Hmmmm. Can you spell unethical idiocy? AT BEST, the Iranian Liberation Nut-Jobs. AT WORST, another Israeli false flag operation. In the middle, the usual out-of-control lunatic covert action wanna-bees.

Robert Steele adds: if and when this becomes fully exposed, it will qualify as a “precipitant” of revolution, showing the public with stark immediacy the degree to which the US government lacks integrity as well as intelligence.

Fedor Dostoevsky: A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else.

Carl Jung: The maintenance of secrets acts like a psychic poison which alienates the possessor from the community.

Daniel Ellsberg speaking to Henry Kissinger: The danger is, you’ll become like a moron. You’ll become incapable of learning from most people in the world, no matter how much experience they have in their particular areas that may be much greater than yours” [because of your blind faith in the value of your narrow and often incorrect secret information].

And now the other headlines (updated 18 Oct 2011)

Jon Lebkowsky: ABC Allows Truth for a Few Minutes

07 Other Atrocities, Blog Wisdom, Cultural Intelligence, Movies, YouTube

DailyKos blogger Jesse LaGreca was eloquent and focused on ABC’s This Week this morning. I want to post the conversation about #OccupyWallStreet featuring Jesse, and come back a little later with my own thoughts. To the question, “What is your plan? Are you going to harness this into a political movement?” – a question that keeps coming up, and misses how this movement is different, Jesse responded that OWS is really about “pushing the narrative that working people can no longer be ignored.” They’re not trying to be the politicians – the more important thing is for politicians to come out and listen to the people at OWS.

General Assembly is the New Town Hall, Cannot be Co-opted

Jesse La Greca on THIS WEEK! Updated – full transcript!

Phi Beta Iota: Neither the two political parties nor the corporate media get it yet. While Jesse did a fine job, he failed to drive home the key point. This is about dumping the corrupt electoral system and restoring integrity to the Republic beginning with Electoral Reform.

The Most IMPORTANT Video You'll Ever See (part 1 of 8)

2 million views for an old codger giving a lecture about arithmetic? What's going on? You'll just have to watch to see what's so damn amazing about what he (Albert Bartlett) has to say.

I introduce this video to my students as “Perhaps the most boring video you'll ever see, and definitely the most important.” But then again, after watching it most said that if you followed along with what the presenter (a professor emeritus of Physics at Univ of Colorado-Boulder) is saying, it's quite easy to pay attention, because it is so damn compelling.

Entire playlist for the lecture

Tip of the Hat to Paul Fernhout for the recommendation.

He has been involved in or co-founded eight Silicon Valley startups, ranging from semiconductors to video games, and personal computers to supercomputers. He teaches entrepreneurship at U.C.

Gorilla Kitten on Top — Koko the Reflexive

1 MILLION pounds of Food on 3 acres. 10,000 fish 500 yards compost

Growing power seem to have a winning combo going. I underestimated what they are doing. If the information in these videos is true then on 3 acres they are producing 1,000,000 pounds of food each year! How are they doing this?

10,000 fish
300-500 yards worm compost
3 acres of land in green houses
Grow all year using heat from compost piles.
Using vertical space
Simple 1 pump aquaponics

A packed greenhouse produces a crop value of $5 Square Foot! ($200,000/acre). That is if the whole acre was under greenhouse.

Phi Beta Iota: Just under six minutes of REALITY that industrialized mega-agriculture has sought to bury.

YouTube: Five Interwoven Economies

03 Economy, Collaboration Zones, Communities of Practice, YouTube

Five Interwoven Economies: Subsistence, Gift, Exchange, Planned, and Theft (or Conquest)

This video presents a simplified education model about socioeconomics and technological change. It discusses five interwove economies (subsistence, gift, exchange, planned, and theft) and how the balance will shift with cultural changes and technological changes. It suggests that things like a basic income, better planning, improved subsistence, and an expanded gift economy can compensate in part for an exchange economy that is having problems.
