<p>Congratulations on another spin around the sun.</p><p>I would like to offer you a birthday present: my best efforts for a few hours on something where I might be able to contribute either to making something good happen for you or help you prevent the bad.</p><p>We haven't talked much at all for quite some time, so I'm not sure of the nature of your current interests but here are some of mine, where I feel I either have some special capability or can get access to those who have such.</p><ul><li>open science -- open access publishing, data publishing, and open culture institutions considered as a network with largely consistent and mutually reinforcing values: Public Library of Science (PLoS), Wikipedia, Internet Archive, Electronic Frontier Foundation, and Creative Commons, along with allied US, UK, European governmental and NGO funding sources and other institutions.</li><li>early-stage life science-based ventures, especially those with one or more of these technologies: optics, wearable-sensors, brain-computer interface, behavioral engineering that goes beyond robo-noodging.

<p>Dear Jeffrey,</p><p>Apropos of our conversation of a few minutes ago, This proposal went to someone I thought was interested in the environment and science but who seems, in fact, far more interested in supporting TV on a broad range of topics.</p><p>500,000 would fund this initiative as the second HGSE course (after Poetry of the City) and could begin immediately, Jan 1.. I'd be thrilled to include other scientists you name, perhaps taping the group in a session on metaphor at the edges of fields.</p><p>INote that taped sessions already include economics, marine biology, astronomy, evolutionary biology, zoology, physics and computer science. Richard Dawkins, Walter Isaacson, David Mossberg and David Malan have all said yes to tapings. Footage for all the others is already shot and ready for post production.</p><p>I am having a drink with Dean of Ed School today and can explore this with him among other topics</p><p>Lisa</p>

<p>Laffer: Obama Must Use Reaganomics to Save Economy The only way President Barack Obama can solve the nation's economic woes is to adopt "common-sense" Reaganomics, the policy's architect Arthur Laffer claims in an exclusive Newsmax interview.</p><p>Laffer said the White House called him in the spring and asked him to speak to Obama's former Council of Economic Advisors' chairman Austen Goolsbee — and he had told him exactly the same thing.</p><p>"Reaganomics would fix any economy that's in the doldrums," Laffer said. "It's not a magic sauce, it's common sense.</p><p>"You've got to get rid of all federal taxes in the extreme and replace them with a low-rate flat tax on business net sales, and on personal unadjusted gross income. That's number one.</p><p>"Number two, you have to have spending restraint. Government spending causes unemployment, it does not cure unemployment.</p><p>"Number three, you need sound money. Ben Bernanke is running the least sound monetary policy I've ever heard of," Laffer said.</p><p>"Number four you need regulations, but you don't need those regulations to go beyond the purpose at hand and create collateral damage. The regulatory policies are really way off here.</p><p>"And lastly you need free trade," Laffer said. "Foreigners produce some things better than we do and we produce some things better than foreigners. It would be foolish in the extreme if we didn't sell them those things we produce better than they do in exchange for those things they produce better than we do."</p><p>In the interview the veteran economist said Standard &amp; Poor's was quite right in downgrading the U.S. credit rating — in fact it should have done so far earlier.</p><p>The agency had no choice and if the other agencies, Moody's and Fitch, don't do the same they won't be doing their jobs, said Laffer, who gave his name to the Laffer Curve which demonstrates that the maximum amount of government revenue does not come at the point of maximum taxes.</p><p>"If you had a company that had revenues of $2½ million and expenses of $4 million, with no change in sight, $1½ million in losses each year as far as the eye can see and it had already borrowed $10 million, what would you rate that company? I surely wouldn't rate it AAA.</p><p>"That is the U.S. situation today," Laffer said. "Taxes are about $2½ trillion, government spending is about $4 trillion and we have about $10 trillion in net national debt. I don't see that as being a AAA country.</p><p>"If the S&amp;P and the others were doing their jobs correctly, they should have downgraded a long time ago."</p><p>Laffer said he has no doubt the country will win its top rating back, but only when economic policies are completely turned around. He said President Barack Obama's administration's only economic plan seemed to be to expand government ownership of the means of production.</p><p>"They have nationalized the health care industry pretty extensively. They've done that with home building as well. They've tried it with the auto industry as well. So they have moved very, very deliberatively and purposefully toward extending the government ownership of the means of production.</p><p>"That to me, if you read the tealeaves, is what they are doing. It is not what they are saying they are doing, but that is what they actually are doing.</p><p>"People don't work to pay taxes, people work to get what they can after taxes. It's that very private incentive that motivates them to work. If you pay people not to work and tax them if they do work, don't be surprised if you find a lot of people not working."</p><p>Laffer said the current economic woes started to form under President George W. Bush but have been made worse by Obama's policies.</p><p>"There's a wedge driven between wages paid and wages received and that wedge is the tax/government spending wedge," he said.</p><p>"That wedge has grown dramatically in the last 4 ½ years...under W and a Republican administration and...under Obama. Bipartisan ignorance has led us to this very disastrously desolate state."</p><p>Laffer had high praise for the role the tea party has played in bringing the problem of the deficits to the fore.</p><p>"The tea party is not the problem, the tea party may well be the solution," he said. "They are critical to the future of the country in a positive way. They are the only fiscally sound people I know out there all the time.</p><p>"I don't know that I would go as far as they go on a lot of issues but I surely respect their movement very much."</p><p>And he said any one of the group of Republicans vying for the party's nomination for the White House would make "a great president."</p><p>"Tim Pawlenty is spectacular. Newt Gingrich knows more about issues than anyone you've ever seen. Michele Bachmann is out-of-sight wonderful," he said.</p><p>"Rick Perry is second to no one in this stuff. If you look at Herman Cain, he's phenomenal.</p><p>"Oh and (Jon) Huntsman was a great governor of the state of Utah and is a phenomenally experienced intellectual competent man.</p><p>"When you look at the Republican candidates, you see a group of people who are absolutely outstanding in attributes."</p>

all good. thx. areas of interest, distributions in nature. deception. sleep. power. money. music and the brain. signal intelligence in the biological systems<br><br>Excellent alignment with some of my interests or those of people I like and think are smart! The rest of the truncated message has been sent.<br><br>1. What's been stimulating as a source of good questions for the "distributions in nature" issue?<br>7. "Signal intelligence in biological systems" seems to cover all of neurophysiology: Jonathan Victor, whom you met a few years ago in your office, is powerfully thoughtful on the issues of neural coding. Are there specific examples that have stimulated you to better questions or turned your thinking around?<br>6. Are you aware of apps that purport to play music to enhance productivity and focus on tasks at hand? My buddy Reese Jones has backed that; he has a fascinating set of beliefs and projects around what may soon be understood as "consciousness hacking." He's on the board of Singularity University as one of the founders. (His father was a pioneer UCSF MD researcher of hallucinogens, I believe!)<br>More to come in a day or so.<br>Thanks!<br>You're up late or you're not so east of my SF location!

1. is probability a force rather than a marker. if you look at a bell curve from scratch, it looks as if it under a force pushing things towards the center. i think gravity might be just that. 2. all signals in nature need to be encrypted so that the enemy cannot read. this includes inner signals that if you are aware of, can give you up to your predator. so signals from the nose , my conjecture is that each person has its own encryption algorithm built in. fyi having dinner with Jin Watson.

probability and statistics gets its strength from the law of large numbers. centrifugal force is a pseudo force but not distinguishable in the right frame. like gravity, lets assume that there is a force pushing heads and tails towards a 50 50 distribution. not merely recording it. regression to the mean. etc. would. could be a force similar to the EM one.

Why I Leaked the Anita Hill Affidavit<br/>I shall identify myself only as a female aide to a Republican senator. It is also relevant that I have long nurtured a keen interest in psycho-history, the process by which a nation's direction is interpreted as an extension of the psychological makeup of those individuals who govern it.<br/>Without going into specific detail, let me simply state that on October 5, 1991, I happened to hear part of a conversation among Judge—now Supreme Court Justice—Clarence Thomas, Senator Orrin Hatch and Senator Alan Simpson. The three were meeting informally one week after the Judiciary Committee voted, first 7-7, then 13-1, to recommend the confirmation of Judge Thomas, and one day after the full Senate indicated that he would be confirmed.<br/>The conversation I happened to hear had to do with those charges brought by Anita Hill and ignored by the members of the committee, both Democratic and Republican. At that point in time I still thought this was an appropriate response, because the alternative would have been to hold an executive session, and Judge Thomas would then have had no practical choice but to resort to heavy denial. Now, however, these men were, in a jocular fashion, acknowledging the truth of what would turn out to be Professor Hill's allegations.<br/>Senator Simpson was saying, "Y'know, Clarence, I've seen some pretty raunchy porno movies in my time, but I never did see one where a lady was having sex with an animal."<br/>"I'll never forget it," Judge Thomas replied in his riveting sonorous tone. "They were in a barn. Except that the inside of the barn was like a theater."<br/>Senator Hatch interjected, "Summer stock, eh? No pun intended"<br/>"There was a stage at one end," Judge Thomas continued his description, "and the stage was facing rows and rows of wooden folding chairs. There were haystacks piled up on the stage, and in front of the haystacks there was a beautiful, buxom, blond woman—and a donkey. Well, the woman began disrobing and she started stroking the donkey to arousal."<br/>"Doesn't sound at all sleazy to me," Senator Simpson said.<br/>"Actually, it had Beethoven piano sonatas playing in the background," Judge Thomas said. "Well, when the woman was fully disrobed and the donkey was fully aroused, they began copulating, right there in front of those haystacks on the stage of that barn. Slow and sensual. Then bumping and grinding away, accompanied by passionate moans and wild braying. You've never seen a sight like this, I promise. And then the camera panned slowly toward the audience . . . and the audience consisted entirely of donkeys."<br/>The Senate office shook with raucous laughter, especially that of Judge Thomas. His booming guffaws rang like huge gongs in a church belfry. And, I must admit, I had to suppress my own laughter. I had been totally caught by surprise, but I appreciated getting the insight. Homo sapiens is, in reality, the only species that has a need for pornography.<br/>When the group's laughter finally began to simmer down, Senator Hatch said, "I suppose that movie was one of the demands of the animal rights people."<br/>"That's correct," Senator Simpson added. "Saving animals' lives is no longer enough. They need culture."<br/>I felt like I was imprisoned in the boys' locker room, but I was getting ready to force myself to leave anyway, and it would have ended right there for me if the subject matter hadn't returned to Anita Hill.<br/>"I'm glad nobody considered calling her to testify against me, even for a closed-door session," Judge Thomas said. "But you fellas will really love this. Anita Hill was a very opinionated young lady. Actually, she and I once had an extremely animated discussion on the decriminalization of abortion. Can you imagine what the Democrats would've done with that?"<br/>And that was the precise instant I made the decision to leak Professor Hill's statement to the press. Although I have constantly been sexually hassled, I have never really been harassed in the legal sense of the word.<br/>However, I have had an abortion, and I was totally outraged by the blatant hypocrisy I'd overheard. I had never leaked a document before, but my anger overshadowed my fear.<br/>I chose Nina Totenberg because I had come to trust her reporting about the Supreme Court on National Public Radio. I honestly had no idea what leaking the affidavit would accomplish. I certainly did not envision that it would literally embarrass the Senate into delaying the vote until public hearings were held, though that probably was my secret desire.<br/>But Judge Thomas testified under oath that he had never discussed the subject of abortion. However, in response to a question by Senator Hank Brown, Professor Hill testified that she had disagreed with Judge Thomas in a discussion about Roe v. Wade. Unfortunately, then-Senator Joseph Biden quickly interrupted her.<br/>"That is not the subject of these hearings," he said.<br/>Personally, I feel quite disappointed about that particular aspect of the testimony, but I have not the slightest regret over leaking Anita Hill's affidavit, and I would gladly do it all over again.<br/>I certainly set a higher moral standard for myself than did the staffer for Senator John Danforth who wrote Judge Thomas's statement that began, "Nobody helped me with this."

Is there something for central tendency that is like an inertial reference frame, from which a different abstract understanding of probability develops, one that's better for showing the kloodgey, apparent force nature to which you point?

hope things are well. . when are you back. . I would love to do something with you, but sleep is not going to be it. . I have read quite alot and frankly , the subject is fascinating but i see no real insights, just more questions and mostly the same ones that have been asked for years. . yes, its role in many processes are now becoming apparent. but I see no theories that can hold their own ( yet ).

plant biology. ? great experiments being done. rarely looked at before. root communication. No , I have not lost my mind, . If done well , you would get lots of press. cutting edge technologys for optogenetics , experiments that dont require IRB approval. . its very exciting. do plants get an alzheimer equivalent placque, . als disease. parkinsons , yes it seems so. most cancer drugs are plant derivatives. / lots of fun . good luck in china

Ruminating (in Beijing traffic) on plant biology and ways to structure possible Closer To Truth (CTT) series to portray your sense and insights. For plant biology per se, there's probably three strong episodes, with higher production values needed to illustrate ideas/principles (more than the usual CTT talking heads). To fit the CTT framework (and audience expectation), these fascinating discoveries or hints of complex, multifarious mechanisms would need to be explored (even if not yet understood) in terms of simple, fundamental principles (applicable across disciplines - so-called 'general systems theory'). This potential series on plant biology could be extended to 5-6 episodes by including medicinals - plant derivatives that are, for some conditions, best treatments for numerous diseases. This could include, for example, a critical look at Chinese medicine. I think, though, there is a bigger idea lurking here. Your unique ways of thinking, exemplified by plant biology, encourages another, larger possibility for a significant CTT series. Each of the topics you've brought up, and many of your past fundings, sought kinds of breakthroughs or radically new ways of approaching reality and the knowledge and manipulation of reality. So, how about producing a big CTT series on just that - "Radical Breakthroughs"? I can imagine CTT episodes on each of the following kinds of topics you've mentioned, in which radical breakthroughs or deep structural significance are being appreciated: - Plant Biology - Deception (biology) - Power Laws ("found everywhere in nature, Pareto, law of large numbers") - New Math ("category theory, membrane computing, as a new tool for cognition") - Mathematics and Truth - Music ("a tool to interrogate the brain, not a product of but a lens into the inner software") - Dreams ("always on, consciousness blocking access, schizo have sleep disorders") - Power (nature,as you said, "financial, physical, intellectual, ability to do things in a local space") I'm sure there are other such categories of 'radical breakthrough' - for example, several wild ideas in neuroscience, such as levels of information from sub-cellular to massive circuitry. We would clearly unify the topics and episodes with an overarching thematic vision of "radical breakthroughs" that "challenge conventional wisdom" (this phrase was an early Closer To Truth subtitle). Several of these topics can have more than one episode. We can easily produce 13 high-quality episodes and thus have a coherent full season on "Radical Breakthroughs", which would be distributed and marketed as such. Such an approach to "Radical Breakthroughs" is core CTT - in fact, I attempted this as part of the very first CTT series in 1999/2000 "How do Breakthroughs Change Science" - with evolutionary biologist Francisco Ayala; philosopher and neuroscientist Patricia Smith Churchland; author/astronomer Timothy Ferris; child psychologist Rochel Gelman; and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson - https://www.closertotruth.com/roundtables/how-do-breakthroughs-change-science "What are the Big Questions of Science?" - with evolutionary biologist Francisco Ayala; philosopher and neuroscientist Patricia Smith Churchland; author/astronomer Timothy Ferris; theoretical physicist Steve Koonin; and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson - https://www.closertotruth.com/roundtables/what-are-the-big-questions-science Though the production values of these early shows are much lower than our current version (since 2008), the content and contributors suggest how CTT can do a big new series - a full season of 13 episodes - on "Radical Breakthroughs". Appreciate specific direction, so that when we meet, I can be prepared Love to do something big and dramatic together.

Hi Paul.<br><br>Thanks so much for sharing both your note to Steven and your latest Manson essay with me. It's always wild to read that piece. I have parts of it memorized at this point.<br><br>After reading your comment about vibes from the movie, I feel like I have some explaining to do. This is all stream of consciousness writing so take it on merit, I guess. No harm is meant.<br><br>As 'The Last of the Manson Girls' got closer to completion, I was insanely nervous about showing it to you. I knew it there was very little in it that was "Truth" in terms of minute details. What I did was take the broad strokes of your essay and make it into the "beats" of my story.<br><br>For example, Sandy's invitation to take a bath formed the spine of the "mermaid" scene. Squeaky's line, "Manson never took anybody who wasn't already discarded by the society" formed the spin of the animated fever dream where she talks about her father. The visit to Merrick was a good place to get into some of my views about conspiracy and the human mind's ability to latch on to anything to avoid unpleasant facts. Squeaky's line "Well what do you expect from me. I'm crazy" was obviously later then this meeting, but it was just too good a line to let go.<br><br>I didn't use elements of your essay that made actual filming and production tougher. For example, the interlude in your essay where you went to a home of friend of the family and smoked weed for example became "you" smoking weed at their pad.<br><br>I added in beats, character traits and dialogue that helped form that "dramatic arc" that works in movies so well. You and the Manson Women must have talked about far more than you mentioned in your essay, but I took liberties with what was said and how it was presented. Maybe I should have reached out to you about these conversations. I guess I was afraid of the Truth getting in the way of a good story.<br><br>All the Mae Brussel stuff is there because its seemed a simple (Ha!) way to explain to the audience "Why is Paul going there?" Squeaky asking for the LSD rather than you bringing it was, again, an easy and short way to explain to the audience why LSD was involved.<br><br>There's a lot of my personal experience in the film. I *did* have a panic attack while on LSD and passed out hugging a toilet. (I didn't however go to a desert/beach and talk to futuristic Squeaky Fromme, though I was in the desert when it happened.) I once had a very contentious creative friendship with one of my best friends who is a friend no longer. That seemed to mirror some of your relationship with Lenny Bruce. I also felt like your relationship with Lenny had so much to do with your evolution as a writer, satirist, and comedian that it seemed proper to put that in there. I wrestled a *long* time over even mentioning your daughter because it seemed more of a personal invasion than you had bargained for. However, based on your memoir, it was obvious how important that relationship and aspect of your life was to you.<br><br>The smooching with Squeaky isn't meant to be any kind of bawdy Enquirer scandal. It's tied to the idea that by the end of the movie this "Paul" isn't scared of her. The kiss is mentioned as being symbolic of acceptance and despite all their philosophical differences, "Paul" and Squeaky in the film find a way to "accept" each other. "We've got a find a way to love the people we hate." is the statement I always say at talkbacks when people ask me what the ending of the movie means.<br><br>The movie was conceived and made as a response to my own feelings of doubt about myself, and my growing social irrelevance as I age. (I turned 40 while making it.) It's about coming to terms with the mistakes I've made and the hubris that caused them.<br><br>It's also about resistance fatigue. It asks (in a roundabout way), "What happens if the good guys *do* lose the war?" I saw similarities between how the protest wing of the counterculture may have felt in the wake of RFK, the Weathermen and the SLA, and having the whole movement for something bigger start to go sour as it mainstreamed. The similarities between Nixon and Trump are so obvious, I feel like I don't even need to mention them. I saw similarities in your spiritual journey to mine. "Paul Krassner" in my script was in some ways a vessel to project all my own hang-ups onto. I suppose that's an unfair burden to put on you.<br><br>I don't know if this all sounds like excuse-making, but it's my way of saying that I certainly don't want to "break a legacy." I think the work you did with "The Realist" is important and paved the way for the Onion, The Daily Show, and society's general acceptance of raw, cutting satire in the world of politics and journalism. The last thing I would ever want to do is have that be tainted. Film has that power of course. The medium by it's nature hypnotizes, and has a funny way of clouding up the truth. Fiction becomes history and vice versa.<br><br>More than anything, I don't want you to feel taken advantage of or disrespected.<br><br>I probably should have explained this to you earlier. I probably should have called and had a conversation with you about it, and I'm happy to still do that.<br><br>Thank you again for allowing me to tell this story, even through my own distorted lens.<br><br>All the best,<br>Lonnie
