Hi All
This is a journal of my ideas my observations and my dreams, including the steps i am taking to achieve those dreams.
My intent is to change the world or rather to influence the future vision of the world.
This is a list of the blogs i am publishing:
#1)The list of universal human needs, i believe this list holds self evident paths to happiness,clarity and world change, our relationship with these human needs, our understanding and practice of those needs fulfills the balance each of us seeks. think of an activity and hold it up to the list of universal human needs and see how many needs are being met by that activity. Try to practice all human needs evenly for balance.
http://theideamanworldchangecomingtoyou.blogspot.com/2012/02/conversation-about-universal-human.html
#2)I am developing games to satisfy universal human needs and change the world.
My first project will be getting ''GREEN SHOOTS INDEPENDENT FILMMAKERS GROUP'' off the ground. some of the ideas for green shoots are in the link below.

The other day when researching facts about hemp for energy, I turned to the site http://www.jackherer.com/thebook/chapter-nine/ . Chapter Nine of Jack Herer's book, "The Emperor Wears No Clothes", made the lightbulb in my head go off.
Read it and see if it does the same thing for you.
In the 1920s, the early oil barons such as Rockefeller of Standard Oil, Rothschild of Shell, etc., became paranoically aware of the possibilities of Henry Ford’s vision of cheap methanol fuel, * and they kept oil prices incredibly low – between $1 and $4 per barrel (there are 42 gallons in an oil barrel) until 1970 – almost 50 years! Then, once they were finally sure of the lack of competition, the price of oil jumped to almost $60+ per barrel over the next 30 years.
'1970'? What happened in the early 70's? Richard Nixon declared war on cannabis. He changed the classification of cannabis and virtually declared war on the plant. Hemp is part of the cannabis family and became an instant casualty. People couldn't even speak of the use of hemp for oil. They even ended up creating a Czar, to silence the voices of reason.
How's that worked out for us? Our economy spins on the whims of the oil companies. IMHO, Richard Nixon could have had more than cannabis on his mind when he eliminated, the oil companies natural competitor. Hemp is a renewable resource, which could be used to replace the plastic now polluting our planet.
The war on cannabis has come at a high price. Maybe even higher than I could have imagined? 'What if' hemp had been available and our dependence and reliance on oil, had not lead us on such a destructive path? 'What if" a plant could have been the answer all along, had we not been moved along to their wrongs, with the invention of a war.The other day when researching facts about hemp for energy, I turned to the site... more

Our government conducts business in secret. The First Amendment is gone...there are MAYBE nine amendments left in the Bill of Rights.
"WASHINGTON -- In a stunning break with First Amendment policy on Capitol Hill, House Republicans directed Capitol Hill police to detain a highly regarded documentary crew that was attempting to film a Wednesday hearing on a controversial natural gas procurement practice. Republicans also denied the entrance of a credentialed ABC News news team that was attempting to film the event."Our government conducts business in secret.

Can we say, Brainwashed? This is really upsetting.
My mom didn't tell me she was gay untill I was 13 because she was afraid I wouldn't love her. I'd like to help Sara learn something about what she is missing; a heart. The average 14 year old wants an iPod, iPhone, etc... what 14 year old actually cares about what government dictates about marriage? Makes me wonder what the parents have "homeschooled" her about different races. Clearly they are cowards to coach their child and hide behind her! WOW!Can we say, Brainwashed? This is really upsetting.

WASHINGTON -- A Senate bill banning the trading of corporate stocks by members of Congress based on nonpublic political information will see a vote next week, according to Democratic sources working on the bill.
"It'll be on the floor next week, either hotlined or an actual vote," one source said of the bill, known as the STOCK Act. Hotlining refers to the process of moving a bill through by unanimous consent.
A separate Democratic aide said that negotiations over amendments were still ongoing, which would make hotlining more difficult. A Democratic leadership aide, meanwhile, would only say that a vote was "possible."
The STOCK Act, authored by Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and Scott Brown (R-Mass.), would ban trading by members of Congress guided by nonpublic economic or political information. It would also improve disclosures of all stock trades and other financial maneuvers by members of Congress, by requiring them to publicly detail each transaction within 30 days. Lawmakers are currently granted a full year of secrecy before disclosing such financial activities.
The bill received a big boost on Tuesday when President Barack Obama called for its enactment during the State of the Union address.
"Send me a bill that bans insider trading by members of Congress; I will sign it tomorrow," Obama said.

ASSASSINATING US President Barack Obama for refusing to wage war on Iran is an opinion Andrew Adler wishes he never published. But that's exactly what the owner of the Atlanta Jewish Times did on January 13 and now he's facing vocal opposition and a Secret Service investigation.
''Give the go-ahead for US-based Mossad agents to take out a president deemed unfriendly to Israel in order for the current vice-president to take his place and forcefully dictate that the United States' policy includes its helping the Jewish state obliterate its enemies,'' Adler wrote in a piece called ''What would you do?'' Adler issued an apology, saying, ''I very much regret it. I wish I hadn't made reference to it at all.''
However, the Secret Service is not taking the threat so lightly, CNN reported. ''We are aware of it,'' Secret Service spokesman George Ogilvie told the news channel. ''We are taking the appropriate investigative steps.''
While the weekly Atlanta Jewish Times has a modest circulation, Gawker.com found the op-ed piece and brought it into the spotlight.
Adler offered three options for dealing with an American president unwilling to defend Israel fighting a hypothetical war: First, strike Hezbollah and Hamas. Second, attack Iran's nuclear facilities. Third, ''order a hit'' against the president.
Reaction from fellow Jewish journalists has been swift. Chemi Shalev lamented the poor choice of words at Haaretz.com: ''It will indeed take a long time and a great effort to undo the damage Adler has wrought.''

Iceland is free. And it will remain so, so long as her people wish to remain autonomous of the foreign domination of her would-be masters — in this case, international bankers.
On April 9, the fiercely independent people of island-nation defeated a referendum that would have bailed out the UK and the Netherlands who had covered the deposits of British and Dutch investors who had lost funds in Icesave bank in 2008.
At the time of the bank’s failure, Iceland refused to cover the losses. But the UK and Netherlands nonetheless have demanded that Iceland repay them for the “loan” as a condition for admission into the European Union.
In response, the Icelandic people have told Europe to go pound sand. The final vote was 103,207 to 69,462, or 58.9 percent to 39.7 percent. “Taxpayers should not be responsible for paying the debts of a private institution,” said Sigriur Andersen, a spokeswoman for the Advice group that opposed the bailout.
A similar referendum in 2009 on the issue, although with harsher terms, found 93.2 percent of the Icelandic electorate rejecting a proposal to guarantee the deposits of foreign investors who had funds in the Icelandic bank. The referendum was invoked when President Olafur Ragnur Grimmson vetoed legislation the Althingi, Iceland’s parliament, had passed to pay back the British and Dutch.
Under the terms of the agreement, Iceland would have had to pay £2.35 billion to the UK, and €1.32 billion to the Netherlands by 2046 at a 3 percent interest rate. Its rejection for the second time by Iceland is a testament to its people, who feel they should bear no responsibility for the losses of foreigners endured in the financial crisis.
That opposition to bailouts led to Iceland’s decision to allow the bank to fail in 2008. Not that the taxpayers there could have afforded to. As noted by Bloomberg News, at the time the crisis hit in 2008, “the banks had debts equal to 10 times Iceland’s $12 billion GDP.”
“These were private banks and we didn’t pump money into them in order to keep them going; the state did not shoulder the responsibility of the failed private banks,” Iceland President Olafur Grimsson told Bloomberg Television.
The voters’ rejection came despite threats to isolate Iceland from funding in international financial institutions. Iceland’s national debt has already been downgraded by credit rating agencies, and now those same agencies have promised to do so once again as punishment for defying the will of international bankers.
This is just the latest in the long drama since 2008 of global institutions refusing to take losses in the financial crisis. Threats of a global economic depression and claims of being “too big to fail” have equated to a loaded gun to the heads of representative governments in the U.S. and Europe. Iceland is of particular interest because it did not bail out its banks like Ireland did, or foreign ones like the U.S. did.
If that fervor catches on amongst taxpayers worldwide, as it has in Iceland and with the tea party movement in America, the banks would have something to fear; that is, the inability to draw from limitless amounts of funding from gullible government officials and central banks. It appears that the root cause is government guarantees, whether explicit or implicit, on risk-taking by the banks.
Ultimately, such guarantees are not necessary to maintain full employment or even prop up an economy with growth, they are simply designed to allow these international institutions to overleverage and increase their profit margins in good times — and to avoid catastrophic losses in bad times.
The lesson here is instructive across the pond, but it is a chilling one. If the U.S. — or any sovereign for that matter — attempts to restructure their debts, or to force private investors to take a haircut on their own foolish gambles, these international institutions have promised the equivalent of economic war in response. However, the alternative is for representative governments to sacrifice their independence to a cadre of faceless bankers who share no allegiance to any nation.
It is the conflict that has already defined the beginning of the 21st Century. The question is whether free peoples will choose to remain free, as Iceland has, or to submit.

Gary Johnson "In 1997 Newt Gingrich Proposed The Death Penalty For Possession Of Marijuana" 5:35 into clip.
If I had a voice, I would ask Newt if his views have changed? I would ask him if he knows the 'true' history of cannabis hemp. One can hide the facts, contained in our history, but they can't change the facts.
Cannabis hemp has history. Positive's which go ignored. I would ask him if he has the courage to have a discussion about cannabis hemp? We have had a war on our shores for too many years. We have more people in prison than any other country, basically due to the war on cannabis. He should be able to state verifiable facts. If not, why not? It's time to end the war.
I would ask him if he has invested in 'private prisons'? The Office of President is too important, to allow them to claim ignorance, as though they don't know. I recommend, "The Emperor Wears No Clothes", by the late Jack Herer. The first half of the book, contains the facts. The second half of the book is copies of the documentation to back up the facts in the first half.
It's our history! It's time to hold politicians accountable! Do they know the facts? If not, why not? If you haven't seen the book, it's available to read on line, http://www.jackherer.com/thebook/ It can be used as a history test, for those who want to lead. Do they know the facts? Only accept 'the truth and nothing but the truth'. Opinions can be spun, no spinning allowed. Facts lead to truth. Spin distorts the truth, to distract from the facts. We're deserve better than that! We are the 'We the People', our Constitution represents!Gary Johnson "In 1997 Newt Gingrich Proposed The Death Penalty For Possession Of... more
