.

If you don't want to live in major city centers but still be in proximity of them, then what about living in Meguro?
Meguro is home to many corporate head offices and foreign embassies and consulates.
Sport facilities can be found at the Komazawa Park. Since the park used to be a venue for the 1964 Summer Olympics, you can easily found facilities for any of your favorite sports from soccer to swimming.
The Komaba Park is next to the Komaba campus of University of Tokyo. The grounds of the park also contain the Museum of Modern Japanese Literature.
You can find many museums in Meguro such as Meguro Museum of Art and Meguro Parasitological Museum.
During hanami season, you can walk alongside the Meguro River to see beautiful cherry blossoms.
Though not trendy as Harajuku, Jiyugaoka is a cozy neighborhood with an abundance of fashion boutiques and stores. The neighborhood is perfect to adventure in, whether you're looking to shop or pursue less known places in Tokyo.
Meguro was voted as the fourth best place to live in Tokyo according to realestate.co.jp's 2017 survey. It is known for its relaxed atmosphere and many unique individually-owned restaurants. Indded, it is growing with more residential neighborhoods with luxury condominium buildings and single family houses.
Some popular residential neighbourhoods include Aobadai, Kamimeguro, Nakameguro, Jiyugaoka, Senzoku and Ookayama. Since it's located south of Shibuya ward, you have access to major city centers without compromising living space.
Additionally, if you are religious, there are many religious institutions in Meguro to accommodate your lifestyle.
Mainly the Tokyo Corporation railway lines run through the ward. The company has four lines: Toyoku, Oimachi, Meguro, and Den-en-toshi Line. The other line is the Keiō Inokashira Line.

It is no secret that young adults, commonly referred to as Millennials, grew up in a culture radically different from those of the generations that preceded them. Not only were school environments tailored to be non-confrontational and encouraging, but Twenty-Somethings also experienced one of the most impactful periods of economic and political turmoil in American history. While this has shaped many of their attitudes about inclusivity and relationship building, it has provided them with little preparation for the competitive, even cutthroat business world.
A new book entitled "Millennials @ Work: The 7 Skills Every Twenty-Something (and their Manager) Needs to Overcome Roadblocks and Achieve Greatness" by noted generational expert Dr. Chip Espinoza details the contrasts that mark this new generation of young adults. "Millennials @ Work" also pinpoints the seven essential skills that Millennials require to survive and succeed in the workplace. These include:
• Relationship building
• Getting specifics of work assignments
• Viewing the Big Picture
• Focusing instead of multi-tasking
• Integrating feedback
• Owning work outcomes
• Adding value to the organization
"Millennials @ Work" is intended to help ease Millennials into the work environment as well as prepare business managers for integrating these positive, high-energy workers into their companies. The book also includes a Workplace Readiness Assessment which helps determine the specific attitudes and opinions of new millennial employees.
Dr. Chip Espinoza is one of the country's most recognized experts on the subject of generational diversity in the business world. He has consulted with major organizations like Boeing, Microsoft and the Special Olympics. He has also served as a content expert for CNN, Fox News, and CBS Radio. Dr. Espinoza also was named as one the top 15 Global Thought Leaders on the Future of Work by the Economic Times.
Although Dr. Espinoza has completed writing "Millennials @ Work," this major work has not yet been printed. In order to complete this important project, Dr. Espinoza has sponsored a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter to raise $57,000 which will be used for printing and inventory, book launch and marketing. In return for your contribution, you may receive T-shirts, copies of the book, photo on the cover, personal webinar, or a keynote speaking event.

Collection Management Policy
The Collection Management Policy guides all activities and decisions related to the History Colorado Collection, including acquisitions, care, and use of collections.
We are unable to provide appraisals of the monetary value of materials offered as gifts, brought in for identification, or submitted for any other purpose.
The United States Internal Revenue Service regards museums as interested parties and appraisals prepared by them for gifts that they receive are subject to question. This is because some museums in the past were tempted to compete for gifts by providing high appraisals. Consequently, the Association of College and Research Libraries recommends that "to protect both its donors and itself, the library, as an interested party, ordinarily should not appraise gifts made to it." Most museums now follow policies on appraisals similar to ours.
When an appraisal is used for tax or insurance purposes, an appraiser must be prepared to defend his appraisal in court. This requires an expert knowledge of prices. We are not in the business of buying or selling on a daily basis, so we cannot provide current market information as appraisers can. Furthermore, appraisers often have much more extensive collections of price guides and related bibliographies.
Similar considerations apply when appraisals are requested for reasons not connected with gifts and tax deductions. Accurate establishment of prices can be a complex procedure, requiring a time-consuming search in auction records and price guides that we are unable to undertake.
Professional appraisers in your area can be located by checking the telephone directory under headings such as "Appraisers," "Books - Rare & Used," and "Antiques - Dealers." Other sources are the web sites of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America, The Appraisers Association of America, Inc., and the American Society of Appraisers.
You should expect to pay an appraisal fee unless materials are subsequently purchased by the appraiser. For income tax purposes, fees paid for the appraisal of materials donated to a qualifying charitable institution such as a museum are deductible within the limits established by law.

A SAFETY-conscious tourist crept into an unlocked apartment while the women staying in it partied on the balcony to leave them a hilarious safety message.
The man left the message on one of their phones, and was discovered only days later as they made their way home from the Greek island of Zante.
In the four-second clip, the man can be seen saying to the camera: "Be more careful with your stuff.
"If I can come in here anyone can."
Meg Corrigan, 18, from Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, posted the clip to Twitter with the caption: "In Zante a random boy came into our room because it was open, whilst everyone was on the balcony and left this video on docs phone, I am howling."
Meg Corrigan said today: "We actually didn't find the video until we were on the bus back to the airport.
"Me and my friends were all in stitches.
"The boy that videoed himself had been shouting at us the full week to shut our doors because it was unsafe, but mine and my friends doors were right in front of each other so we knew we would be alright.
"He must have just came in when we were all on the balcony and left us this."
Social media users noted that this could easily have happened to them while they were on their holidays.
Lucy_walden wrote: "Like that random lad who walked in when we were all drinking."
Keiran Zeb commented: "A guy came in our room, took a drink of water and left."
_hanxoxo added: "The amount of times we just left our doors wide open, this could have been us."

Working on Curacao or Bonaire: job vacancies and tips
Working and, more important, finding a job on Curacao or Bonaire may be an obstacle for many. On this page, we provide you with valuable tips for finding work and applying for a job. Read the information carefully!
Na Kaminda offers many services for immigration, including paving the way to find work and enabling you to work legally. We offer these services in separate modules.
ATTENTION: for 'aliens' (being non-Dutch or being non-American), different standards and procedures apply. In many cases, finding or accepting a job is useless before the application of your permit has been submitted and accepted. Please let us advise you. At this moment, applying for a job may be a waste of time and effort.
Many agencies and opportunities for finding a job:
Sometimes, Na Kaminda is regarded as a website for job vacancies on Bonaire or Curacao. This is not the case. Finding work on the island is your responsibility, but we can lend a hand! Sending us your resume is pointless unless we specifically ask for it. In some cases, we will ask around in for a job opening via our network, via our website, or via Twitter. We restrict ourselves to serving existing customers only.
If possible, we will make suggestions. Through various channels, we take notice of vacancies on Curacao and Bonaire and also through the grapevine and our network we pick up lots of information. Regularly, we hand on specific job openings to our customers when we know they are searching for a paid job in a particular branch. Check out the following options:
- check out our 'Links' page' in the left column '03 Werk zoeken' (Dutch page for the time being)
- visit specific groups on LinkedIn (e.g. 'Working on Curacao')
- check out the job openings in local newspapers such as Amigoe and a local website for vacancies
tip: Curacao is short-handed for staff in hotels, restaurants, and cafes at any level (from servers to management). Especially chefs are urgently needed. Moreover, there is a shortage of higher educated technicians.
Applying - Working | tips:
Finding a job on Curacao or Bonaire from The Netherlands or elsewhere, is not always easy. There are a few reasons:
- consider whether your plans are not too noncommittal. Leaving with vague plans may be very risky and end up in a disappointment.
- make sure your applications for work and residence permits are completed before you apply for a job, and, in any case, before you leave. If your permit application has been submitted, employers will take you more seriously. They can rest assured you will come over, which enhances your chances of finding employment.
- on a daily basis, we hear: "I do not want to deregister from my country yet and burn my bridges". Please report this to us soonest. We will help you with the various options, however restricted they are. We will support you fully in your situation.
The most favorable application order:
- first, arrange the application for your work and residence permit. We gladly help you out.
- get a feel of the available job openings and the favorable branches
- send your written application and resume to an employer
- contact the employer via phone (refrain from e-mailing only) for further details and explain your interest in the job (in some cases, a remote job interview can be organized, f.i. via Skype)
- purchase a ticket for an extra visit to the island and plan (job) interviews
- plan by phone and make appointments for various interviews with multiple employers when you do visit the island
- learn the basics of Papiamento language. This will open doors that otherwise remain closed. Also, upon arrival on the island, booking more lessons is beneficial to you.
- some branches are short-handed for staff; others are overrepresented. Get acquainted with the local needs and opportunities.
- consider starting your company and become an employer. Especially on Curacao, the opportunities and options are numerous. Na Kaminda can help you out.
- in many instances, local habits are different to what you are accustomed to. In the Western countries, it is uncommon to 'mix business with pleasure'. This works differently in the Caribbean (Latin-American) culture. Personal contacts and networks are crucial. During social gatherings and happy hours, many people get acquainted with one another and having a business meeting over a meal is very common.

Supergirl Movie Aims to Shoot in Early 2020?
We could be getting a Supergirl movie a little sooner than previously expected. We first learned that Warner Bros. was looking to bring a new version of Superman's cousin to the big screen in August 2018. However, DC Films has had a ton of various projects in development and since the studio hasn't been announcing their full lineup of movies, it's been tough to know which projects were going to be moving forward and when. But now we have word that Supergirl may begin filming early next year.
It was recently revealed via several reports that Robert Pattinson is going to be our new Batman. Buried within one of those reports came a little update on Supergirl. Apparently, the plan as of right now is for the movie to go into production in the first quarter of 2020, assuming everything goes according to plan, and assuming that the plan isn't altered between now and then. Interestingly enough, it's also expected that The Batman will enter production in early 2020, meaning both of these movies could be filming at or around the same time.
Last we heard, Oren Uziel had been hired to pen the screenplay for Supergirl by Warner Bros. his previous credits include The Cloverfield Paradox, 22 Jump Street and the upcoming Sonic The Hedgehog movie. No director, as far as we know, has been attached to the project yet, nor has anyone been cast in the lead role as Kara Zor-El. Should this production information prove true, we should be hearing more regarding casting in the very near future, as well as some frontrunners for the directing gig. Meanwhile, Henry Cavill's future as Superman remains in doubt. For now, there appears to be no plans to give the Man of Steel another solo movie and Cavill has since moved on to other projects. So perhaps that is paving the way for this Supergirl movie to become a priority?
Another very interesting wrinkle to this whole thing has to do with the Supergirl TV series that is currently airing on The CW. Melissa Benoist plays that character on the show, but Warner Bros. has been keeping the TV and movie universes separated up to this point. That's why Grant Gustin, who plays the character on The Flash, didn't show up in Justice League. Instead, it was Ezra Miller. Though, it's worth noting that we've heard in the past the studio would prefer to avoid having repeat versions of the same character going at the same time. So does that mean Supergirl could possibly end with season 5 on The CW? That's purely speculative, but it's something to consider.
For now, what we know for sure is the Joaquin Phoenix standalone Joker movie, which isn't connected to the DCEU, is set to arrive in October. The Harley Quinn spin-off Birds of Prey and Wonder Woman 1984 are both on deck for 2020. The following year will see both The Batman and The Suicide Squad hit theaters. This news was previously reported by Forbes.

Obama lecturing China about hacking and snooping? Shameless!
One of the key conflicts – at least in U.S. view – between U.S. and China over the last few years has been "cyber attack" and "cyber espionage." During President Xi's recent visit to the U.S., Obama has scolded Xi very publicly – and with much fanfare – that Chinese cyber espionage against U.S. government and companies must stop. Obama told reporters:
"I raised once again our very serious concerns about our growing cyberthreats to American companies and American citizens," Obama said. "I indicated that it has to stop."
"The U.S. government does not engage in cyber-economic espionage for commercial gain, and today I can announce that our two countries have announced a mutual understanding on the way forward," he added.
The U.S. has long tried to distinguish between economic and political espionage, and tries to claim the high-road that it does not engage in the former. But as I have commented before, that distinction never held any water under closer observation.
In the lead up to Xi's visit, there has been much posturing in U.S. media that the U.S. will hit back against China for recent attacks against U.S., including one against the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) that allegedly compromised the social security numbers of 21 million Americans, finger prints of 5.6 million Americans, among others.
China has long protested that it is the victim of wide-spread espionage … not a perpetrator.
Last week, Obama and Xi finally reached an agreement.
But there was no retaliation. Why? Read more…

SARASWATHY NAGARAJAN, The Hindu: Life & Style / Metroplus, 27 April 2011
Narayan, author of Kocharethi, the first novel by an adivasi in Kerala, and Catherine Thankamma, who translated the book into English, talk about the book and its place on the literary scene.
Literature on adivasis, shaped by perspectives of authors who may or may not have interacted or studied the tribals and their lives, could be romantic flights of the imagination or grim portraits about trials and tribulations of the tribals. Irked by these fanciful and wrong representations of his community, Narayan, a member of the Malaarayar tribal community in Kerala, took up the pen to write the first authentic novel written by an adivasi in South India. […]
At a time when tribals all over India are fighting a losing battle to preserve their lands and cultural identity, Kocharethi reminds us, yet again, how these children of the land were marginalised by the state, the establishment and organised religion. From proud farmers, practitioners of traditional medicine and guardians of the land, the tribals became displaced and dispossessed, dependent on the largesse of the State to protect their lands and, most importantly, their cultural identity. "Many of the incidents in the book are based on real incidents that I remember or what I garnered from my elders' experiences, especially what my great-grandfather recounted of his life," says Narayan, a former Postal employee. [..]
In the late Sixties many adivasis in Kerala began to vocalise their anger at the way popular culture represented the tribals in films and books. Letters to the editor and the publisher did not help. That is when elders advised Narayan, a voracious reader himself, to write a novel about his community instead of merely criticising what was there in print and celluloid.
"The misrepresentations were marginalising a marginalised community. I wondered what I could write about and that is when I decided to stick to what I knew best. So I chose to describe my life, upbringing and culture," says Narayan.
Thus was the spirited Kocharethi born. […]

Publisher's information: Oxford University Press (India)
The first novel by the first tribal novelist of South India, Kocharethi maps the story of the Malayarayar tribe in Kerala. Melding history with culture, the work portrays their many struggles: from possession and dispossession of land to the challenges of preserving myths, rituals, social customs, and belief systems.
Narayan, who wondered if leaves cried out when they fell to the ground, follows an adivasi couple through their childhood, youth, old age, illness, and death to present a vivid account of their elemental life. Drawing deeply from oral traditions to underscore the earthy tensions of an adivasi society, Narayan evokes Nature and the Great Spirits, unfolds the Malayarayars' changing perceptions of land and its ownership, and documents a way of life that is slowly fading into history.
In Catherine Thankamma's hands the translation retains the flavour and verve of the Malayalam original. The Introduction by G.S. Jayasree sets the context for the work and the in-depth interview with Narayan conducted by the translator helps chronicle the many changes that have taken place in the Malayarayar way of life. Accompanying illustrations bring to life the story of a community unheard of outside Kerala.
'Kocharethi, one of the first tribal novels, is a remarkable work and should be translated into other Indian languages.' —Mahasveta Devi

Readers' Ideas on Creating a 9/11 Tipping Point
Joe says:
Get the best 9-11 videos onto your local access tv channel. If you have to, start your own local access tv show to discuss 9-11.
Also, show 9-11 videos at your local libraries: schedule video nights.
Kevin says:
For reaching people who question Bush's policies
An efficient way to reach a lot of the right people is this:
Carry a bankroll of Deception Dollars whereever you go: http://www.deceptiondollar.com/
These are amazingly inexpensive if you get them in quantity. You can finance your purchase by "selling" them at antiwar rallies, etc. by offering a one-deception-dollar for one-US-dollar "currency exchange" -- telling people that "the way things are going, these are going to be worth more than real dollar bills pretty soon!"
Whenever you see a parked car with an antiwar, anti-Bush or libertarian bumpersticker, slip a deception dollar into the crack where the driver's door opens. The person will return to their car, see the bill, think "what the hey! someone's leaving me money?" take a look at it, and crack up. This experience will open them psychologically to looking at the information on the deception dollar. Marketing studies show that when people encounter new information in this sort of "coincidental" way they open up to it; and the humor/surprise adds to this. The really cool thing about
Deception Dollars is that it's "The gift that keeps on giving."
Unlike almost all other forms of printed literature, people will keep them and show them to other people--not wad them up and throw them away.
Those willing to put controversial bumperstickers on their cars are "opinion leader" types. For every such person, there are a dozen "followers" who will listen to what they have to say, no matter how controversial.
The biggest single obstacle to spreading 9/11 truth is fear of ridicule. Those self-assured enough to bash Bush and his war (or express congruent opinions) via bumperstickers are good prospects for 9/11 truth.
If the driver comes back while you're inserting the deception dollar, tell them they've won a "best umpersticker" prize and hand them the bill. This always gets a smile.
For reaching people who support Bush
First step: contact your local Libertarian party and go to their meetings. (They're close to the kind of Republicans who are open to our message.)
I went to the local Libertarian meeting two nights ago and spent four hours discussing 9/11. Two people were enthusiastic supporters of 9/11 truth, two resisted, and the rest were open-minded and leaning toward supporting us. They're going to co-sponsor Willy Rodriguez and Faiz Khan's visit.
James Ha says:
I take a black sharpie marker with me everywhere I go and write easy to remember urls on bathroom walls, bus stops, grocery stores, etc. -911proof.com - letsroll911.org - 911blimp.net - 911blogger.com - 911u.org - etc. - I write them on every bill of any denomination that crosses my path as well
EmptyGround says:
I am admittedly an eBay junkie and regularly sell (drum-related) stuff. I've started to just leave a web address like st911.org at the bottom of the item description even though it has nothing to do with percussion.
bb says:
Oprah should have the Jersey Girls on, if she hasn't already. That could be a tipping point.
[My comment: does anyone have connections to Oprah?]
Who else has creative ideas for creating a 9/11 tipping point?

Sound Fiction
"Hydro EP"
Moscow based Dmitry Filatov and Vadim Soloviev debut trancer release
Moscow based Dmitry Filatov and Vadim Soloviev make up the Sound Fiction collective. Here with their debut release on a UK label, they present Hydrolove a moody but uplifting prog trancer. Solarstone are big fans and put this track to good use in the opening section of their recent best selling "Destinations" Mix CD. On the flip side "Electronic Revolution" does some peak time trance dance-floor damage. Swirling analog crescendos and filter swept riffs clash with uptempo squelching basslines for this uptempo monster. Rounding off the 3 track EP is the vocal tune Sometime, here with a brand new 2006 mix.

[AUDIENCE] Theoretically, is it possible to have
inflation within bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies? In that scenario, what would it look like? [ANDREAS] Bitcoin currently [has] a rate of inflation
of about 5% [per year]. It used to be 12% [and higher]. It's gone down over time. Every ten minutes
[on average], new bitcoin were being generated, and there wasn't enough demand in the economy to
absorb that [before], so it had an inflationary effect. As the reward diminishes over time, that inflation
rate gets closer to zero and even becomes negative. It becomes a deflationary currency, simulating
a very scarce or rare [resource] like gold. which is part of the design characteristics of Bitcoin,
but not all open public blockchains have that. Other open public blockchains have
more inflationary monetary policies. You could do any policy you want. You could
have a monetary policy that is very inflationary. You can have a monetary policy that is
not inflationary at all, or you could have… a monetary policy so inflationary, you have 4000%
inflation a month. We call that Zimbabwe. [Laughter] It wouldn't be a good idea, but you can do it. [AUDIENCE] With all these cryptocurrencies
emerging and rising [around the world], would you- Is there a possibility for a currency war,
that we'll actually see in the world [soon]? [ANDREAS] Well, whether they like it or not,
digital currencies are part of the currency wars. The reason is because they did the unthinkable —
they give people a choice to exit the currency wars. That is the worst thing you could
do during the currency war. For example, in some places like Venezuela,
it is [effectively] illegal to mine or use Bitcoin. As you can imagine, as soon as the government
says that something is illegal and cannot be used, everybody stops using it immediately… [or not]. [Laughter] The use of cryptocurrencies in Venezuela
quadrupled. [It's because of] a really simple [reality]. You have a family; you need to feed your family. Your
government is giving you money that is worth nothing, is worth less than nothing tomorrow, and
much less than nothing the day after that. Or you can use this cryptocurrency,
which is illegal, but can feed your family. You [will] become a criminal [to feed] your family.
That is how humans make decisions. You're going to break one more stupid
law by one more crazy government. The currency wars are happening because,
in many places, governments are failing in their role… of delivering the fundamental functions of currency. Most of us here don't ever need to worry
about [the stability of our] currency. Currency is one of things that, when it's working,
you can ignore it completely; it becomes invisible. It's the fabric of society. You don't
even know that it is a technology. I go [give] talks, I tell people money is a technology,
and they don't understand what I'm talking about, because they've never thought of it that way. It's a language. It's a technology, and when it
works you don't need to think about it at all. But when it stops working, everything fails,
everything stops working; even the most basic… of functions that worked before fall apart, because
[currency] is a very fundamental part of society. What is the government's role in currency? Don't print too much of it. If you print
too much of it, its value goes to zero. Pay the debts when they come
due, don't default on that value. Allow it to be used and make it liquid so
that there's enough of it in the economy. [Don't create the] problem [where] I can't find the
currency, even though I actually have the value. Allow me to use it [for] international trade and trade
with my neighbors. [These are] four very simple things. I can list two dozen governments that are
breaking all forms of those rules right now, and that's why we have currency wars. When a government takes out 87% percent of all
the money in circulation, with four hours' notice, and says "It's not money anymore,"
that is a violation of those rules. When they print $100 trillion worth of debt in the
last ten years, that's a violation of those rules. That is actively stealing from your
savings to pay the government debt. When governments do that, you have currency wars.
What digital currencies do is, they give people a choice. Until now, they only had two choices:
say "okay," or fight the government. Now they have a third choice, which is really powerful:
[they can say] "bye-bye" and walk away [from the war]. That's one of the most powerful choices. When people have the choice to walk away from a mess,
that makes it less likely a mess will occur. Yes, currency wars are going to continue to happen. The difference is that now we're not talking about
currency representing a national identity, pride, religion, or being tied to a king, queen, or other important person. Now, currencies are constructs
that can be created by anyone. They may or may not have value,
may or may not have stable value. But they [are now a] choice. You can pick your currencies
like you pick your email providers and TV shows. Some of them will be better for some things,
and some will be better for other things. No one can stop you from making that choice now,
and that's a really powerful change. It's going to change the way currency wars are being
fought, by giving so many people so many choices… that the traditional approach doesn't work anymore. When a government creates a situation of hyperinflation
and this dramatic spiral of collapse in the economy, what happens is they take
the entire population hostage. They close down the borders, the country
becomes a prison, and you go down with it. But what if you can exit? That changes everything. [ANDREAS] Bitcoin is not taking
a side in these currency wars. Bitcoin is going to be the Switzerland even when
Switzerland is no longer 'the Switzerland.' [Laughter] Bitcoin will be the only Switzerland left standing,
because eventually you will have gold confiscations. Modi has been very careful to keep repeating,
'We won't be confiscating gold.' Yesterday, they announced that
they're going to be doing tax audits. Anything over a certain amount of gold — even if it's
hanging off the neck of a married Indian housewife, who are the holders of the majority of gold in the world —
will be confiscated and [taxed at] 60% What that actually means is, they [will]
be doing spot-checks on random victims, [who] are then going to be required to pay an
enormous bribe to those very corrupt officials… so they can simply walk away. And corruption marches on, [getting] bigger and bigger.
You do not take a political side in this fight. This is not about being pro-Modi or
anti-Modi, pro-Erdoğan or anti-Erdoğan . It is about being completely neutral.
Bitcoin isn't taking a political stance here. The only political stance it is taking is,
individuals should control their own money.

The vibe at Bucking Horse Ranch
Places to see near Robert's Land
If you stayed here and have some insider info for us, let us know!
I didn't get to stay there because the campground is up a very steep hill and our car wasn't able to make it up. There should definitely be a warning that you need a car with all wheel drive and/or a crossover or SUV in order to make it up. I did walk up the hill to the campground and it seemed beautiful. Just a warning to only go if you have the vehicle for it.
Bucking Horse Ranch was at a beautiful location and very close to Painted Hills, Mitchell and Ochoco National Forest. It is the ideal location. Our host, Robert, was friendly and accommodating. Also, Robert was very helpful in helping us find places to go.
After booking with Hipcamp, go ahead and call your host to go over your camp details. He has limited cell phone service out there and wants to go over driving instructions and other details before you arrive. If you don't call after booking or at least a couple days before arriving, you may not get ahold of him. After chatting on the phone with our host a few times before arriving, we had the information we needed to arrive there with ease. Try not to arrive after dark, for that will make it a bit more difficult when trying to find the place. If you aren't used to driving out in the mountains or back country roads, you are going to feel like you have been driving for FOREVER, but that is normal - keep going, you're almost there. There are green trail markers all along the way and they help tons in reassuring you are on the correct path. We have a 2WD Honda CRV 2002 model and drove it up the dirt path all the way to the top of the mountain without an issue, if you know how to drive your car, you can surely make it up here without an issue.
After many twists and turns and green markers, we found ourselves pulling up to the top of the mountain where we were told to camp anywhere. We drove up to the tip of the top and set up our camp there. We pulled some old volcanic rock together and formed a fire pit and in the distance looked out to mountains and valleys as far as the eye could see. The chilly October air gently danced around us as we set up our tent and got our fire started. We made tea and sat down together to watch the sunset. A lovely set of pastel pinks and purples painted the evening sky. In the distance a prominent volcanic type mountain stood, mesmerizing us with its' beauty. Besides the cackling of our campfire, there were no other sounds in the night. As the pastel shades of pink and purple turned into deep violets and indigo, the sparkles from the night sky started to shine through the atmosphere. The night sky was so crisp and clear, the Milky Way and a few shooting stars decided to make their presence known, we wish we would have brought a telescope.
A short walk down the hill, you will find two triangular structures jutting from amidst the earth. Upon further investigating, these intriguing futuristic structures are the outhouses. Super rad. I rate these as 5 star outhouses. There is not a sink or water spout, so bring in your own water or hand sanitizer. There is a large trash can available for use near the toilets, as well as a table area. There are no showers available here either, so if you are picky about cleanliness, bathe beforehand.
We did not have any cellular reception here, so make sure you write down your driving instructions before arriving and take care of anything else you need to get done using internet before coming to camp! Once you are here, you will love that you can be so disconnected from your phone/technology/social media - it's a serene place to go with a sweet heart or with friends.
*Call camp host after booking or call at least 2 days before arriving — He wants to make sure to go over everything with you and if you wait last minute, he may not have phone service at that time and won't be able to go over everything with you before arriving to camp.
- Try not to arrive after dark so that you will not get lost upon arriving
- Follow the green markers - they'll lead you up to the campsite
- -Great 360 degree views.
- Wonderful secluded mountain camp spot
- Nice little rocky fire pit area on top of mountain
- Great aesthetic design on the toilets
- No sinks or water spout // bring hand sanitizer if you are wanting to wash hands
- Table available for use
- Trash can available
- No showers
- No phone service
I enjoyed my stay at this campsite last night! I'm pretty new to solo camping and I felt very safe. It's secluded, really quiet, and gas great views. I called Robert after I booked for directions, as advised on the site, and he gave me some good tips and things to look out for on the drive up. I had the place to myself but even if there were other campers, there's plenty of space and flat ground to spread out and not see anyone else
Tried to call several times like the site says. Got a spotty reception call with Robert. After finding the confusing landmarks given to me by Robert (no signs). Made it up the trail (we were in a trailblazer) and saw a confusing sign just past a house saying that we were going the wrong way (I believe it said "Danger") so asked the people in the house for directions/if we were going the right way. She allowed us to stay on her property for the night so we didn't have to keep trekking up the steep, unsteady hill. So I can't comment on the site itself, but make sure you have a car/suv that can traverse steep, narrow, gravel roads and get clear directions from Robert.

The numbers are impressive, millions of customers across London are using quick and easy contactless payment technology to get around the Capital reveals TfL.
Contactless payments have been accepted on London Buses since December 2012 to cover Tube, tram, DLR, London Overground, and most National Rail services.
Mobile has played a major role in the contactless payment: More than 300 million journeys made in London using credit or debit cards or mobile technology.
According to the article, here are the new figures:
- More than 300 million journeys have been made using this technology since its launch in 2012, with more than a million journeys now made each day using Contactless.
- Nearly 25,000 new cards are used on the network every day, with 27% of all pay as you go journeys on Tube and rail services now made using Contactless.
- Customers are now also using other methods of payment, such as mobile device ticketing technology. Around 3.5% of all contactless journeys are now made using mobile technology, with around an extra 7,000 devices now seen on average every week.
- Since July 2015, more than 3.2 million journeys have been made using mobile devices on London's transport network. This is predicted to further increase throughout 2016 as more devices come onto the market and more people adopt them and other Contactless technologies such as watches and wristbands with Near Field Communication (NFC) capabilities.
More than a quarter of London 'pay as you go' customers now travel using Contactless payments

Work Party for Home Trust
On July 18th, thirteen regional and district managers of Wells Fargo Bank from around the state of Washington, descended on San Juan Island for a day of volunteering at the San Juan Community Home Trust's Sun Rise II neighborhood.
All wearing red Wells Fargo T Shirts, the group came ready to help wherever needed. The rainy weather in the days prior to their arrival meant that the plans to do exterior painting had to be revised. Instead, they scraped old exterior paint, taped off areas to be painted, primed stair risers, and taped down protective plastic.
They also painted a door and trim which had not been affected by the rain. In addition, a smaller group worked under the house of a current homeowner to improve insulation and air sealing.
It was a very busy 5 hours for these 13 good-humored and energetic volunteers, and the SJC Home Trust is grateful to them and to Wells Fargo for making this kind of effort possible—supporting organizations working to solve the widespread affordable housing problem.
Home Trust Executive Director David Gow, the staff, and the Board wish to thank Wells Fargo for their work AND for the $15,000 donation made towards their work!

In the second of the Focus Zone Series, Wes meets international model turned psychologist and
entrepreneur, Silja Litvin to discover her Focus Five.
Silja's story is remarkable, as she turned her back on a life of glamorous travel and parties in the model scene to retrain as a psychologist. However, when she realized she could not treat everyone that needed help with their mental health she created a fun app game called eQuoo, which actively helps players with their own wellbeing.
Today, Silja and her app are the talk of the mental health industry, with Silja splitting her time between Berlin, London, and speeches around the world.
WHO: in your life inspires you?
I really look up towards the Gottman couple. Drs Julie and John Gottman are pioneers in research and very good business people as well. Plus, their evidence based couples consulting is ground breaking.
WHAT: does your absolute achievement look like?
I would like everyone (in the world) to know that eQuoo, our emotional fitness game exists so that they can choose to either use it or not, but at least know that emotional and mental wellbeing is just a click away and that it can be fun.
WHEN: is the next opportunity to take another step in the right direction towards your success?
NOW. Always now. Every moment is a step towards growth and an opportunity to overcome challenges. If you're not working on yourself now, when will you?
WHERE: you've visited that drives you to achieve your end goal?
I always find myself coming back to 'me' to find more strength and drive than I had though I had. Constantly working on my personal development allows me to discover endless pockets of strength that allow me to keep going.
WHY: a memory of something you've done and WHY it pushes you to keep chasing after your dream?
While I was working as a therapist I was often disheartened and frustrated because I could only help a certain amount of clients at a time. Seeing people in pain, not getting the help they need was unacceptable. I was not scalable, so I made something that was.
