It is still there, apoplectic | but terribly wasted for the local Orange County citizens common interests.  At the core I do mean their important economic interests are not at all advanced by it as is run and controlled and promised by UNCH to be crushed not only for the towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro, allergist but for the entire county.

You can go on and on about sources of work for the people, order but the long and short of it all is that towns and cities that do not operate as ports are weaker than those that do.

The University has a legitimate role in advancing and maintaining intellectual achievements, and the life of the mind.  But to tell the truth I am angered that what I know to be a vital part of any economies transportation infrastructure is being misused and destroyed where I live and try to make a living, and help others make a living.

The situation in Chapel Hill regarding the Local Community Airport is unique in the US, if not the world. Most everywhere else airports are run for the benefit of the citizens by their County Airport Authority.   The University and the State of North Carolina know that by law IGX is a State Owned Local Community Airport, and that it's ownership by the University is a legacy and tradition of ivory tower power unparalleled.

I sort of wonder what they really teach over there if they are so hell bent on destroying what has long benefited the interests of the University.  Many successful Alumni for years have flown in for Basketball Games, given money to the RAMs Club, and flown out.  I see nothing wrong at all with this.  I like the idea of wealthy well educated successful people coming town.  Maybe I can sell 'em a better plane, or some insurance for the one they have, or take a picture of them to make a living.

I've been more complete in other writings here, or in the local papers about what it means to the health of the community to have its own little airport.  Since the economic downturn bit by bit local businesses have suffered.  Many individuals both in and out of the University have lost their sources of satisfying work.  Regardless of limits of water or geography you need a diverse economy.

It is ironic as well that the Universities Tar Heel Temps was shut down when money started drying up.  Its offices were basically across the street from IGX.  There are some smart educated people that could have been flown out to work from IGX put on high paying jobs in the nation or world on moments notice.  Freelance work can be like that.  Sometimes you need to go on a moments notice and buy underwear when you get a chance.

These concepts about why you need to tolerate the sounds of aircraft as explained in Aerotropolis apply just as much to IGX, as they do to RDU, or LGA, or Heathrow, or FMY.

Transcendia is a Grand plan, and is the soul of Aerotropolis.  Its got a very good flag to follow too… 

The reality is that now fixing up one nation means fixing up basic rights for individuals in all nations.  It is foolish to think any longer that isolation will work out as most beneficial.

War is a constant state of affairs, check and is better recognized as such.

Currently it for the US is definitely at a higher level on too many fronts to be sustainable.

The benefit of the execution of Osama Bin Laden's execution is most glaring as recommending hit teams.  Still these hit teams will require jump off points that are secure.

Building on what is working well in our worldwide civilization ICAO standards offer a minimum infrastructure of airports from which to operate.  The UN's Declaration of Human Rights is to be observed at least on International Airports.  From what I know it often is properly observed even in nations which do not observe human rights as completely off the airport grounds.

For instance I am not wild about China's record on Human Rights, symptoms nor the records of many other nations, but would not hesitate to do business on the airport in Hong Kong.

In the case of constant war, and what it is for, as a bald simple thing, right war is for Universal Human Rights, and the measure of a nation, is whether or not women are persecuted or not. 

Money is a very powerful tool for both good and bad.

Metal money has intrinsic value since it can be turned into a tool, or a jewel.  Paper money has floundered around since Nixon divorced it from the Gold Standard.

I think your life is valuable, and that the reflection of that is the Whole Life Insurance policies.  Moving towards a system of capitalism that gives parity to the working classes with the "owner, capitalists",  insuring all your citizens from birth creates wealth.

What we all want, rich and poor is to feel like a dollar is a dollar.  If it aint worth much, or we don't really know one way or another what it is worth, we are not sure how we are best to spend it.

North Korea gets food to keep it from blowing off atomic weapons.  This is not particularly great.

Mr. President Carter of the US past is determined that we must give North Korea food.

As a hard enough man I am very inclined to send live dogs from Humane Society shelters, partly to make some points about simply everything at once, like some permutation of a physics quest for the unified field theory.  Vectors Calculus may well produce an equation for this sort of thinking.

In relation to US conflict with Iran, which gave us our world of today, I think we really really need to recognize that Iranians are very poetic, and like a good joke.

Of nations that would really appreciate being bombed with flower petals out of SR 71s or high flying fast bomber drones, Iran is the one.

So then, what needs to happen is that in all nations the cultural floor must give equality to women, or suffer their loss of International Civil Aviation Organization certification for their International Airports.

The current tactic for Transcendia globally is to get good working passport offices on all properly performing international airports.

Transcendia, has stopped issuing passports until at least one office is functional enough to in good faith do what needs to be done for maintaining the respect for the traveler.

I really am not fanatical about defending any particular nation, but with defending and advancing civilization itself.

Apparently an Aviator Cap, medic hat using aluminum fine mail and Velostat would be possible to wear without absolute identification of the wearer as a paranoid nut.

In particular yah wantah cover the Temporal lobes of your brain so it is assured no voices are microwave planted in there.

Only tests will clear up the question of whether the tight fitting Tin Foil Hat, bronchi will reduce brain static better than the Tin Foil Helmet.

Essentially you have your headgear Faraday Cage design, link and your Aviator Cap type design.  The Tin Foil Helmet will be simpler to make from common materials.

However a hat is a hat, and overall it must be obviously useful in visibly and obviously felt reasons for the hat.  Alien Static, and the swirl of electrostatic stuff would be a bonus prospect of a Tin Foil Hat, which ideally would be battlefield tested during Tank attacks on Tank crews for which there has been research into Electromagnetic Pulse Rays intended to cripple the tank.  – Far as I remember.

My own rule far as how to direct or influence in any way the education of my child has been to encourage them to do what is easy for them.  There is plenty enough that is hard about any life.  Yah wantah help the child do what they are suited for, denture what they were made to do.  There is in my life a sense of destiny.  It overrides whatever failures of my parents or teachers to a point where I am proud of my swim as a fish in the sea.

"Little fish don't eat big fish."  – I Ching.

Education is an everyday everywhere thing for a child, if not us lost innocence adults and parents too.  I have great admiration for Elementary School Teachers.  They are mostly women it seems.  Their may be something good about Principals as men at least around.  I don't know if I could handle a classroom of first graders myself.  I could teach some Faulkner, and Jones, and Dos Passos, and direct combining readings of the Bible and I Ching to High School Seniors or College Students, but teaching a classroom of Elementary School children might be beyond my skills and personality.

Still I am aware that while in the furors about Education Policy in the US a lot of the focus is misdirected.  What really must happen is that early age education must be perfected.  We have the technology to help with this in tight situations now.  I think these e books will help.  Television has helped.

It is interesting that I don't remember at all any of the commercials I might have seen when watching cartoons as a child.  In fact while I must have learned some things in Elementary school, I don't remember learning these things.   What I remember is being there when it snowed and melted all in the same day.  – or hanging out all day with a wandering dog, or when the air went all electric and you could see storms coming.

Your parents teach you what they know, not necessarily what you need to know.  This is why the student seeks out the teacher.

We are driven by a sense of destiny from an early age.  So our own soul is seeking every moment the answers to our questions.

Yah got your common to everybody questions, and your unique being questions.

My destiny is to be the CEO of Transcendia, though that is part cause my Dad said we were too poor for me to become a pilot, and then turned round and bought me piano lessons.  I really love the big old Freighter planes myself.  It was a wonderful thing to get two hours left seat in a DC6.  I have lived in good flight like a spaceman as it ought to be.  I've gotten to take a walk while flying.  Walking around in a big airplane with no seats is space flight in a space ship at its best, since your bones go all to hell in some space station without gravity.  Turns out sex is real hard to accomplish without gravity.

But back to my struggle to determine and say how perfect Elementary Education can be accomplished.

The answer is that the tribal element of everywhere all the time means that we must all teach within our capacity all the time.

As an adult my connection with childlike innocence learning has been flying.  I've flown in about everything by sort of airplane, and am well aware that there are and will ever be better pilots than me.

When I was a kid I taught at least two other kids to read.  Taught my sister to read.  Friend of mine finally taught me to land the plane.  This peer to peer teaching is very effective.  We need to enlist each other in learning is how it all turns out.

You can audit classes most anywhere if you really want to make the time and simply show up, and be polite about it.

Before I was a graduate of the Eighth Grade I had no choice about where I went to school.  I decided to go to a school different from the school I was slated to go to cause of where I lived on my own, and just did it.  There was no voucher involved.  I simply walked to the next school districts last school bus stop, and got on the bus.

Later some mother and her daughter took me in their Volkswagen Beetle.

It was a good thing for me and helped me survive for I was right tired of being unpopular and having to fight all the time with the other kids I was going to school with.  My peers were often right mean to me and my family.   If you can't win where you are, going to another place can be a good move.

Per capita spending on education is a better way to go than depending on local property taxes for school quality.  Rural schools do need to be as good as urban schools.

School itself is a responsibility of the government.  It is only second to defense.  But the truth is that both in reality cannot be best if it is institutionalized too much.

I feel what I really mean is that to achieve perfection so that all are perfectly educated the entire society must be involved.

It starts properly with a love for the life of the mind.

We can figure it all out.  We can do the right thing.  We want to make Heaven on Earth.

It is our Destiny together to at least imagine it, and imagine it in a reality of numbered things.  – Love, Russell

War and corruption keep the common man poor.

My mind needs protection from lies and mis-stories?

How come people get to print money anyway?  It is a great work of conceptual art.  Paper money is really interesting.

My solution to what Transcendia might print money from is Whole Life Insurance Policies for everybody from birth.

The problem seems to be that standard practice is to undervalue lives.  You may well be resented if you live too long.

At anyrate even without perfect numbers my policy is to create an insurance entity for Transcendians that the paper money is printed on.  My people will be worth at least as much as gold.

Yah know paper money does work well for travelers.  Surely enough we are seeing Gold as a de facto currency, medstore but you aint going to be sending gold over the wires yah know.

Legal tender is cash used for illegal work and products, and legal work and products, and you buy chips at the gambling casino with whatever money type you got.

We can work this art project out together.

Where we start from is true accounting of what everything really costs. 

I have been wanting a big story other than constant news about economic collapse and dangers ahead.  I am semi satisfied with Osama Bin Laden's getting shot news as a big story illustrating touchstone emotions.  Still you have to admit this is not a completely positive sort of story.

Plus by now we've all seen pictures of murdered, store executed, ed shot in war fairly, medicine or whatever.  Not just posting the picture of this guy dead will seem like they want to drag the story out, more than be sensitive to Islamist who follow Bin Laden.  What reasons by now I ought to have to be sensitive to that sect of Islam is beyond me.

Years ago a Manager I worked under said, "I don't longer get too bothered by the tears of women and children."  Far as Islamic fundamentalists the "Sensitivity" is really simply fear, since they tend to flip out and stab even lonely movie makers in normally peaceful streets of Amsterdam.  Hell even the tolerant Dutch have about had it with this sort of thing.

Bin Laden's guys sure crossed the line far as I'm concerned, for if you kill travelers on Transcendian airports I'd do all I could I could to eliminate whatever threat you and yours were.   I myself really love civilization, and coming from sailors and priests I have a spiritual connection to travel, and all what it is about and for.

I have even traveled in airplanes recently when all the investigation was to ask my name after I was comfortably seated.  Next time I go to the airlines I think I'll just wear my bathrobe and some slippers.  My wife actually helps me get dressed these days so I'm not up for this dressing and undressing stuff.  It hurts me.

Maritime law is fascinating to me.  It's my suspicion it is the basis for International Law.  The real trend is a World Federal Government.

As the Slaves in the US were freed into Wage Slavery like everybody else, out the Civil War, this World War Spy era will lead to Human Rights for Women.

I am for arming women.

And so it is, I am done for today, writing.

P.S. Time to get a Tin Foil Hat.  Or Next Big Story:  Aliens are on the way.  They are bringing either War Or Peace.  A great Tin Foil Hat is really what you want now, either way.

Dead Martyr, adiposity | or Live Threat?  What you want?

You would think that the US does have some powerful non lethal weapons.  Of course non lethal and lethal combinations in the toolbox must be applied in a total combat situation.

Mr. Obama, allergist President Obama is apparently, grudgingly given credit for not too much micro managing of the warriors.  I was fortunate enough to be instructed psychologically by a "retired" SEAL.  I think he was even a Major.  My Farr experience on scholarship ought to allow me to recommend them if they are of the caliber program they were.

Harvard is supposedly a pretty good school.

I don't think it is as good as it ought to be for Military History.

Still far as I can tell Obama gets respect because the operation succeeded, whereas Carter's operation failed.

I do think Ms. Clinton needs to speak up for the UN Declaration of Human Rights in any negotiations with the Taliban.  I can justify killing over women's rights as they have achieved in Western Nations.  I have become old and broken up, and can't even run anymore.  There may be little improvements from diet or drugs, or different foods, but I'm never going to be as strong as I used to be.  I'm no stronger than a child or woman anymore.

Still I've not gotten around to carrying a pistol, or even pepperspray.

It was Flight 93, the one that was supposed to hit the White House that somehow exemplifies winners over losers here.  We are in a present of no past like Faulkner said.  We want a past, but it doesn't exist.

Dumping the body at sea with the quick bury to Islamic custom spin, along with stated desire to obscure any location for a shrine is smart.  I wonder how much influence Mr. Obama had over this?  For my interests it makes sense partly since it was baldly stated as a motive for the action.

Now Obama and the Democrats can turn around and reinstate the Clinton era Taxes, and reform Corporate loophole inequities among the corporations.

As a lover of the US Post Office I want that Bureaucracy to be fixed up.  As an admirer of Ben Franklin I just can't let go of Libraries and the US Postal Service.

I'd give the US Postal Service some work protecting rightly emails if I could.

Anyway I have much work to do to become focused and real tied up.  – Give me some questions to answer.  There is a lot going on. 

Since I live in Carrboro, cough I have a strong interest in its economic development.  As an artist I have a strong interest in the health of the art business here.  I am aware that it is standard operating practice for many cities to tout the arts, and the artists as if they were zoo animals, and then price them out of the place after people came looking for them.

My mother travels and buys art on her trips.  I price my work at what she would pay.  One of her favorite paintings she paid 30 bucks for.  My last big sale was for 100 and 35.  Overall I feel like a zoo animal.  Greensboro shows off artists and art in a zoo atmosphere people seem to love.

In my travels and work life there was a time when I lived and worked in Manhattan where I did somehow make money enough to pay the rent either technically assisting the arts, or acting.  At this time I am inclined to tell artists to move away from here if they want to make a living at what they feel is their destiny.  Locally I am impressed with Jesse Kalisher's business operations as a photographic artist.  Phil Blank is another good one who I am proud to own two paintings by.

Still what would really across be board help, would be more of a Film and TV business.  Figure 8 is around and doing well, but more could be had.  More could be done.  To advance that business I have long suggested a Frisbee Golf, Golf Invitational Tournament, that was a TV event.  It would be a legitimate expense for tourism tax dollars paid to hotels and motels to spend on such a thing.  People like to visit places that have been in the movies and on TV.

Certainly making movies and tv is low impact environmentally and artist intensive which would fit with the economic development desires of the local "Greens".

Music is a big IGX area export, though hampered by paradigms arisen making recording careers lower profit than in the past.  Stu Cole of Squirrel Nut Zippers has to go to LA to work for right money, for instance.

We are all pretty much Freelancers, and Temp Labor is the real deal.  The closing of Tar Heel Temps at the time of the onset of the recession was emblematic of how academics don't get it.  I am reminded of how when business is down you are supposed to spend on advertising and research and development if you want to survive and grow.

So I have wonderment at what might ensue now that James Harris is gone, and Annette Stone is installed in his place.

I wonder if she understands that banks and investors are more important than committees?  I wonder if she will see that in this world our own little local community airport could be the key to a high tech low tech too, crew economic strength as around us there is collapse.

I wish I had a good rocket together now.  Last April Fools there were a series of failures.  I gave the rocket to the rocket staff and they left town.

Last couple of April Fools have not been very good.  I so want this one to be terrific.  I didn't give it on the day because there was no film crew lined up and I can't do this stuff over and over correctly for only the live audience because I feel the hand of death on my shoulder.

I don't live right, ambulance and at best have only about 20 years left.

Cheer up!  I think I will leave some integrity around.

I'm simple.  I'm essentially a Boy Scout.  Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent.

Of course I am again a Boy Scout gone wrong.  I inhaled.

If I could today get some hashish, I'd smoke it.

There are high paid executives listening to the sound track of Last of the Mohicans, and breathing till their Medulla Oblongata is bathed in oxygen around lunchtime every day.  Most people don't have time for this sort of mental exercise and would prefer to smoke some hashish.  Glad I've breathed as much as I have.

Anyway we all know that this world we share is being beat to shit by us.  I heard that humans breed like rabbits and that rabbits function on a J curve.  Rabbits will breed and populate a neighborhood till they exhaust the food for that neighborhood, and then die off.

Rabbits don't build monuments or sculptures, but there is a reason madly that Easter is represented by Easter Eggs, and the Easter Bunny, that is sort of funny…

Oh anyway, everybody needs to be armed, and everybody needs a complete and superior education so that they help us all live together as a Big Time Species.

It turns out that our main struggle together is with a hostile environment and Mars is not a rescue destination for us.  We can make creatures with brains like ours that might have fun naked on Mars, but that would be playing God, wouldn't it? 

Food is the number one ingredient of peace.  Civilization is about 3 meals thick.  Food delivery by aircraft is typically an expensive way to do it.  It is done in battle, generic and emergency, viagra sale and also to extreme environments.  I put food on old freighter planes destined for Caribbean islands.  We hear often that there is enough food for the world population, arthritis but that distribution is the problem.  Since aircraft can get to most anywhere, they would represent a key to this distribution failure.

The favorite fuels for aircraft engines have temperature ranges and BTU supply that enable fast and far, and high.  There is all sorts of stuff we can do to get around on the ground, but up in the air there are fewer choices.  Speed and lifting potential are very important.  Low in weather is a recipe for disaster.  Still as in so many cases the perfect is the enemy of the good.  Most of the time 12 thousand feet is good enough.  Most of the time 200 miles an hour is good enough.

Planes that can carry 10 tons and burn bio fuels, or propane, or whatever the scientists can get out of algae are desirable far as Transcendia is concerned.

I am aware that the Centrifugal Fuel Controller applied to the Ivchenko A!-TL 25/55 offers some fuel security for world wide freighter operations.  I am aware this technology has not been applied to freighter aircraft.

It is significant that 25 airline companies have gone out of business directly due to fuel costs.  I suspect that there will come a time in the future when it will be calculated how many aircraft will be allowed for the fuel available.  It would be a hoot for me locally here in failing IGX to limit Med Air Flight operations to local fuel supplies.  Their new French TBM is powered by one of the greatest engines of all time, the Pratt and Whitney PT6.  I'll bet we could get it to run on bio fuels made from the genetically engineered NC State University yams, that are inedible.

Far as NC and Southern land problems with Kudzu, would be nice to be able to turn that into turbine fuel.

Anyway Food Distribution is said to be the big problem for mankind, and Aircraft can get food to places other transport can't.  Blimps don't carry much, and are too slow.

Wing in Ground Effect Craft offer further efficiencies for heavy stuffs.   In this life there is Salvation through Science.

True poverty is when one cannot give anything away to others.  In Tunisia Mr. Sidi Bouazizi set fire to himself because cops stole his food.  Mr. Bouaizizi sold food from a street cart.  Mr. Bouaizizi was known to give away food to the most poor of his customers.

I suggest NATO bomb Libya with Food and Candy and Flowers all over the place at least for one day, as an experiment.
