Be a Social Entrepreneur

http://www.alphachimp.com/poptech/images/30_David-Bornstein.jpg

The above internet address is an illustration of what a Social entrepreneur is.

Some of the most important ideas are: Find out what works and then share ideas!

Social change happens when Belief meets energy but needs blueprints.

Grameen Bank: Microcredit for poor people to start their own businesses: 42 million people worldwide.

Palmari Rosa Project: Electricity in Brazil's Rural Areas: Solar Panels+ electric fences
$15 a month(1 billion people can afford this)

Ideas need champions: Marketing and Organization are key!!

Be a Social Entrepreuneur: See vision, mobilize team, drive through adversity, think business and social mission, market and persuade people to join you!

Child Line: service provider, children as para-paramedics,adopted by India as national franchise, drives government protection policy, data tracks regional problems and patterns.

Use what is dominant in a culture to change it and to make it better: listen, share credit, think big, start small, keep going, get energy from "No"

Anyone can be a Social Entrepreneur. Find a need and fill it. Get educated. Make things work better. Get friends and relatives to help you help them and all their friends and relatives! Be innovative!

Searching for Truth

It's something we all do. None of us survive past about 2 years old without searching for the truth. Otherwise we would all die in some silly way like sticking our heads in a pail of water and drowning like many unsupervised children do each year.

Whether we realize it or not an adult who has searched and found enough truth guides us to adulthood. Without someone who has found enough truth no one ever grows up in the world the way it is now.

So as we mature into adulthood, this search for truth not only is about our own survival but it becomes more and more about the survival of our friends, our loved ones and even about the survival of the whole human race on earth and beyond.

So as a maturing or mature adult cultivating an attitude of becoming a full time or part time truth seeker might be the single most useful thing that one can do. As one discovers new truths, sharing these insights might personally, or online might be the single most important thing you can do ongoing in this lifetime.

Most of us have to work at various jobs throughout our lives. But this does not stop us in any way in our quest for truth. It is not necessary to stop searching where our parents or relatives did. If we are brave enough(and it is very necessary to be brave and internally strong to become a life long truth seeker) we seek the truth our whole lives and then share along the way with anyone interested what we have found.

Being a truth seeker might mean for you finding the cure for cancer. It might mean inventing a rocket engine or other device to quickly travel to other planets. It might mean becoming fully enlightened and helping all or some beings to be happy in their hearts no matter what circumstances they find themselves in. It might mean becoming a microbanker to help people in third world nations starts small businesses to give their families a better life. It might mean all these things or more.

Last night I had a dream and in this dream I was at a gathering of wealthy people at a meeting at an estate with Brad Pitt who was trying to inspire people to help starving people in various countries. I was surprised in the dream at his sincerity and amazed how well thought out this meeting was in moving people to become more beneficent that were wealthy.

Even in our dreams we can be searching for truth and even finding it there. We appear to be entering times that could become as serious as the Great Depression on earth. Each of us who is capable of it worldwide are needed to assure as many people as possible survive this present economic calamity on earth. Instead of billions starving to death if enough of us are searching for truth and helping in whatever ways we can then maybe only millions will starve to death. It is up to each of us to create a future in which as many as possible can stand to live in.

fiction?

When I designate what I'm writing either here or my other website at geocities.com I am trying to give you the most truth that I can from 60 years of hard earned experience in computer science, building science, intuitive science, world travelling experience, always raising at least one child under 15 years of age since 1974 experience, alternative experience, living in the country and building a house and mountain climbing experience, surfing experience, and meeting wealthy people and learning how to invest experience etc. etc. etc.

I am sharing my real time PHD in the school of hard knocks as well as 8 years of college with multiple majors from philosophy, psychology, anthropology and computer science. I'm also sharing experiences with holy men and women I have met with all over the world.

I use this designation of (fiction?) when I want to share the highest truths I can after being a truth seeker for all my life. It doesn't mean this has to be your truth too. It just means that I am speculating from my 60 years now of life experiences all over earth and soul traveling experiences not only all over earth but through many many galaxies. I learned to soul travel as a teenager after being told about how it worked as a child by my parents. Though they had these kinds of experiences too, I was able to find a way to control the experiences so they were less like dreams and more like lucid dreams(which are dreams that you are more the creator and controller of). For me, it is like learning to become a Co-creator with God which is what my parents taught me to do as a young child, teenager and adult which begins with right motivation, compassion for all beings past, present and future in all time and space throughout the known and unknown universe. By doing this, humans can move to amazing lives. This is my experience and from your point of view my personal opinion that you can either choose to benefit by or not.

fiction? is a way for me to more safely share the truths I have discovered in my lifetime. Most people on earth aren't ready for the truth in ANY form. Full truth all at once would make most people dysfunctional either temporarily or permanently. So when I write in this way I can shield people from the truth until they are ready? Whereas if they are ready they will know it and be reinforced. Know the Truth and the Truth will set you free!

The Sarah Palin Action figure Doll

Herobuilders.com has created an action figure doll out of Sarah Palin. They are a Japanese company. The figure wears a calf length leather trench coat with a white miniskirt with a black belt and a pistol holster on her bare left thigh.

The whole world is taken with Sarah Palin just like they were taken with the actors President Ronald Reagan and Governor Schwarzenegger of California.

Whether this helps the U.S. become a better, more successful and survivable democracy is very debatable.

Things Aren't what they Seem

I suspect that things aren't at all what they seem. I don't think I'm alone on planet earth in suspecting this either.

I had the strangest experience yesterday driving up 101 in Coastal California from Southern California to the Bay Area. On my way south I had noticed a very strange thing. A Bull was jumping and making a lot of dust on a hill. I thought to myself at the time, "Well. That was strange. Bulls don't usually do that when they are by themselves. So I went merrily on my way but left that strange thought in my head to rattle around there by itself.

However, when I was heading north I was driving through the same area and passed a tow truck, which was normal except there was no one driving the tow truck when I looked in the rear-view mirror. Then up came the strange jumping bull alone on a hill making a huge dust cloud on the way south. I had a very eerie feeling that these two strange things were related.

After thinking about these things overnight my conclusion was that likely military, corporate or future human alien technology was at work. I believe the explanation might be that the invisibility technology(things either not being there that are or appearing to be something different than they are) is in use in more countrified areas associated with military or corporate interests. What I believe might be going on is the slow reduction of the population of humans on earth. I sense that it is not about extinction but rather a thinning out of humans on earth.

I don't think the public will ever be informed about any of this. However, I now believe things are REALLY not what they seem. They used to be somewhat not like they seemed for hundreds of years. However, now I believe they are really not what they seem.

It takes me back to an experience I had years ago along Interstate 5 between Redding and Mt. Shasta California. Three things happened in succession within 3 minutes. First, a huge swarm of bees pelted my truck so I had dead bees all over my windshield. Second, there was a white government vehicle with a state license plate parked alongside the freeway. And third, there was an obvious silver flying saucer parked on top of a hill along the freeway. First, I just thought it was an airstream trailer because it was silver like that. Then I went "Oh My God! That's a UFO!"

This happened in about 1990 around the time I saw a similar or even the same UFO in the air above Mt. Shasta City at about 2000 to 3000 feet altitude above the city which would have been an actual 5500 feet above sea level because Mt. Shast is at 3500 feet above sea level. At that time the saucer was accompanied by 3 double bladed military type helicopters that were grey and unmarked. When the saucer as I watched it disappeared the three unmarked double bladed military type helicopters. After the ufo that was in formation with them stopped and they stopped with it the ufo disappeared and the three helicopters headed off toward highway 89 toward Nevada. After thinking about this incident for about 2 or 3 years I came to the conclusion that I had either witnessed a holographic generation from those helicopters or I had witnessed time travel because the saucer disappeared with no sound at all before or after the incident. However, the chopper blades were breaking the sound barrier which is what drew my attention to the incident in the first place. The cacophany of noise from the tips of 6 helicopter blades breaking the sound barrier was almost deafening.

Sarah Palin: Both interesting and scary

You really can't make this stuff up. Sarah Palin, a runner up candidate for Miss Alaska, was voted Miss Congeniality, like the movie. She was baptised in Beaver Lake, Alaska. Her husband won a 2000 mile snowmobile race. If elected he will be the first resident of the Vice Presidential mansion who could actually fix the heating system if it broke down. She and her husband might be the two most interesting people involved in the Presidential race since Obama and Hillary Clinton.

But then what about the separation of Church and state. These lines have already been blurred by President Bush. Are we ready to give up on the separation of Church and state? If so, electing Palin might be a mistake. Interesting and scary.

McCain and Palin if elected likely will be the permanent end to Roe vs. Wade because of all the Supreme court justices ready to retire. Are you ready for that?

.7011

One of the few happy notes in the American Economy is the upticking of the value of the dollar relative to the Euro. This not only means increasing buying power for anyone on earth with dollars, but also an increase in the value of dollar based stocks and securities in real terms because of the increasing value of the dollar in relation to the Euro.

Also, the final beauty of all this is people worldwide pulling their money out of oil futures and food futures and putting their money in dollars and dollar based securities. This allows poor people around the world to be able to better afford to buy food and to feed their families.

The end of Fanny Mae, Freddie mac next?

=&xml=/money/2008/09/07/ccfreddie107.xml

I wrote the previous article after reading several articles on this subject. It did not have to ever come to this. It has all been completely unnecessary. If anyone in government had been doing their jobs not of this should have been necesary.

Putting Fanny Mae which I'm told carries 1/2 the mortgages on private housing in America completely funded now by the U.S. Treasury is just another recipe for disaster for our country. How much more ridiculous can it get than this? The next President might have to be like FDR with programs like the Civilian Conservation Core etc. just so people can get work building bridges and highways like during the Great Depression so they don't all starve to death. All this is a travesty for American Government!!!

Slow March to Oblivion

Since at least the beginning of World War II, the United States has been the Goose that lays the Golden Eggs, Internationally. So, since we had the most stable economy in the world, more and more people loaned money to the U.S. mortgage market as a stable return on their investments. This all worked great as long as the value of housing and properties went up.

However, it is more complex than that. Because of high cost of labor in the United States, we were selling less and less overseas, so most of our economy was buying and selling stuff to each other. However, the basis of that is homeowners. If homeowners start losing their houses,it cannot stop unless A.R.M.s are converted to fixed loans and the basis of the U.S. economy goes into a permanent or semi-permanent free fall.

Nothing I know of but Adjustable rate mortgages that could have created this scenario. THIS DID NOT HAVE TO HAPPEN. IF SOMEONE IN GOVERNMENT HAD JUST CONVERTED ALL ADJUSTABLE RATE LOANS TO FIXED LOANS, NONE OF THIS PRESENT AND IMPENDING COLLAPSE OF THE AMERICAN SYSTEM COULD HAVE TAKEN PLACE. THIS IS A COMPLETELY ARTIFICIALLY CREATED COLLAPSE. IT IS NOT A GENUINE COLLAPSE. IT IS A FAILURE TO DO ANYTHING USEFUL BY OUR GOVERNMENT!!!

However, because it has begun and left to roll on for 2 or 3 years now, it may be too late to stop it now and the U.S. may be slipping into something much worse than the Great Depression. Most of the world except India and China will follow us into this morass. India and China won't completely fall because they like us can survive somewhat by selling goods to each other inside their own countries based upon property owners. Fancy that!

Seeing Angels

I'm writing this primarily for those intuitively gifted who have actually seen angels.
It is my perspective that Angels are a scientifically provable reality. However, the present way science is structured it would be difficult to prove their existence.

However, I can't prove to scientists that I know 1000s of things all the time before they happen and change peoples lives whenever I can so they aren't injured or die in these mishaps. I can't prove these things either scientifically. But I could name at least 100 or more people who would be dead now if I hadn't known what is coming and intervened and I know thousands who would have missing limbs, heads, or broken bones if I hadn't intervened in their lives. People like myself have been keeping people alive since mankind existed on the planet. I consider Jesus and all the Saints these kinds of intuitive people and better as well.

The most likely people to see angels from a scientific point of view would be babies and small children. For example, my first experience seeing angels was Arkangel Michael and his band of angels while I was about 2 years old sometime near Christmas 1950. I was sitting on my scottish Grandmother's lap on a padded rocking chair. She sang "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" and they appeared. The all had shoulder length hair Blonde, dark, auburn etc. They all wore different colored jeweled armor that extended from their wrists to their neck and from their bejeweled armored boots to their necks. They all looked at me and smiled like I was one of them. They were there to wish me well in my incarnation in a human body on earth. I was amazed as a two year old that they seemed to treat me as one of them and as a brother whom they would protect through my life.

Listening to my grandmother sing "Hark the Herald angels Sing" in her thick Scottish brogue I was completely amazed even at age 2. I knew this was a very important occurrence in my life even then.

As I grew older and saw Arkangel Michael the clarity of his face faded and I began seeing him as a lifesize oval of blue light. Other times angels come to me as flashes of colored light at opportune moments.

Obviously, you have to be someone who is intuitively gifted to have these experiences. Though anyone can cultivate these kinds of experiences it could be very frustrating for those who can't do it immediately. It might take for some a lifetime of prayer and meditation to reach these states of consciousness. So, for the most part I'm writing this for people who have these experiences, for people who want to have these kinds of experiences and for people who need to believe these experiences to be scientific reality in order to choose to stay alive even one more day.

60 years of cultural changes

People might say to you, "Things are better now than they were in the 1950s." Well, having actually lived through the 1950s the REAL answer is both "Yes!" and "NO!".

In regard to men and women getting along things are both much better and much worse simultaneously. In regard to one man being able to support 4 or more people things are much worse! In regard to women's liberation and rights things are generally much better for women but also in other ways worse. And in regard to men things are also both better and worse.

For example, a woman is less likely to marry a man only for money and destroy his life simply because she generally now has much more access to both money and education and jobs. Also, a man who has gay relationships is much less like to marry a woman without telling her about them because of the increasing openness in our society of such things. Also, he is more likely to tell her because he might bring her AIDS and kill her indirectly if he cares about her at all when he marries her. So, these are very good things. Also, if a woman really hates men now she is more likely to live alone and men who hate women are more likely to live alone and not destroy the lives of those they marry for a variety of reasons.

However, in some ways things were much better for many people in the 1950s. It was safer in general then and there was a much more feeling of order because vigilantism was much more common in actuality. However, this also caused many problems in many segments of society. Though law is obeyed more now in general, all people then enforced the law to both better and worse ends. Just like in the 1800s people took law into their own hands more in the 1950s and before.

Now, it has drastically changed and there are only now, hardened criminals and gangs and generally law abiding people. This has created more of a police state "Big Brother" mentality and polarized people now in extreme ways. This kind of polarization did not really exist in the 1950s, at least not in the same way as now. I would say the world now is about 100 times scarier culturally than it was in the 1950s if one eliminated the constant threat of world nuclear annihilation that one experienced 24 hours a day from about 1950 until 1989.

The problems with Russia and China now don't take us completely back to threats of world nuclear annihilation. However, the likelihood of small countries like Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and possibly India or Israel or Iran becoming nuclear craters has increased.

.7006

.7006 is the value of the dollar against the Euro. Since both the Euro and the dollar are floating currencies there is no absolute only relativity. However, since 7-2-08 when the dollar was only .6294 against the Euro, it means that relative to the Euro the dollar has gained almost 10% in relative value against the Euro. In real terms it means that anyone with dollars can now buy 10% more goods relative to the Euro. Also relative to the Euro if one had say 1,000,000 dollars in the U.S. Stock Market it means without any changes in their stocks their money alone is valued about $100,000 more since July 2nd 2008 relative to the Euro. This is also why people are taking their money out of oil futures and buying dollars and dollar based stocks which is also reducing starvation for the poorer members of the planet and helping to keep them alive and able to buy food and not starve to death.

7,000,000

If I did my calculations right and I base my figures on 7 Billion total people on earth, then it means that approximately 7,000,000 households on earth own at least $5 million dollars in personal assets each or 25% of all personal wealth on earth at present.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080904/us_nm/wealthmanagement_report_dc

When I was young and ignorant I used to believe that wealthy people were mostly bad. However, as an older adult having met many wealthy people, and educating myself, I have changed my opinion. If there were not wealthy disciplined people to help those less fortunate with jobs, education, survival, loans etc. most people on earth would have already starved to death. That's just the way pragmatic reality really is.

The Two Party System

Since I was born the Republicans have said to the Democrats, "You are ignorant and naive and you aren't paranoid enough." Since I was born the Democrats have said to the Republicans, "You are racist, rich, abusive and you only think about yourselves and your own wealth!"

You know what? Both Parties are right(and wrong). So, in the end the general populace has to decide just how paranoid they need to be given the present world situations. This is what makes the two party system work.

When the common people were the richest(when money went the furthest)(when one man could easily support 5 to 7 people even without a high school or college education. This time was the 1950s through about 1973 and the Arab Oil embargo. One of the reasons Blacks and women and latinos and American Indians and all other minorities got rights was that the country was very rich during this time. Most of the infrastructure in China, Japan, Russia, and Europe had been decimated in World War II and we were the ONLY major culture and civilization with our nation and economy still intact. So then the United States economy ruled the world and could do no wrong. This has all changed. However, most people over about 50 refuse to accept it because, "How could this have happened?" People younger that 50 realize the United States economically might be on the wane on the world stage. People over 50 kind of hide their heads in the sand pretending we are still rich by allowing our government to borrow to pretend they are still as wealthy as a nation as we were 50 years ago now!

The two party system isn't really working because they world has changed. Globalization has made our democracy and economy redundant. Until we face this change America will inevitably continue to slide toward oblivion. Neither the Democrats or the Republicans have faced this or are talking about this at all. Both are living an old FAIRY TALE that ended by 1980!!!

Imaginary Friends

Every religion every belief is saying to everyone else, "My imaginary friend(friends) are more real and more powerful than your imaginary friend(friends).

To take it to a much less offensive place let's look at the volleyball that Tom Hanks accidentally put his bloody hand on in the movie "Cast Away". Wilson the volleyball is in some senses more "real" at least in a physical sense that what many people believe in on earth right now!

However, what may be much more important would be to understand humans NEED to believe is something in order to sleep at night. Without SOMETHING to believe in people I see all the time becoming alcholics, drug addicts and worse, just becoming psychotic in paranoid fear of everyone and everything.

So believing in SOMETHING is necessary for society and civilization itself to exist at all. The alternative is back to the law of the jungle where everyone mates with everyone and everyone kills anyone else at the slightest provocation.

So, obviously believing in something is necessary for the common good. However, when ANY belief system is forced upon anyone from cradle to grave psychological problems and psychotic behavior and the future collapse of that civilization is in the works.

Since I have watched many atheists give up their religious beliefs and turn to alcohol or drugs, especially in college, I can see that everyone needs to believe in something. Therefore, through some are egoistic enough to worship themselves or someone else in the cult of personality as a substitute for religious beliefs, most people don't do well thinking this way.

So recognizing that people need to believe in something to just stay alive, especially if they are alone, like Tom Hanks in Cast Away, one begins to understand the full scope of the problem internationally.

As long as one group says "My way or the highway, people will be tortured and killed on opposing sides whether people are on earth or if they migrate to other planets, dimensions or places and things we can't conceive of as yet.

In the meantime without imaginary friends of some kind, just like Tom Hanks in Cast Away, we all go crazy and die, even if that imaginary friend is our own ego!
