E. Stanley O’Neal, the former chief executive of Merrill Lynch, was paid $46 million in 2006, $18.5 million of it in cash.

But Merrill’s record earnings in 2006 — $7.5 billion — turned out to be a mirage. The company has since lost three times that amount, largely because the mortgage investments that supposedly had powered some of those profits plunged in value.

Unlike the earnings, however, the bonuses have not been reversed.

As regulators and shareholders sift through the rubble of the financial crisis, questions are being asked about what role lavish bonuses played in the debacle.

For Wall Street, much of this decade represented a new Gilded Age. Salaries were merely play money — a pittance compared to bonuses. Bonus season became an annual celebration of the riches to be had in the markets. That was especially so in the New York area, where nearly $1 out of every $4 that companies paid employees last year went to someone in the financial industry. Bankers celebrated with five-figure dinners, vied to outspend each other at charity auctions and spent their newfound fortunes on new homes, cars and art.

More than 100 people in Merrill’s bond unit alone broke the million-dollar mark in 2006. Goldman Sachs paid more than $20 million apiece to more than 50 people that year, according to a person familiar with the matter.

pg. 10 – 11

The following key points summarize economic performance in FY 2008.

*    After increasing by 2.7 percent in FY 2007, consumer spending was slightly negative over the four quarters of FY 2008, with a notable slowing in the final quarter.
*    Exports have been a key driver of the economy, maintaining a steady pace of growth in FY 2008 and accelerating markedly during the latter half of the fiscal year, but the outlook for exports is uncertain in view of the spreading world-wide recession.
*    Labor market conditions deteriorated during FY 2008. Nonfarm payroll employment declined at an average rate of 68,000 jobs per month in FY 2008, compared with the 109,000 average increase in jobs per month in FY 2007.

*   The unemployment rate trended steadily higher throughout FY 2008, reaching 6.1 percent at the very end of the fiscal year, compared to 4.7 percent at the end of FY 2007.
*    Overall inflation, as measured by the consumer price index (CPI), advanced to 5.3 percent in FY 2008, up significantly from the 2.4 percent pace of FY 2007. Core inflation (which excludes food and energy) remained relatively contained, however, rising to 2.5 percent in FY 2008 versus 2.1 percent in FY 2007.

NOTE – The above figures although written in the GAO budget have obviously been revised at this time – unemployment rate admitted to be 7.2% by govt.

– also, inflation has increased significantly regardless of anything economic experts on news outlets say, as partly evidenced by this report and others.

The Path to Recovery, Part I – HERA

In July 2008, Congress passed the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) of 2008, based on concern that continued losses at Fannie and Freddie and throughout the U.S. housing/credit market could lead to significantly larger and broader problems for both the U.S. and foreign economies.

HERA established a new regulatory agency: the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) with enhanced regulatory authority over the housing Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs)3, including the capital requirements and business activities of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. HERA also provided the Treasury Secretary with temporary authority to purchase any obligations and other securities issued by the housing GSEs.

Due to deteriorating conditions in the housing mortgage markets and the resulting negative financial impact on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, FHFA placed them under conservatorship on September 7, 2008. This action was taken to preserve GSE assets, ensure a sound and solvent financial condition, and mitigate systemic risks that contributed to current market instability.

Placing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac under protection of a conservatorship enabled the Government to avert the initial threat of failure and focus on the larger, systemic challenges, with the ultimate intention of restoring financial stability. Under the conservatorship, the conservator (FHFA) replaced the organization’s senior management and oversaw the continued operation of the GSEs.

***

Pursuant to the authorities provided to the Secretary of the Treasury under the HERA, the Treasury Department, on September 7, 2008, took three additional steps to help ensure the solvency and liquidity of the GSE while they are working to resolve their financial difficulties:
a    o entering into senior preferred stock purchase arrangements with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac;
b    o establishing a GSE credit facility; and
c    o establishing a GSE MBS purchase program.

***

HERA established the HOPE for Homeowners Program4, which provides another stop-gap measure by helping borrowers faced with foreclosure refinance through the Federal Housing Administration. Despite these actions, there was still a pressing need to address the more systemic challenges posed by the credit crisis.

3 The housing GSEs (Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the Federal Home Loan Bank System) are chartered by the Federal Government and pursue a federally mandated mission to support housing finance. Some GSEs are distinctly established as corporate entities – owned by shareholders of stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The operations of the housing GSEs are not guaranteed by the Federal Government.

4 HOPE for Homeowners is a voluntary program for the refinancing of distressed loans by providing Federal Housing Administration (FHA) insurance for refinanced loans that meet certain eligibility requirements. Both borrower and lender must agree to participate in the program.

***

The Path to Recovery, Part II – EESA and TARP
In October 2008, Congress passed and the President signed the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act (EESA), which authorized Treasury to establish and manage the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). In general, TARP authorizes the Government to provide additional protection and stability to financial markets through a wide array of mechanisms:

*           EESA authorizes the Government to purchase or insure up to $700 billion in troubled assets, such as securities and other financial instruments.

*           The Treasury Secretary had immediate access to the first $250 billion. Following that, an additional $100 billion was authorized by the President. The last $350 billion is subject to Presidential approval and Congressional review.

In its first use of the TARP, Treasury created the Capital Purchase Program (CPP) to purchase up to $250 billion in senior preferred shares in a wide variety of banks and other financial institutions. These will be largely non-voting shares, may be sold to a third party, and will pay a 5 percent dividend in the first 5 years, and 9 percent thereafter.

a    Any firm participating in the CPP will provide the Treasury Secretary with a warrant guaranteeing the right to purchase additional common shares worth up to 15 percent of the value of the preferred stock purchased. The purchase price will be the average stock selling price over the 20-day period before the preferred stock purchase. If the company is unable to issue a warrant, it may issue senior debt instead.

b    EESA provides for: (1) oversight by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and a Special Inspector General; and (2) transparency by requiring Treasury to make available an electronic description of assets acquired under the program.

– NOTE PROVISION ABOVE –
[my note that the above provision for accountability already exists]

***
Recovery Efforts and Actions
The following summarizes some of the recovery efforts to date and their impact on and implications for the Government’s consolidated financial statements.

It should be noted that, although HERA and EESA authorize the Government to spend hundreds of billions of dollars in the recovery effort, the majority of those funds have yet to actually be spent, and as a result, are not and would not be reported on the Government’s consolidated financial statements.

Generally, the Government has recorded the funds that have already been spent at cost. The Government expects to recover, if not earn a return on these funds.

Actions by Congress:
*    Passes HERA, which enhanced the regulatory framework and provided temporary authority for the Treasury Secretary to provide financial support to Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs).
*    Passes EESA, establishing the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), authorizing the Treasury Department to use up to $700 billion in support of market stabilization efforts. The $700 billion limit shall be reduced by the difference between outstanding and guaranteed obligations under the EESA-authorized insurance program, if any, and the balance in the Troubled Assets Insurance Financing Fund (TAIFF), established by EESA to guarantee timely payments on mortgage-related assets.
*    Legislation only authorizes the Government to engage in specified market relief efforts. Authorizations by themselves do not impact either the Government’s financial statements or the deficit – the exercise of those authorities do.

Actions by the Federal Reserve System (Fed)
*    Lends approximately $30 billion in support of JP Morgan Chase to facilitate its acquisition of Bear Stearns;
*    Agrees to lend up to $85 billion to American International Group (AIG). Subsequent to FY-end 2008, the credit facility was modified and Treasury agreed to purchase $40 billion in Senior AIG preferred stock and will receive common stock warrants for 2 percent of the outstanding AIG common stock;
*    Announces Money Market Investor Funding Facility through which the Fed is authorized to buy $600 billion in CDs and commercial paper to bolster money market mutual funds, and sets up separate facilities to purchase certain AIG assets;
*    Agrees to guarantee $306 billion of Citigroup troubled assets. Pursuant to the agreement, Citigroup would cover the first $37 billion in losses, Treasury would cover the next $5 billion, and FDIC would cover up to $10 billion of additional losses. Treasury and FDIC receive Citigroup preferred stock as part of the arrangement;
*    Announces program to purchase up to $500 billion of mortgage-backed securities and up to $100 billion of Fannie and Freddie debt, and to lend up to $200 billion against new car, student, and small-business loans. Treasury has pledged $20 billion from TARP for this program as well;
*    Under the Supplementary Financing Program, Treasury borrowed $300 billion to increase cash balances at the Fed to support the Fed’s market stabilization efforts.

The vast majority of Fed actions and transactions will not directly impact the Government’s financial statements since the Fed is an independent entity and, while part of the Government, is not considered part of the Federal Government reporting entity. To date, the Government’s exposure is largely limited to any impact that losses from these programs may have on excess profits that the Fed is required to pass on to the Treasury’s General fund.

***

Actions by Treasury:

Under HERA authority, received preferred stock and warrants, valued at $7 billion as consideration for entering into assistance agreements – recorded as an investment.

Commits to provide up to $200 billion under a preferred stock purchase agreement to ensure that GSEs’ assets and liabilities remain in balance – records $13.8 billion as a liability in FY 2008, based upon the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s notification to the Treasury Department that a payment is due to Freddie Mac, based on Freddie Mac’s September 30, 2008 net worth status.

Fannie Mae did not require a payment in FY 2008. Purchased $3.3 billion in MBS and recorded that amount as a loan receivable in FY 2008.

Under EESA, used over $200 billion to purchase assets of qualifying financial institutions since fiscal year-end as of December 9, 2008. None of these purchases occurred during FY 2008.

Amounts expended under HERA and EESA have been and are expected to be treated as either investments or loans, as the Government may recover and possibly even earn a positive return on amounts invested as economic conditions improve.

As the first quarter of FY 2009 draws to a close, the Government is exploring a number of other recovery strategies. Actions under HERA, EESA, and other initiatives are intended to restore confidence to lenders and consumers, and provide stability to the nation’s economy.

***
[ . . . ]

Historically, the Government has incurred debt when: (1) it borrows from the public to fund budget deficits, and (2) government funds invest excess receipts in government securities.

However, in FY 2008, this relationship changed, with Treasury borrowing over $300 billion to increase cash balances at the Fed so that the Fed can assist with market stabilization efforts.

The implementation of both HERA and EESA including the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) have the potential to increase future borrowings by more than $1 trillion. Substantial borrowings in FY 2009 and beyond are expected to fund stock and asset purchases at financial institutions across the country.
At the end of FY 2008, the Government had incurred $10 trillion in debt, comprised of: debt held by (or owed to) the public (i.e., publicly held debt) and intragovernmental debt (i.e., debt the Government owes to itself).

Publicly held debt (a balance sheet liability) includes all Treasury securities (e.g., bills, notes, and bonds) held by individuals, corporations, Federal Reserve banks, foreign governments, and other entities outside the Government.

Intra-governmental debt is primarily held in the form of special nonmarketable securities by various parts of the Government. Laws establishing Government trust funds generally require excess trust fund receipts to be invested in these special securities.

Intra-governmental debt is not shown on the balance sheet because claims of one part of the Government against another are eliminated for consolidation purposes (see Financial Statement Note 11).
Gross Federal debt [ . . . ]
Congress established a dollar ceiling for Federal borrowing, which has been periodically increased over the years (most recently from $9.8 trillion to $10.6 trillion in 2008). At the end of FY 2008, the amount of debt subject to the limit was $9.96 trillion, $655.2 billion under the limit. In October 2008, in connection with the passage of EESA, the limit was raised again to $11.3 trillion.

Research and Development
Federal investments in research and development (R&D) comprise those expenses for basic research, applied research, and development that are intended to increase or maintain national economic productive capacity or yield other future benefits.
•
Investments in basic research are for systematic studies to gain knowledge or understanding of the fundamental aspects of phenomena and of observable facts without specific applications toward processes or products in mind.
•
Investments in applied research are for systematic studies to gain knowledge or understanding necessary for determining the means by which a recognized and specific need may be met.
•
Investments in development are the systematic use of the knowledge and understanding gained from research for the production of useful materials, devices, systems, or methods, including the design and development of prototypes and processes.
With regard to basic and applied research, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) had $16.6 billion (60 percent) and $11.4 billion (53 percent), of the total basic and applied research investments, respectively, in fiscal year 2008 as shown in Table 11. HHS also had similar R&D investment amounts (and percentage contributions) in each of the preceding 4 years.
Within HHS, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) conducts almost all (97 percent) of the department’s basic and applied research. The NIH Research Program includes all aspects of the medical research continuum, including basic and disease-oriented research, observational and population-based research, behavioral research, and clinical research, including research to understand both health and disease states, to move laboratory findings into medical applications, to assess new treatments or compare different treatment approaches; and health services research.
The NIH regards the expeditious transfer of the results of its medical research for further development and commercialization of products of immediate benefit to improved health as an important mandate.
With regard to development, the DOD and the NASA had $65.2 billion (82 percent) and $11.4 billion (14 percent), respectively, of total development investments in fiscal year 2008, as shown in Table 11. DOD changed its methodology for reporting yearly investments in research and development during fiscal year 2008 which affected the current and prior 4 years. Their data is based on research and development outlays (expenditures). As a result, the total amounts of investments in development (Table 11) have been restated. Development is comprised of five stages: advanced technology development, advanced component development and prototypes, system development and demonstration, management support, and operational systems development. Major outcomes of DOD development are:
•
Hardware and software components, or complete weapon systems, ready for operational and developmental testing and field use, and
•
Weapon systems finalized for complete operational and developmental testing.
NASA development programs include activities to extend our knowledge of Earth, its space environment, and the universe, and to invest in new aeronautics and advanced space transportation technologies that support the development and application of technologies critical to the economic, scientific, and technical competiveness of the United States. Some outcomes and future outcomes of this development are:
•
The Constellation Systems program to develop, demonstrate, and deploy the capabilities to transport crew and cargo for missions to the lunar surface and safely return the crew to Earth.
•
Robotic spacecraft that use electrical power for propulsion, data acquisition, and communication to accurately place themselves in orbit around the surfaces of bodies about which we may know relatively little.
•
The Fundamental Aeronautics Program conducts research to enable the design of vehicles that fly through any atmosphere at any speed. A key focus will be the development of physics-based, multidisciplinary design, analysis, and optimization tools to address the multiple design challenges in future aircraft.
•
The James Webb Space Telescope is a large, deployable infrared astronomical space-based observatory. The mission is a logical successor to the Hubble Space Telescope, extending beyond Hubble’s discoveries into the infrared, where the highly red shifted early universe must be observed, where cool objects like protostars and protoplanetary disks emit strongly, and where dust obscures shorter wavelengths.
•
The study of the dynamic Earth system to trace effect to cause, connect variability and forcing with response, and vastly improve national capabilities to predict climate, weather, natural hazards, and conditions in the space environment.

from Evidence-based Policy Report (UK)

This is not to say that most policy develops in such a linear way from first identifying the evidence, balancing the options and then developing and evaluating the resulting policy. As set out by the Chief Government Social Researcher, the idea of ‘evidence-inspired’ policy making might be more appropriate (Duncan, 2005). Amongst those interviewed, there was a clear distinction between the theory or ideal behind evidence-based policy and the realities of making policy in the real world.“…but that is very much an ideal, that’s very much a theory, which is sometimes overturned by events.”The reality of policy making was described as messy and unpredictable, rarely progressing in a linear fashion. Evidence was clearly just one factor which policy makers took into consideration when developing or implementing policy. Other factors and real-world events and crises all exerted an influence to a greater or lesser degree depending on the policy. Most importantly, the timing of most policies rarely allowed for a linear and methodical evaluation of the evidence. Evidence-based policy making, therefore, was not seen as something that is conducted in isolation. Although most of the policy makers were obviously uncomfortable with the idea of policy made ‘on the hoof’ in response to some pressing need to respond to an issue or on the basis of anecdote or media pressure, they acknowledged that a purely evidence-based approach was rarely possible.

– my comments –

I’ve been hearing on the news, even from government officials and Congress members including Barney Frank – that there is no accountability for recipients of the first TARP funds that were originally issued – nor those funds that were also used prior to that last year as emergency funds.

The fact is otherwise and can be found in the above document from the US government Accountability Office. In fact, I think I read that in the wording of the legislation originally passed on the TARP funds and in those other bailouts for “the housing bill” that Congress passed, for GSE’s, in the AIG bailout dollars and at the increased limits at the credit windows, etc.

Okay – so what the hell is this now? Are these government workers and elected members just pretending not to know this stuff or are they deciding that it is too much for them to find out how these funds have been used?

Obviously, there are the economic signs of literally a depression rather than a recession at this point and these dynamics are based on the basic definitions of an economic depression. It looks like a shallow depression that has been articulated to be shallow at this point. However, it is spreading out so far and so fast, that I would question what it will become next, having been artificially and unnaturally flattened and shallowed from what it would’ve been otherwise. My guess – a scientific wild-ass guess, at best – is that we’ve come to the “oh, hell” part of the equation.

that said, there is a serious uncontained fault in the foundation of our economy and I think it means that under the current stresses, this and other weaknesses could be amplified and cleaving long before anything could be done to stop it. Our cash / currency foundation is resting on projections that are based on faulty logic and pre-supposed factors that no longer exist. I would say that is now a serious problem because it has been a supporting structure for all US currency and asset values. That is a big fault line in the foundation.

When mortgages are sold – the property becomes the ownership of the foreign bank or government that has bought it

So, let’s see what we’ve got here . . .

Every piece of property in America has been sold three times over –

once when the seller received their price from the buyer’s mortgage,

secondly, when the bank or finance company charged 8 times the price of the property for the mortgage on it,

and, third, when that mortgage was sold to a secondary market packaged with other derivatives and mortgage-backed securities.

***

So now, every piece of property in the United States is no longer owned by anyone in our citizenry who would occupy and conduct their lives from it. That means, we don’t own America anymore.

***

Every property is now owned by banks around the world, foreign investment groups and other businesses rather than by anything or anyone in the US. Even the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgage products are sold off into the secondary markets so they can make more mortgages. Therefore even those properties are literally under the ownership of businesses elsewhere.

As much as some American banks and companies do own groups of these mortgage-backed securities, they are not people in respect to this property ownership – not homeowners – not those who would be members of the community – not church goers – not raising their families in those homes – and have no vested interest in the improvement and upkeep of the homes.

***

There are several serious flaws in this system and ideology of mortgage / home ownership / commercial property / real estate and property ownership. The first of which is that those holding the mortgages actually own the properties, not those people that are paying on the mortgages.

The more serious flaw, however, is that now none of the property in the US is owned by the US nor by its citizens. How can people be paying for something that they will never, never, never own? Why would they pay for these homes and properties when some foreign banking or investment group is actually being paid to pay off their debt in the property and those Americans paying the interest and principle will never own it?

***

Another reason this system is flawed, has to do with the pragmatic logistics of owning thirty thousand properties in the US when these have defaulted on their mortgages and the company of ownership exists elsewhere in the world. Not only did these companies, banks, hedge funds and investors never have a plan for this – they also have no real intention of using these properties as homes or businesses.

The properties are no more than a number on a page of assets somewhere – the real properties behind them mean nothing in this tally while the only real use the properties do have is no longer viable and no longer utilized. At the same time, those who would have use of the physical real properties among the citizens and businesses in the US have no genuine access to ownership of them. What purpose then do they serve?

When there exists no part and place for the citizens of a country to have real ownership in property and businesses of their country – there also ceases to exist any vested interest in support of the interests of the country and its communities, its governments, its existing businesses, its ideologies, its security, its assets, its improvements, its survival.

***

Now, the bankers, government officials, chamber of commerce leadership, lobbyists, Wall Street, and various other leaders of the United States appear to be trying to find a way to keep the same old game going. So, the real question is not what will restore the credit markets.

The real question is – how we will take what we have and go to something new that evolves from what it has been?

So we take these bankers out of the game for the very treasonous and criminal harms done to the United States and the World? Do we restore ownership of all mortgages, credit, properties, assets and US business interests of the US to the US?

Do we let those companies be destroyed that are holding to prices that are inflated for purposes of making money on the credit required for any purchases of their products, services or properties, including automakers and sellers of real estate? Do we stop subsidizing lobbyists, banks, financiers and foreign interests, profit-driven oil companies and pharmaceuticals?

***

How much of the problems would be solved if we make it the law that if a bank or finance company originates a mortgage, it must hold that mortgage for at least two-thirds of the life of the mortgage or for its entire term?

How much more of the economic problems in the US and around the World would be solved almost immediately by removing all credit derivatives from use – allowing no new ones to be made and by forcing all existing ones to be resolved before the end of 2009? What if that includes all credit derivatives, credit default swaps, mortgage-backed securities, bonds and commercial paper of any kind – all of which would be resolved before the end of 2009 and then never allowed again?

About the Oil Crisis – Brainstorming Solutions –
2008 Cricket Diane C Phillips
07-29-08

The basic problem I see is this – most of our mechanical power and propulsion systems are based on combustion. This means that we are still harnessing the discovery of fire to translate into our mechanical work mechanisms.

In each translation there is a significant loss of energy and efficiency. With each gear and armature, there is a loss of energy. Rather than amplifying power input, our current systems degrade that input at each juncture of change from source to output.

As the basis for engineering and science, surely there has already been discoveries about natural and cosmic phenomenon beyond creating fire, heat or combustion.

If petroleum is atomized to the nano particle level, isn’t the surface area of combustion increased? Or does something else occur at that point? Do we have to continue living with exotic chemical combinations in our air or can we harness them for transportation fuels?

Could we use reflexive skids under our existing cars rather than tires to decrease the effects of friction and no longer need to push our vehicles against the ground surface? Is there really a need for that many moving parts in vehicles’ mechanical systems? Are we only doing it that way to support businesses that are no longer viable?

Do we require controlled blasts to move pistons as a reaction of combustion (fire) or could a chemical reaction do that? Couldn’t a plasma reaction ionizing the air inside the combustion chamber of existing vehicles move the pistons with less energy and greater efficiency? Wouldn’t that make better sense along with restructuring a certain degree of complexity that has over the years been used “under the hood”?

Even water given a pressurized environment contains enough power to move the mechanical workings of a car or pull a load, such as required by trucks. The idea that we have not progressed beyond the discovery of fire must be wrong with the time, knowledge and money that has already been put into our understandings of physics, etc.

When do we utilize what has been developed, considering the costs associated with keeping the status quo?

If –> two powerful magnets holding in stasis a plasma reaction of carbon nanoparticles, then could an electron swarm be culled from this reaction and for how long with what input?

Why not use hovercraft technology on land for vehicles’ motion?

With as much nitrogen derivative compounds in every city’s air from car and truck emissions, it would seem this is a better fuel source that is available. Under a pressure system, the change of neutrons could occur releasing great quantities of power to harness. Or, using the basis of energy in temperature change, could harnessing of these nitrogen compounds create a fuel source for another kind of kinetic engine?

There are many chemical reactions which yield energy in transmutation. Isn’t there anything that industrial slag from one process which would combine with that of another to produce power by chemical reaction rather than combustion?

We also have methane from landfills that are abundant. Can this be used to fuel existing systems for cars and trucks, as is being done by some industries? Is it really necessary for the habits of filling up the car with gasoline to remain the same for people to feel comfortable?

Would there be anyway to create a distribution network in a timely manner for alternative fuel stations such that there would be convenience to using them? Could these be offered by a retail chain whose locations already exist that is not a gasoline retailer but possibly a discount merchandise retailer instead? There are groceries and discounters that have huge chains nationwide that could simply add an island of alternative fuels in their parking lots, perhaps by subcontracted businesses. Would they do that?

In 1992, Popular Mechanics magazine, there is a Nissan vehicle (car) that was announced in full working model that ran on 100% electricity. It is now 2008. Every car manufacturer has working models that have been shown at one time or another for fully electric cars, light trucks and other mechanical marvels, including lawn mowers, power tools, heavy load movers and others. Why aren’t these available to the market considering there has been more than enough time to do all the tests on them to date?

What conflict of interest is placing our car and truck manufacturers on the list of beneficiaries to the petroleum industry’s continued profitability extreme? The extreme has been a complete monopoly on the market and the compliance in the vehicle manufacturing concerns to keep the current petroleum based systems in place indicates some deep pocket advantage to them. This has kept the status quo in place despite every evidence of its detriment across several areas of impact and concern.

There are laws of physics which have some interesting possibilities for motion and propulsion. Some of these have been pursued by scientists and engineers. Some have been designed into systems already but they are not on the market. It appears that the entrenched powers in the marketplace have been undermining the introduction of these new technologies and uses of the new understandings of physics for market-ready products, particularly in transportation uses.

Unless pollution that is currently prevalent everywhere is somehow harnessed and utilized to power modern living, there will be no turning back from the damage that has already occurred. The time has passed already for assessing, studying, testing, figuring, analyzing and in fact, all that has been done at this point. Possibilities exist that simply need to be put into play now.

Resource Management
2008 Cricket Diane C Phillips

1. What is available?
Believe it or not, I start with a broad scan of what is available before focusing on what is needed for a project or group of projects. When I’m searching across these broad areas, it includes local resources across the community and nearby cities as well as online and specialty resources pools. This also includes any and every possibility I can generate for places to look.
For instance, there are always huge bins of salvageable resources in “tear-offs,” remodeling and construction industry discards. These represent large pools of tangible resources that can be used for a multitude of project requirements. There are also independent contractors who are involved in construction projects who recycle and send into the community some of the things they happen upon during their work that can be approached to acquire certain things from electric motors to wiring, wiring harnesses and other industrial salvage. This is only one example, but there are many throughout our communities and in nearby city centers.

2. What is needed?
After taking a look at where large pools of certain resources are abundant and reviewing my goals for the project, I look at what is needed. Sometimes, the look at abundant current pools of resources does influence changes in the project, but most of the time, it does not. The next thing to do is to either get a list on paper or get a list, general or specific, in my mind. It depends on what it is – if there are over twenty items, more or less, I generally keep the list in my mind rather than on paper because that works better for me. The main idea is to be congruent, coherent and concurrent in acquisition processing. There is no sense missing the opportunity to get three things from the same place because a list is being processed one item at a time.
I always determine at this point, how important is it? This is a critical judgement at this point in the process because if I don’t know how far I’m willing to go to complete the project, I won’t have a basis of judgement or justification for climbing over the hurdles that will be part and parcel of resourcing the project.

3. What condition of assets is required? (Does it matter if they are brand new or not?)
Sometimes, a brand new item within a project group is the only thing that will work for the integrity of the finished product. If that is the case, I want to determine that as early in the process as I can. Then, resourcing that item may be limited to cash in trade or in kind trade or some other limiting method. Otherwise, how new does it need to be? Most things do not have to be brand new and occasionally, reconditioning may be required.

4. How much (in what quantity) is required?

5. Is the entire quantity required at once or at the start? (Or can it be done in stages?)

6. Besides stores and other retail outlets, where are these resources located?

7. In what quantities are the resources available at the places listed?

8. What barter, trade or cash is required to get these assets?

9. How quickly can they be acquired, delivered, rounded up?

10. Now, decisions have to be made –

A.) Yes, go ahead –
B.) No, not worth it –
C.) Probably, but need more info –
D.) Likely, but need better resource choices – or access choices –
E.) Maybe later, set on a shelf for another time and relook later.

11. Next, acquisition processes begin –

A.) Negotiate
B.) Barter
C.) Trade
D.) Clean-Up
E.) Trade-Up
F.) Exchange
G.) Borrow
H.) Beg
I.) Steal – (not really – permanent borrowing when approved by owner)
J.) Buy New
K.) Buy Used
L.) Buy Auctioned
M.) Buy Discounted or Clearanced
N.) Buy or Trade Salvaged
O.) Buy or Trade Online
P.) Collectors Exchange
Q.) Hobby Trade and Exchange
R.) Opportunity Exchange
S.) Barter Platform Websites Exchange and Trading
T.) Specialty Convention Trading
U.) Co-ownership – Joint ownership (for tools and large equipment)
V.) Rental or Lease
W.) Sponsorship – Get someone to sponsor acquisition
X.) Rare acquisition sources, trade – barter – buy
Y.) Pawnshop, Impound, Impound Auctions, Alternate Sources
Z.) Extreme acquisition sources, trade – barter – buy (also find a good excuse for one-time use purchase by someone or some group and buy it from them after that.)

Subconsciously Absorbing Materials & Cross-Referencing – Part II

2008 Cricket Diane C “Sparky” Phillips
Cricket House Studios – USA1

1.  Human beings are goal-driven organisms.

2.  By choice of will the subconscious can be directed.

3.  Using self-hypnosis of relaxation / meditation techniques and counting down / breathing exercises the will can be activated to direct subconscious goals.

4.  Goals must be stated as positives, rather than using the words “not”, “never” or “don’t” in the statements.

5.  The human subconscious is already proven to retain each and every, any and all facts, elements, observations, thoughts, sounds & experiences from its birth into the world throughout its lifetime inclusively.

6.  The subconscious is not known to make judgements of value or priority on information – all is stored.

7.  To cross-reference each and every item in the subconscious as it fits to each and every other item in the internal and external world is requested of the self during meditative self-hypnosis techniques.

8.  I added (for myself) – “give me literacy, knowledge and understanding (immediately or sooner) when I want it.”

9.  Also, I requested that each and every, any and all elements in the future be cross-referenced to every other thing automatically by the subconscious.

10. I re-iterated by intention and will both during self-hypnosis and throughout the day, “this is what I want, for everything to be cross-referenced to every other thing and available to me the moment I want it.”

11. Using games of recall (taught to me by my parents as a preschool child and that I found in books or made up over the years), I practice recall.

12.  For recall to be fluid, automatic and fully integrated, there must be belief that it is possible, goals requesting the information, willingness to accept, honor & pursue what the subconscious offers when asked.

For this entire process to work, it hinges on the way information is treated when recalled & this includes creative, otherwise unrealized applications, solutions, ideas & groupings of elements brought to mind from the subconscious. Demean the information as not fitting the request – the process is thwarted and may not produce results.

Honor the self and subconscious in the process by writing down, checking, going to confirm and physically looking up what the subconscious has offered and the process produces results better each time (and faster). Inclusively accepting all results as “part of” in some way without casting aside any of it establishes a fact that the efforts made have value and are desirable.

Critically analyze the information and its links to other items brought out by the subconscious rather than criticizing or excluding those cross-references and sources. Then, the process is treated respectfully and produces more, better and faster.

Analogic Thought – Part III – (IV) – 2008

2008 Cricket Diane C Phillips
Cricket House Studios – USA1

The way I use analogic thought processes and analysis generally is goal-driven. It doesn’t have to be goal-oriented, however.

An open-ended exploration to discover what is there can be made analogically by simply collecting all factors and elements found as they are. In this case, a goal need not be present to reflect exclusion of anything found. All is brought to the table as a set of facts, excluding nothing.

But, how do I process those elements if they are not processed logically?  What other choice would there be to understand the facts located for the set?

Analogic processing compares relationships which generates sets of questions to answer, such as

1.  Where were these “discoveries” in the set found in relation to their original environment and in relation to one another?

2.  Over what period of time were they discovered, in what order or arrangement and in what condition?

3.  How have they changed in time from the moment they were discovered until now and before being found?

4.  In what ways do the items in the set relate, in what manner are they alike, in what ways dissimilar, and obviously of the same set besides time and location discovered?

5.  How do these elements fit together in a greater picture?  In what associations are they a representative part of other sets, other factors, other lines of connection and what part of other larger pictures do they serve?

This last question is not to be confused with representative “pie slice” aberrations of thought which say a slice of the pie is representative of the whole. It is a faulty assumption of logic to believe that a pie slice is capable of providing accurate ratios of elements in a whole pie or in a whole picture. This item number 5 above is different than the “pie slice” logic.

The process defined in analogic reasoning seeks to find the likely representation of links into greater systems and processes that may be evidenced by the factors or items in a set.

Let’s say, for example, that I came upon a piece of paper with four numbers on it and two words. That will be my set for the example. Element one is the paper, its location, condition and time it was found. Element two would be what is written on the paper, the way it is written, the method used to write it and the character of the writing (hand-writing or machine generated).

Element three would be the position of the numbers and words in relation to the physical parameters of the paper, their relation to one another as written on the surfaces, the relationships of the words and numbers to possible larger sets and these relationships to the placement and time of where the paper was found.

Now, honestly, this all happens very, very quickly after using this way of thinking for awhile. Its more cumbersome writing it all out than it is doing it because our brains are made to think this way in the right hemisphere, and to process all this in an instant (or pretty close to an instant.)

So, let’s use these numbers on the paper which appear randomly on its surface: 1, 3, 9 and 2.99 ; and these words; milk, Joey. That would make one hell of a sentence. It could be part of one sentence in a quick note, so there is a possibility.

Six physical number indications – not a phone number. One item and one name would make a strange shopping list but I have daughters, you never know what may be in their idea of “shopping for”.

Because I know there are more elements of discovery here than those already listed, I’ll share what else I see . . .

1.  Pressures of pen or pencil greater on some elements of the writing than others,

2.  Crumpled edges, a small grease stain on one corner like burnt motor oil rather than kitchen grease,

3.  The smell of sandalwood incense and something else like diesel carbons on the paper,

4.  I didn’t find this in the trash, nor fully crumpled but in a spot on the floor of the attic near a box of both girls’ junk they left there,

5.  I don’t know Joey and they’ve never mentioned him when I was paying attention,

6.  Joey may be a girl or a guy and I am never sure if milk means the white stuff that I buy to drink or is what?

7.  The term 2.99 could pe a price or a time because we indicate time with a dot rather than a colon and often use military or international time signatures, even my children do and old roommates did also,

8.  Why does it matter? Sometimes it does & sometimes it doesn’t but if this note does indicate my children are milking Joey for $2.99 – I need to have a talk with them about getting more money. And, I don’t care how old my children are – it would probably be good to meet Joey.

9.  The other element present is that there are faint indications of spray across the surface of the paper which look like a soda bottle, beer or other fizzy beverage may have sprayed across its surface or someone blew into the bong instead of sucking on it or was siphoning gas and spit it out or who knows what. It isn’t the spatter from clean water.

Putting all these elements together as our set on an example here is for the purpose of comparing logical processing with analogic processing.

Logic says, where did I find this and who does it likely belong to? Then, ventures a guess – an educated guess, but still – a guess, and sets about to find other supporting evidence for this guess or theory. Unfortunately the drawback of this process is that all or nearly all other elements are discarded in the process of supporting the guess that may have been incorrect in the first place. The process continues well into its latter phases before the assumption is clearly proven or disproven. In the process, much of the available facts and elements that belong to the set are discarded, ignored or misinterpreted to fit the premise.

Analogic, holistic processing can overlook factors as well. The only difference is that the entire premise isn’t compromised so far along into the process. There is always an element or factor implied in analogic reasoning called, “what is not there, what it isn’t, what could or should be there that wasn’t there.” This implied category is ever present and inherent in the process of its comparative analysis form.

In our example, the category includes a.) it isn’t on yellow legal paper or fancy note paper, b.) it wasn’t found put away nicely nor hidden though it may once have been, c.) it isn’t new, current nor recent, and d.) no one in our family may know Joey or ever have known Joey.

This example throughout indicates the basic processes of discovery, implementation and comparative analysis processing relationships among similar and dissimilar items without a goal-driven, determined outcome. It is different and human beings need both logical processing as well as analogic processing in order to do well, accomplish, create solutions to complex problems and real-world situations and to survive. That is why the human brain is made to use both approaches, not one to the exclusion of the other.

It is neither crazy, nor left-handed, nor sick, nor evil to use analogic holistic styles of thinking, processing information, creating and analysis. What is crazy is for each of us to be built for doing it in perfect capacity and not use it.

That social and oppressive tactics have been furthered over centuries to force the dominance of logic and the hindrance of all other forms and pathways of thinking is barbaric and ignorant. It borders on the sad fact that we have all been denied very inalienable rights and freedoms even within the confines and privacy of our own brains’ capacities and how we utilize them.

Not only for today, but for all the tomorrows before us, I would hope that each and every individual be allowed and encouraged to process, learn, use, develop, create with and explore with the abilities of both sides of their brain, not just one. And, that denial of this very basic freedom be changed.

A note about the example used –
As it turns out –

–> Joey isn’t a person – it’s a kangaroo on loan to a zoo.
–> Milk was spelled MILK  –> which stood for Martin Luther King Blvd in Atlanta (mis-abbreviated).
–> The numbers 1 , 3  –> 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. were show times (1,3) respectively.
–> 2.99 was $2.99, the discount admission price with a coupon.
–> 9 (a.m.) Was the time they would meet at the church with the group going to see it.

–> and the spray was from a Dr.Pepper that exploded in my kitchen when the note was sitting on the counter there.

Further,
daughter was working on her change the fuel pump project with the note in her back pocket as she laid on the ground to get to it.

She was planning to drive her car and go with some of her friends along and they got the discount coupons through a social services agency and the church group paid for breakfast.

–> and $2.99 wasn’t all it cost because they spent around $20.00 for lunch and gas to get there & back.

—– and “Why would I know somebody named Joey?” inquires daughter, now in her twenties which indicates something but I really don’t know what.

Which all leads to one very glamorous and educated truth –

“When all else fails, ask the sources involved and seek more information regardless of the method used to process any information.”  – quote from Cricket Diane C “Sparky” Phillips, 2008

How-To Do Analogic Processing & Analysis – Part I

The A-Z List Of Stuff That Will Help You Do This –

2008 Cricket Diane C “Sparky” Phillips

Cricket House Studios, USA1

1. As a practical matter – I am a firm believer in the 3×5 lined card . . .

a.) 3×5 lined cards (about 200)

b.) lined & un-lined paper (not drawing paper)

c.) graph paper (2 gauges) & isometric paper (grid)

d.) tracing paper

e.) lots of pencils & hand-held double sizes sharpener

f.) one black pen that writes smooth

g.) two red pencils, one red ink pen

h.) yellow highlighters, one pink pencil, one yellow pencil (with yellow color “lead”)

i.) some dry erase markers (different colors, sizes & styles) + some wet-erase markers and grease pencils

j.) post-it notes, flags & 4×4 notes, in assorted colors

k.) file folders, manilla & colors (box of 100, not legal size)

l.) non-reproducing blue pencils – at least three ( because, just because people heist them.)

m.) color sticky circles, assorted colors

n.) color 3×5 cards – yellow, pink, green, blue

o.) 3-4 (or more) magnifying rules, glasses, magnifiers with differing magnifications

p.) rulers with clear markings for in/cm and grids, some see-thru / some metal with cork backing

q.) dictionary & thesaurus & encyclopedias (not new ones)

r.) stapler, staples (standard size)

s.) paper clips – assorted colors (no uncoated metal, they rust.)

t.) spiral – bound notebooks, lined paper pads (pull-out)

u.) color index tabs – clear with place for label to be used on folders (rather than as divider tabs)

v.) cable television, am radio, internet high speed, library card, habit of returning books on time.

w.) 1″ notebooks with identifiers on them

x.) glue sticks and stickers variety for identifiers on notebooks, folders, 3×5 cards, etc.

y.) clear and magic cellophane tape

z.) a willingness to write in margins & use a highlighter & dog-ear pages of books & magazines that belong to you & a computer printer attached to your computer with extra ink cartridges and clean paper / cardstock

so –> also a computer, printer and handy to have some digital cameras or access to them. If all else fails, use the computer time at the library and buy an electric or manual typewriter from a thrift store or yard sale. Whatever it takes to make it work.

+ 3 Rules –

1. Sign and date what you write, this time – every time, (even notes, shopping lists, doodles).

2. Place name of resource, book, website on all notes from it (somewhere with “cont.” & book title on each page taken from it.)

3. Do not expect dictionaries and encyclopedias to contain all words & references in them. They don’t. Find on internet search engines or call reference librarian at local, central or University libraries and ask. Spell word for the librarian clearly and politely, concisely explain where you found it and request that its meaning be looked up for you.

Please thank the librarian each time you use this service and be pleasant even if they are not. Also, there are foreign language translators online and dictionaries, search engines for specific relevance, like engineering terms, chemistry, etc. Use them when it is applicable, it is much easier.
