The 12 Break-Thrus of the Next Decade by Jim Channon
Opportunities on the Event Horizon
 
  1. Oil companies realize they are liquid transportation companies and start to move fresh water to needy places on the planet.
  2. Major engineering companies respond to rising seas and create canals that take the excess water into barren lowlands inside the continents where it is needed.
  3. The national military forces of the planet merge to form natural security teams and restore their respective parts of the earth's forests, plant life, watersheds, wildlife and the biosphere above all that.
  4. That schools recognize that content is already available on line and change their courses to life skills, learning based pursuits, and a new partnership with nature.
  5. That Universities build upon the science of conscious evolution, a visionary mindset, and life force living intelligence and then structure their experience based curricula to that end.
  6. That government decentralizes into bioregions and organizes military units, school kids, fire departments and others to generate food foraging forests in all available sites for complete global food security.
  7. That neighborhoods take on a wide variety of energy producing solutions to become fully independent but not totally separate from the power grid.
  8. That web-based democracies attend to their regionally based constituents and use the global web intelligence system to optimize local living.
  9. That railheads, airports, and warehouses converge to be able to launch global air rescue missions that deliver major emergency living villages to all peoples globally within hours of a disaster.
  10. That the global public achieves a clear unifying identity and the pre-emptive political power to defang the nuclear arsenal and its fear based factions while offering alternative product lines for the military industrial complex.
  11. That we accept the notion that life is more likely to exist in the galaxy than not and prepare for the real benefits of new connections.
  12. That we embrace a new level of profound simplicity and reintroduce creativity as a replacement for things and mindless entertainment.

We seldom speak of holistic futures. The best of the past and the best of the imaginable future can be dynamically integrated for our new world and woven together for a grand new lifestyle with sustainable land development. The protofutures lab in Hawi is a social architecture research lab that refines the best of perma-culture, natural living, and essensual ancient practices into that working blend of magic that promises sustained exotic living in the heart of nature. "To hold the land in righteousness" the Hawaii motto, is a higher purpose that drives many of the new social inventions being modeled and studies here.
 
At Artesia, in North Kohala, Hawaii, a globally recognized futurist and social architect, Jim Channon, has begun the blending of many forms of global human.

Don't Make Me Get Obnoxious on Your Ass
 
It's 1976, long before music videos or The History Channel, you're the president of 20th Century Fox, and someone's pitching you a movie. "Let's take all the WWII footage Fox already owns," says the slick producer, "then reedit it to cover versions of Beatle songs, an action packed extravaganza in stereophonic sound. A film for, get this, hippies who are history buffs." You sit back in your leather chair and light up a stogie as visions of B52 bombers set to Magical Mystery Tour, outtakes from Tora Tora Tora set to Here Comes the Sun King, and Japanese troops on the march set to Tina Turner singing Come Together pop through your head. The bottom line, it's all post-production and too cheap to pass up. All This and World War II bombed royally but YouTube's got the preview.
 
A Fair(y) Use Tale explains copyright law and fair use with edits right out of dozens of Disney animated features. According to the site, "Professor Eric Faden of Bucknell University created this humorous, yet informative, review of copyright principles delivered through the words of the very folks we can thank for nearly endless copyright terms." Originally at Stanford Law School's Center for Internet and Society but also full of interesting comments at YouTube.
 
It came to me, out of the blue, a repressed memory from my video critic days, Zbigniew Rybczynski, a Polish filmmaker who made some of the most innovative short films I'd ever seen. Looked 'em up and couldn't find any of them online until I stumbled upon the lovely technique of misspelling someone's name, and you gotta figure that's gonna happen to a guy named Zbigniew Rybczynski. It seems all you have to do is add an extra "i" to Zbigniew in Google and voila, Zbig"i"niew Rybczynski's Tango, one of the most mind-boggling, brilliantly conceived and miraculously edited pieces of cinematic tomfoolery that's ever won an Oscar for Best Animated Short (1983). Oh yes, it's mandatory viewing, and if I ever hear that you haven't seen it, I'll turn really obnoxious and taunt you forever.

    "Across the world, a dangerous rumor has spread that could have catastrophic implications. According to legend, Iran's president has threatened to destroy Israel, or, to quote the misquote, 'Israel must be wiped off the map.' Contrary to popular belief, this statement was never made...
    "Before we get to the infamous remark, it's important to note that the "quote" in question was itself a quote they are the words of the late Ayatollah Khomenei, the father of the Islamic Revolution. Although he quoted Khomeini to affirm his own position on Zionism, the actual words belong to Khomeini and not Ahmadinejad. Thus, Ahmadinejad has essentially been credited (or blamed) for a quote that is not only unoriginal, but represents a viewpoint already in place well before he ever took office.
    "So what did Ahmadinejad actually say? To quote his exact words in Farsi: 'Imam ghoft een rezhim-e ishghalgar-e qods bayad az safheh-ye ruzgar mahv shavad.'
    "That passage will mean nothing to most people, but one word might ring a bell: rezhim-e. It is the word 'regime.' pronounced just like the English word with an extra 'eh' sound at the end. Ahmadinejad did not refer to Israel the country or Israel the land mass, but the Israeli regime. This is a vastly significant distinction, as one cannot wipe a regime off the map. Ahmadinejad does not even refer to Israel by name, he instead uses the specific phrase 'rezhim-e ishghalgar-e qods' (regime occupying Jerusalem)."

Acknowledgment of the Week
 
Disinfotainment Today is struggling between being an actual newspaper that pays attention to the outside world and simply describing the bizarre details of its personal life which are dubiously worthy of tabloid fiction. Torn between the admittedly impossible task of adequately describing the outside world and the innate desire to simply dwell in the egotistical world of memoir, Disinfotainment Today acknowledges that it knows where its been much more than where its going, and will strive to improve upon both.

Thanks,

Elmo Bacaroni

One of the most oxymoronic and obnoxious phrases in America today is this: "The working poor." We live in the richest nation in the history of the world, and it's morally abominable that anyone who works in this country is poor. Our economy is deliberately skewed by public policy. As a result, the vast portion of America's wealth, which is generated by all of us, flows to the few at the top, shortchanging the middle class and leaving millions of hard working Americans - many working two or three jobs - in poverty.

Edmund Fitzgerald

Hey, Marty...
 
                    This coming November 10th will be the 32nd anniversary of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald in Lake Superior. Everyone in our generation remembers Gordon Lightfoot's ballad about it, I'm sure...

                    This past week a very battered life ring from the Fitz was found on the rocky desolate shore of the Kewenaw peninsula 200 miles from where she foundered in Whitefish Bay...   WOODTV.com & WOOD TV8 - Grand Rapids news, weather, sports and video - Edmund Fitzgerald life ring found

                    Pardon me if I get emotional about this, but I was mariner on the upper lakes for 7 years with Coast Guard and the thought that there might have been arms around the ring when it first went into the water leaves a lump in my throat...

                    On the 5th anniversary in 1980 I was a new deck seaman on the Coast Guard cutter Bramble, Port Huron, Michigan. On that cold dark night I went all the way up to the flying bridge where our big brass ship's bell was at the base of the mast and slowly and loudly tolled the bell for the crew starting at the the time she reportedly went down. I rang the damn bell for them AND for me because I knew that I might have to face the Witch of November myself soon...

                                                    Yer the best and I welcome you back by saying I REALLY missed you! Can't wait for the rest of your trip report...

U.S. Visa Revoked

Lily Allen

British pop singer Lily Allen has no idea why her U.S. working visa was revoked, but she hopes she will be granted a new one for her planned September tour, her record company EMI Music said on Wednesday.

Allen was detained at Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday for five hours after she arrived from Australia. She was searched, but not strip searched as reported, Murray Chalmers, spokesman for EMI Music in London, said in a statement.

"The authorities decided to revoke her American O-1 work visa. She has no idea why she was singled out for such treatment," Chalmers said. "We are sure we have enough time to sort the situation before her next visit in September."

A report on the BBC Web site said Allen, 22, had been detained by U.S. authorities in connection with her arrest in June following an incident outside a London nightclub in March. She received a warning from police but was not charged with any crime.

Famous Farm On The Market

Woodstock

The famous farm near the alfalfa field that drew 400,000 people to Woodstock for three days of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll is up for sale. The asking price: $8 million.

Roy Howard, the current owner, is packing it in after years of tangling with local officials over permits for reunion gatherings to mark the 1969, three-day Woodstock music festival that helped ignite a generation.

Up for sale is the 2,000-square-foot house that belonged to dairy farmer Max Yasgur, along with a larger farmhouse, a barn and 103 bucolic acres about 80 miles north of New York City.

The nearby alfalfa field where the concert was held isn't included in the sale. It's owned by cable magnate Alan Gerry, who turned it into the 4,800-seat Bethel Woods Center last summer.

Magic mushrooms are seen at the Procare farm in Hazerswoude, central Netherlands, Friday Aug. 3, 2007. Procare is the Netherlands' largest grower of hallucinatory mushrooms, supplying more than half the market, a legal business in The Netherlands as long as they are sold fresh. It's high season for tourists, but for many the emphasis is on the word high. Thousands come specifically to smoke marijuana without fear of getting into trouble with the police. A relatively small number are interested in taking a 'trip' within a trip, using psychedelic mushrooms.

The new paintings will hang among works by European masters including Picasso, Munch and Toulouse-Lautrec, Anja Richter of the museum said.

Not Gay Enough

Prime-Time TV

Are U.S. television networks gay enough? Not yet, but ABC is getting close, according to a gay-rights group.

The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) has given the Walt Disney Co.-owned network the highest marks of any of the five major broadcast networks in the group's first-ever report rating depictions of gay, lesbian and transgender characters and issues on prime-time TV.

No network was rated as excellent. But ABC received a grade of "good" with 171 hours of gay-inclusive TV last season, accounting for 15 percent of its prime-time programming.

The fledgling, youth-oriented CW network, formed from the merger of the now-defunct WB and UPN networks, scored the second-highest marks from GLAAD, rated as "fair" with 12 percent of its programming hours found to be gay-inclusive.

Sues Over `Big Fat' Movie Profits

Tom Hanks

Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson and Nia Vardalos have sued one of the producers of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," alleging they are still owed profits from the 2002 sleeper hit.

The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, seeks unspecified monetary damages and a full accounting of the profits.

Vardalos, who wrote and starred in the film, and producers Hanks, Wilson and Gary Goetzman claim Gold Circle Films owes them their percentage "share of net profits." The lawsuit also names Big Wedding Prods. and Vortex Pictures as defendants.

The lawsuit said the movie cost $5 million to make. It has grossed about $370 million in theatrical sales, according to Box Office Mojo, a tracking firm. According to the plaintiffs, Gold Circle maintains the film's aggregate gross receipts total $287 million.

Wants Lawsuit Dismissed

Nancy Grace

Lawyers for CNN and Nancy Grace have asked a judge to dismiss a lawsuit that accuses the TV host of pushing the mother of a missing toddler to suicide through aggressive questioning.

CNN and Grace say the wrongful death lawsuit brought by Melinda Duckett's family would "severely chill" journalists' coverage of missing-persons cases, according to federal court documents filed Friday.

"The law does not permit people to recover money from reporters who ask routine questions while covering ongoing stories of national significance to the public," lawyer Judith Mercier wrote.

Young Translator

Harry Potter

Was it wizardry that guided him? Or too much free time? Whatever it was, a determined French 16-year-old accomplished a mystifying feat in translating all 759 pages of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" within days of its July 21 release and posting it online.

The problem: It was illegal, and now the teen has spent a night in jail and faces charges of intellectual property violation.

"He just wanted to get the book online," and did not appear to be seeking commercial gain, Aix Prosecutor Olivier Rothe said Wednesday. The boy apparently compiled the entire translation himself, Rothe said.

The group and its audience of 14 people (two of whom are seen at left) played for 30 minutes at an altitude that according to their GPS was 6,068 meters (19,908 feet) above sea level, and plan to present this to the Guinness Book of World Records as the highest concert ever played.

The Show Must Go On

'The Early Show'

In television, it's never a good sign when it starts raining in your indoor studio less than 40 minutes before airtime.

That's what happened to "The Early Show" on CBS Wednesday, forcing a mad scramble across Manhattan in a downpour to broadcast the morning news program out of Katie Couric's empty studio.

Intense storms that disrupted New York City's morning rush hour also caused water to back up on the plaza outside CBS' Fifth Avenue street-side studio. Besides flooding the newsroom and studio, the water leaked into a control room packed with electrical equipment one floor below.

More than 40 people rushed onto Fifth Avenue in the rain and hailed cabs. They needed to get to CBS' broadcast studio more than six long blocks west for the show's opening at 7 a.m.

Challenge Old Evoluton Theory

Fossils

Surprising research based on two African fossils suggests our family tree is more like a wayward bush with stubby branches, challenging what had been common thinking on how early humans evolved.

The discovery by Meave Leakey, a member of a famous family of paleontologists, shows that two species of early human ancestors lived at the same time in Kenya. That pokes holes in the chief theory of man's early evolution - that one of those species evolved from the other.

The old theory is that the first and oldest species in our family tree, Homo habilis, evolved into Homo erectus, which then became human, Homo sapiens. But Leakey's find suggests those two earlier species lived side-by-side about 1.5 million years ago in parts of Kenya for at least half a million years. She and her research colleagues report the discovery in a paper published in Thursday's journal Nature.

Surfaces In Moscow

Hitler's Record Collection

Part of the music collection stored at the Führerbunker, Hitler's underground shelter during World War II, has been discovered in Moscow, where it lay in the attic of a former Soviet officer for decades. The Nazi leader apparently enjoyed listening to records made by his enemies.

On a mid-May day in 1945 in war-ravaged Berlin. Lev Besymenski, the captain of the military intelligence service of the First Belarusian Front, is given a mission: Together with two other officers, he is to inspect the Reich Chancellery -- stormed just a few days before -- including the underground bunker where Hitler stayed during the war and eventually committed suicide.

Besymenski is an expert, and he also speaks German. He served as an interpreter during the arrest of Field Marshal Friedrich Paulus in Stalingrad in 1943 and had only recently, on 1 May, translated the news for Stalin from German General Hans Krebs that Hitler had died. Later he will reveal to the world what the Soviets long treated as something akin to a state secret -- that they found the remains of Hitler's corpse in the garden of the Reich Chancellery.

But on this day, he is standing in the imposing building on Berlin's Wilhelmstrasse. He has meticulously searched the headquarters of the Nazi regime for several hours. Suddenly the Soviet commander responsible for the building asks him what souvenir he would like to take with him.

In Memory

Melville "Mel" Shavelson

Melville "Mel" Shavelson, who wrote, directed and produced dozens of films with such stars as Lucille Ball, Jimmy Cagney and Frank Sinatra and was twice nominated for Academy Awards, died Wednesday at age 90.

Shavelson worked as a gag writer for Bob Hope's radio show in the 1930s before going on to write or co-write more than 35 movies and direct a dozen.

He was nominated for best screenplay Oscars for "The Seven Little Foys," the 1956 film that starred Hope as legendary vaudevillian Eddie Foy, and for the 1958 romantic comedy "Houseboat." He also directed both films.

Shavelson both wrote and directed "Cast a Giant Shadow," as well as "The Five Pennies," "It Started in Naples," "On the Double," "A New Kind of Love," and "The War Between Men and Women."

He served three terms as president of the Writers Guild of America, West, and was on the writing-program faculty at the University of Southern California.

His autobiography, "How to Succeed in Hollywood Without Really Trying, P.S. - You Can't!" was published on April 1, his 90th birthday.

Shavelson is survived by his wife, Ruth; a son, Richard Shavelson; a daughter, Lynne Joiner; and three grandchildren.

Hal Fishman

Hal Fishman, the longtime news anchor for independent Los Angeles television station KTLA, died at his home Tuesday morning, less than a week after being diagnosed with colon cancer. He was 75.

Fishman, a 47-year news veteran, had anchored KTLA's 10 p.m. newscast since 1975 -- which made him the longest-running anchor in TV history, according to the station -- and also served as the show's managing editor.

He joined KTLA in 1965, the same year as the Watts riots. His coverage of that event helped the station win Emmy and Peabody awards.

He is survived by a wife and son.
