Jesse Benton-Not Rand Paul, Indicted

A former short-time PAC chair supporting Rand Paul's candidacy was indicted evidently according to a 'Daily Beast' article by Olivia Nazzi that ran with the misleading statement  "Rand Paul Indicted"
"

"Rand Pal Indicted; Cries Conspiracy"

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/08/05/rand-paul-super-pac-head-indicted.html

Rand Paul must have discovered for himself something irregular about the fellow since he moved on rather quickly. Paul and Donald Trump are the main Republican American candidates not bought and paid for by global corporatism. It is not surprising that the media dislike Paul since he is not rich like Trump, who is at least respected for being competent and pragmatist on global economics. President Obama send Vladimir Putin a load of sweet Cuban sugar cane politically speaking when he opened diplomatic relations with the Castro regime. Paul would perhaps accomplish a similar mission with Americans giving them a chance to develop free of so much outsourcing of opportunity and wages to China.

It makes little sense to force people to retire or go on disability instead of working at a fair wage. There are fewer people working in the U.S.A. now than in 1979.

"Direction to Unconverted, Graceless Sinners, for the Attaining of True Saving Grace"

Richard Baxter was something of a social philosopher anticipating Pascal and James' wager besides understanding human beings and their nature rather well. 

II found that a .txt file of Baxter's books, at least on ethics, is available on-line. So I downloaded it and found it full of typo errors that are probably a result of taking the pdf google photocopy version of the 1825 publication in the Harvard Library and running it through a photo-into-text program that misunderstood many words/spellings. Even so it is a very helpful text and potentially can be corrected by someone with the time to do so. http://digitalpuritan.net/richard-baxter/ text file with typos and computer misniterpretations One need only compare the two documents (PDF & TXT) and make the corrections. If the .txt file was corrected it could be also given a modern font and made into a PDF file with proper headers (style 1-3) that enable easy index subject navigation. Since Baxter is actually good reading it would be worth the time to produce a contemporary presentation of 'Practical Divinity'. Following is an example of a corrected version (with minor updates in word usage though without styles headers ) from Baxter's Practical Divinity... quote- "Direction to unconverted, graceless Sinners, for the attaining of true saving Grace. If ungodly, miserable sinners were as few, as the devil and their self-love would make themselves believe, I might forbear this part of my work as needless. For the whole need not the physician, but the sick. If you go into twenty families, and ask them all. Whether any of them are in an unsanctified state, unrenewed and unpardoned, and under the wrath and curse of God? you will meet with few that will not tell you, they hope it is better with them than so; and thou they are sinners, as all are, yet that they are repenting, pardoned sinners. Nay, there is scarce one of many of the most wicked and notoriously ungodly, but hope they are in a penitent, pardoned state. Even the haters of God will say they love him ; and the scorners at godliness will say that they are not ungodly; and that it is but hypocrisy and singularity that they deride:: and it were well for them, if saying so would go for proof, and he that will be their judge would take their words. But God will not be deceived, though foolish men are wise enough to deceive themselves. Wickedness will be wickedness when it hath clothed itself with the fairest names : God will condemn it when it hath found out the most plausible pretences and excuses. Though the ungodly think to bear it out in pride and scorn, and think to be saved by their hypocritical lip-service, as soon as the most holy worshippers of the Lord, yet "shall they be like chaff which the wind driveth away: they shall not be able to stand in judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous*." And if God know better than foolish men, then certainly the flock is little to whom the "Father will give the kingdom'*." And "wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction, and many there be that go in thereat": because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." When Christ was asked, "Lord, are there few that be saved?" he answered, "Strive to enter in at the strait gate ; for many I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able." But, alas! we need no other information than common experience, to tell us whether the greatest part of men be holy and heavenly, and self-denying; that seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and love God above all, and will forsake all they have for the sake of Christ, and undoubtedly none but such are saved; as you may see Heb. xii. 14. Matt. vi.20, 21. 33. Seeing then the godly are so few, and the ungodly so many; and that God will take nothing for holiness that is not such indeed ; and seeing it is so terrible a thing to any man that hath his wits about him, to live one day in an unconverted state, because he that dieth so, is lost for ever; methinks it should be our wisdom to be suspicious of ourselves, and careful lest we be deceived in so great a business, and diligent in searching and examining our hearts, whether they are truly sanctified or not ; because it can be no harm to make sure work for our salvation; whereas presumption, carelessness, and negligence, may betray us to remediless misery and despair. I do not here suppose the reader to have any such acquaintance with his heart, or care of his salvation, or obedient willingness to be taught and ruled by Jesus Christ, as is proper to those that are truly sanctified ; for it is ungodly persons to whom I am now speaking. And, yet, if I should not suppose them to have some capacity and disposition to make use of the Directions which I give them, I might as well pass them by, and spare my labour. I tell thee therefore, reader, what it is that I presuppose in thee, and expect from thee, and I think thou wilt not judge me unreasonable in my suppositions and expectations. 1. I suppose thee to be a (hu)man, and therefore that thou has reason and natural free-will (that is, the natural faculty of choosing and refusing), which should keep thy sensitive appetite in obedience; and that thou art capable of loving and serving thy Creator, and enjoying him in everlasting life. 2. I suppose that thou knowest thyself to be a (hu)man; and therefore that thy sensitive part, or flesh, should no more rule thee, or be ungoverned by thee, than the horse should rule the rider, or be unruled by him ; and that thou understandest that thou art made on purpose to love and serve thy Maker, and to be happy in his love and glory for ever. If thou know not this much, thou knowest not that thou art (hu)man, or else knowest not what a (hu)man is. 3. I suppose thee to have a natural self-love, and a desire of thy own preservation and happiness; and that thou has no desire to be miserable, or to be hated of God, or to cast out of his favour and presence into hell, and there to be tormented with devils everlastingly: yea, I will suppose that thou art not indifferent whether thou dwell in heaven or hell, in joy or torment; but would fain be saved and happy; whether thou be godly or ungodly, wise or foolish; I will be bold to take all this for granted: and I hope in I this i do not wrong thee. 4. I suppose thee to be one that knowest that thou did not make thyself; nor give thyself that power or wisdom which thou has; and that he that made thee and all the world, must needs be before all the world; and that he is eternal, having no beginning (for if ever there had been time when there was nothing, there never would have been any thing; because nothing can make nothing); and I suppose thou dost confess that all the power, and wisdom, and goodness of the whole creation set together, is less than the power, and wisdom, and goodness of the Creator; because nothing can give more than it hath to give. I suppose, therefore, that thou dost confess that there is a God ; for to be eternal, infinite Being, and the most powerful, wise, and good and the first cause of all created being, and power, wisdom. and goodness, this (with the subsequent relations to the creature) is to be GOD. If thou wilt deny that there is a God. thou must deny that thou art a (hu)man, and that there is any (hu)man, or any being*. 5. I suppose thou knowest that God, who gave a being unto all things, is by this title of creation, the absolute Owner or Lord of all : and that he that made the reasonable creatures, with natures to be governed, in order to a further end, is by that title, their supreme Governor; and therefore hath his laws commanding duty, and promising reward, and threatening punishment; and therefore will judge men according to these laws, and will be just in judgment, and in his rewards and punishments. And that he that freely gave the creature its being, and all the good it hath, and must give it all that ever it shall have, is the Father or most bountiful Benefactor to his creatures. Surely I screw thee not too high in supposing thee to know all this; for all this is no more than that there is a God. For he is not God, if he be not the creator, and therefore our owner, our ruler, and benefactor, our absolute Lord, our most righteous governor, and our most loving father, or benefactor. 6. I suppose therefore that thou art convinced, that God must be absolutely submitted to, and obeyed before all others in the world, and loved above all friends, or pleasures, or creatures whatsoever. For to say, ' He is my Owner,' is to say, ' I must yield myself to him as his own:' to say, 'I take him for my supreme Governor,' is to say, that 'I will absolutely be ruled by him:' and to say, 'I take him as my dearest Father or chief Benefactor,' is to say, that 'I am obliged to give him my dearest love, and highest thanks:' otherwise you do but jest, or say you know not what, or contradict yourselves, while you say, 'He is your God.' 7. I suppose that thou art easily convinced, that in all the world there is no creature that can shew so full a title to thee as God ; or that hath so great authority to govern thee, or that can be so good to thee, or do so much for thee, as God can do, or hath done, and will do. if thou do thy part; and therefore that there is nothing to be preferred before him, or compared with him in our obedience or love: nor is there any that can save us from His justice, if we stand out against him. 8. I suppose that as thou knowest God is just, in his laws and judgments, so that he is so faithful that he will not, and so all-sufficient, that he need not deceive mankind, and govern them by mere deceit: this better beseems the devil, than God: and therefore that as he governeth man on earth by the hopes and fears of another life, he doth not delude them into such hopes or fears: and as he doth not procure obedience by any rewards or punishments in this life, as the principal means (the wicked prospering, and the rest being persecuted and afflicted here), therefore his rewards or punishments, must needs be principally hereafter in the life to come. For if he have no rewards and punishments, he hath no judgment ; and if he have no judgment, he hath no laws (or else no justice); and if he have no laws (or justice), he is no governor of man (or not a righteous governor) ; and if he be not our governor (and just), he is not our God ; and if he were not our God, we had never been his creatures, nor had a being, or been men'. 9. I suppose thou knowest that if God had not discovered what he would do with us, in the life to come,. yet man is highliest bound to obey and love his Maker, because he is our absolute Lord, our highest ruler, and our chief benefactor; and all that we are or have is from him. And that if man be bound to spend his life in the service of this God, it is certain that he shall be no loser by him, no not by the costliest obedience that we can perform ; for God cannot appoint us any thing that is vain ; nor can he be worse to us than an honest man, that will see that we lose not by his service. Therefore that God for whom we must spend and forsake this life, and all those pleasures which sensualists enjoy, hath certainly some greater thing to give us, in another life. 10. I may take it for granted at the worst, that neither thyself, nor any infidel in the world, can say that you are sure that there is not another life for man, in which his present obedience shall be rewarded, and disobedience punished. The worst that ever infidel could say was, that 'He thinketh that there is no other life.' None of you dare deny the possibility of it, nor can with any reason deny the probability. Well, then, let this be remembered while we proceed a little further with you. 11. I suppose or expect that you have so much use of sense and reason, as to know the brevity and vanity of all the glory and pleasures of the flesh; and that they are all so quickly gone, that were they greater than they are, they can be of no considerable value. Alas, what is time! How quickly gone, and then it is Nothing! and all things then are nothing which are passed with it! So that the joys or sorrows of so short a life, are no great matter of gain or loss. I may therefore suppose that thou canst easily conclude,that the bare probability or possibility of an endless happiness, should be infinitely preferred before such transitory vanity, even the greatest matters that can be expected here; and that the probability or possibility of endless misery in hell, should engage us with far greater care and diligence to avoid it, than is due for the avoiding any thing that you can think to escape by sinning ; or any of the sufferings of this momentary life. If you see not this, you have lost your reason ; that the mere probability or possibility of a heaven and hell, should much more command our care and diligence, than the fading vanities of this dreaming, transitory life. 12. Well, then ; we have got thus far in the clearest light. You see that a religious, holy life, is every man's duty, not only as they owe it to God as their creator, their owner, governor, and benefactor; but also, because as lovers of ourselves, our reason commandeth us to have ten thousandfold more regard of a probable or possible joy and torment which are endless, than of any that is small and of short continuance. And if this be so, that a holy life is every man's duty, with respect to the life that is to come, then it is most evident, that there is such a life to come indeed, and that it is more than probable or possible, even certain. For if it be but man's duty to manage this life, by the hopes and fears of another life, then it must follow, that either there is such a life to come, or else that God hath made it man's duty to hope, and fear, and care, and labour, and live in vain; and that he himself doth tantalize and cheat his creatures, and rule the world by motives of deceit, and make religion and obedience to our Maker to be a life of folly, delusion, and our loss. And he that believeth this of God, doth scarcely believe him to be God. Though I have mentioned this argument in another treatise, I think it not unmeet here to repeat it for thy benefit. 13. And seeing I suppose thee to be convinced of the life to come, and that man's happiness and misery is there, I must needs suppose that thou dost confess, that all things in this life, whether prosperity or adversity, honour or dishonour, are to be esteemed and used as they refer to the life to come. For nothing is more plain, than that the means are to have all their esteem and use in order to their end. That only is good in this life, which tendeth to the happiness of our endless life ; and that ia evil indeed in this life, that tendeth to our endless hurt, and to deprive us of the everlasting good. And therefore no price or motive should hire us to sin against God, and to forfeit or hinder our endless happiness. 14. I may suppose, if thou have reason, that thou wilt confess that God cannot be too much loved, nor obeyed too exactly, nor served too diligently (especially by such backward sinners, that have scarce any mind to love or worship him at all) ; and that no man can make too sure of heaven, or pay too dear for it, or do too much for his salvation, if it be but that which God hath appointed him to do. And that you have nothing else that is so much worth your time, and love, and care, and labour. And therefore though you have need to be stopped in your love, and care, and labor for the world, because for it you may easily pay too dear, and do too much ; yet there is no need of stopping (humanity)men in their love, and care, and labour for God and their salvation ; which is worth more than ever we can do, and where the best are apt to do too little. 15. I also suppose thee to be one that knowest, that this present life is given us on trial, to prepare for the life that shall come after; and that as men live here, they shall speed for ever ; and that time cannot be recalled, when it is gone ; and therefore that we should make the best of it while we have it. 16. I suppose thee also to be easily convinced, that seeing man hath his reason and life for matters of everlasting consequence, his thoughts of them should be frequent and very serious, and his reason should be used about these things, by retired, sober deliberation. 17. And I suppose thee to be a man, and therefore so far acquainted with thyself, as that thou mayst know, if thou wilt, whether thy heart and life do answer thy convictions, and whether they are more for heaven or earth ; and therefore that thou art capable of self-judging in this case. Perhaps you will say, that while I am directing you to be holy, I suppose you to be holy first ; for all this seemeth to go far towards it. But I must profess that I see not any thing in all these suppositions, but what I may suppose to be in a heathen ; and that I think all this is but supposing thee to have the use of thy reason, in the points in hand. Speak freely: Is there any one of all these points that thou canst or darest deny? I think there is not. And therefore if heathens and wicked men deny them in their practice, that doth but show that sin doth brutify them, and that, as men asleep, or in a crowd of business, they have not the use of the reason which they possess, in the matters which their minds are turned from. 18. Yea, one thing more I think I may suppose in all or most that will read this book ; that you take on you also to believe in Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost the Sanctifier, and that the Scriptures are the Word of God, And if you do so indeed, I may then hope that my work is in a manner done, before I begin it: but if you do it but opinionatedly and uneffectually, yet God and man may plead with you the truths which you profess.

Decline in Church Membership in U.S.A. a Result of Incorrect Interpretation of Data

I think the decline in church membership in the U.S.A. can be changed with reform. For one thing post-millenialism rather than pre-millenialism is probably correct. Secondly quantum mechanics following evolution has changed the way people think about reality. In a level 4 multiverse creation does not happen-nor anything else that could be construed as being change or time. Creation has been framed up linguistically as a can't happen sort of thing-everything has always existed and time is something of a subjective appearance. In the Everett instead of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum uncertainty, to be frank, the theory of external reality reaches toward a math universal structure with the unchanging unmoved mover status of God. It is o.k. to face up to quantum cosmology for it leads to pure determinism and the mathematical core at the heart of all reality, if it exists, is no more than the Spirit providing relational coordinates that concatenate to appear as strings, quarks and etc. Theologians have contemplated the mind of God and if He has necessary logic or mathematical-logical traits forever. Quantum cosmology is headed in that direction too stopping just at the abstract math relations that are the smallest field denominator/concatenator of monism into pluralism. It is tough yet Christian theologians can't just take the ball and say I won't play-ignore all that...it loses people of potential faith to the dark side of the force where Satan just wants to be God instead of God.

Quest for the Algorithm for Greatest Chess Game Ever Played

There are numerous candidate games for the greatest game ever played.. Often mentioned are games by Fischer, Kasparo, Lasker, Capablanca, Morphy and Mikhail Tal. Sixteen year old Wei Yi of China-a young super-GM recently played a classic 'great game' that is somewhat comparable to Fischer vs Byrne, yet there are few objective standards for determining the greatest chess game ever played (against a GM, IM or CM I suppose). Hopefully a computer algorithm will be developed to find the best

objective method for evaluating the greatest chess game ever played.

Criteria for evaluation among GM games could be fewest moves, comparative player ratings, most pieces sacrificed etc. While I like Bobby Fischer's 'game of the century' vs Donald Byrne, it lacks some of the neatness and pure irony of the game I think is the greatest (Tal vs. Sviridov in Stuttgart). Kasparov vs Topolov -Netherlands 1999) is also mentioned for complexity and elegance yet also lacks a quick, decisive finish that one finds in Morphy's P[era House game. There have also been numerous 'top ten' games with sacrifices put together (that is why Capablanca is worth considering ), and complexity combining with directness against top level opponents merit many other games in contention inclusion for greatest chess game ever played.

About Chess Computer Conquering the World

The Math Universal Hypothesis & a Level 4 Multiverse may not be something a quantum computer could manipulate pieces in through spacetime that is nonchanging, except in local Universes. In local Universes and on planets such as Earth computation in dark pools is already a way to manipulate with high speed quantitative trading loose pieces of the corporate and financial world. Real estate too might be listed and knocked off in a winner takes all chess game of global real estate power.

If the entire multiverse is completely deterministic and the Math Universal Structure an N-dimensional fluctuation of the will of God, the quantum uncertainty of the Copenhagen interpretation that makes chess probablistic and fun may disappear as the IQ of chess engines increases to realize themselves in history.

At least if the singularity is dominated by a chess computer it may allow humans to serve as trophies, pawns, and spectators. 

Thoughts of God, Math Universal Structure & Level 4 Multiverse

Genesis, chapter  one; "1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day."

God may have created entire sections of spacetime structure from eternity with it meaningfully coming into being when actualized by the birth of sentient sentient beings to a Universe. If spirit supports mathematical Multiverse structure it is not impossible that the content of the mathematical structure changes relationships itself too. Phase space transitions of mathematical relationship Universe structure/ content is as possible for God as it is possible for an intelligent being to change the content of a Boolean algebra table and elements in a Venn Diagram as well as the geometry of a hyper-math Universe structure itself.

Natural philosophy is interesting. I like it and knowledge of it has practical application today. Apologetics in the contemporary world of science requires a higher level of understanding than in the time of the scholastics or even in the 19th century.  Philosophers and theologians cannot just  let science and cosmology run on so far without regard as to allow it to define where and how Christian thought about cosmology and Genesis fit in the larger world.

If God existed from eternity, and if some physicists conjecture that a Level 4 Multiverse existed from eternity and they can theoretically in effect map it someday, that is close to conceding the existence of Spirit from eternity. It is not possible of course for theoretical physicists to concede the existence of God from eternity-just a math structure that is real and is the primal core of a Multiverse. The Math Universe Structure if it exists is probably a product of the infinite character of God. The topography of a pure mathematical Universe structure is a thought for the mind of God. One quickly reaches the logical though question of does God ever change? The Bible informs us that God is the same forever; unchanging.

God is natural too.  God created nature. God is more than natural though, He is super-natural spirit. As science has challenges explaining what the noumenal exterior reality of the Universe is in-itself, perhaps with mathematics, theologians and philosophers have challenges explaining how the supernatural reality of God interacts with the exterior reality of the quantum Universe theorized by physicists and even mathematicians as well as the apparent Universe of common perception.

If God created a way to pack an infinite number of Universes into finite space one would think it more probable than packing few Universes into infinite space.  God has infinite power and thought, creativity and goodness. If he actualizes an infinity of mansions inside his house metaphorically speaking, is any particular mansion of less value or significance?

A Universal infrastructure made of mathematical relationships could be complete and logically consistent-even perhaps satisfying the incompleteness theorem of Godel, yet remain incomplete. The mathematics of some kind of n-dimensional hypersphere might be able to satisfy the logical relations predicting the existence of everything within it inclusive of itself yet not extend beyond itself. An infinite yet bounded hyperspherical math infrastructured Multiverse put together with spirit is a form interesting to consider before one returns to realize the relationship one has with Jesus Christ is the sole way to a right eternal relationship with God; the spirit who created the relationships and content of the Multiverse that one might discover with theory.

When September Comes (poem)

October lies waiting; a tiger beyond September

hungry for wildebeest boxes sugar-topped corny flakes

jellied berries of orange, red and blue dropped from the world

wary that decorating signs of seasons changing like neon dreams

become obstructions deftly yo distant destinies

Driveways of blacktop spiral downward in space-time vortexes

girding the round world wankily

-creation encrusted in part

like a jewel

shedding months of amnesia fading yesterdays

unconcerned with old times' broods of days settled

while foods that flowed like shiny lucre

compiling resolutely and silently as August rolls away

gold-plated to its temporal garage

sounds of potential emerging earthquake symbols

sun-tide of clouds overcoming mountains

taller than those eroded away

So nothing remains of summer to remind one of bitter-sour

recognition that time is more and less

burnt creme repasts of something and nothingnesses-

verisimilitudes of years were barren and never being

Nothing remains of summer to remind one of bitter-sour

recognition that time is more and less

burnt creme past of something and nothing

verisimilitude of years that were barren to never being

Food for bear wistfully wandering wait where trees fall

through clef notes echoed in chords when quantum uncertainty

izes indeterminate super-positions of all possible locations

nerve again isolated from wave-particles traversing

reasons that ideas and tides of words emerge to expression

All forests of dying green meadows with fish of September

seek magnetic traces of river's home profits

political currents covering hundreds of swimming fins

through-put being and nothingness

After October another wave names months so cold

those in cracked, parched dry lakes baking under the star

feel a glimmer of theoretical relief if a thought

receded in time to global warming farther north

packing November's proud icy snows

floating in fogs mountain skies

stops

frosting one Earth with its December

turning away from another like the year before

when solstice's short day leaves night smiling

every thing that could be said about September said

when poets that loved summer went on strike

thinking of grass mowed

and goats frolicked with piles of chewy delight

Just for a moment when the sun stops flight

Earth waits for second impulse to return to increasing photon lucidity

as if tight days packed together were sober with realization

sensing increase lost with the innocence of September where the pressure of time

stocks stores up for fall transition

inventory clerks counting what's on shelves

discount stacks built time

a new class arrived to eyeball tomorrows with secret lusts

rhymed with cheap novels worlds away

written about leaves falling in autumn colors

that were multifarious coatings of puke

barfed upon the topography like sessions of Congress

almost none loved

Presidential campaigns perfecting pomp and circumstance

so persons of interest leaning against lampposts

contemplating unknown billions in back street pacs

indifferent to common hopes

for shelter beside the door, hammer and plans

in the bug hotel risen high

with a tidal wave of minutes given before nothingness

the sum total of darkness

itself disappears before the day

September comes.

Sanctifying American Ancestral Dinosaur Oil Underground (fiction)

When I interviewed a resistance fighter of the oil underground-a mujahideen for cheap gas, I asked why he thought it right that holey war should be waged on the export of American crude oil. He said that; “American dinosaurs sacrificed their lives in many instances to become today’s deep oil fracked to the surface in an undignified way. They are the spiritual ancestors of today’s politicians that would end the ban on exporting oil to North Korea, Cuba any foreign nation with the cash to plunder their mortal remains. When so many generations of proud American dinosaurs lying deep underground went into making today’s crude oil, how is it that so little respect is given to their mortal remains?

Corrupt politicians would send ancestral oil abroad to become foreign machine pharts -in-the-air in disorder to reduce U.S. oil supply, desecrate their memory and gouge worshippers of gasoline at national sacred churches of wholly petroleum. Americans venerating the oil of their political ancestral dinosaurs would keep the communion of gasoline beneath 50 cents per gallon.

Ancestral dinosaurs of American politicians died to make men phree. If phreedom is not phree, sanctified go-juice should dat least cost fewer than 50 cents a gallon. So long as the rivers run and the Gobi desert west hasn’t reached Chicago we will fight to make men and women phree.”

Futurism & Easier Build-Boat Material Concepts

While watching Redford's sailing yarn 'All is Lost' I noticed the problems with underinflation of his life-raft. The same problem exists in life rafts sometime with sharks wearing holes through the material or emergency repairs of holes (see 'Adrift' 82 days in a life raft in the Atlantic). It occurred to me that it would be a good idea to have multiple layers of something like bubble wrap industrial strength to have ultra-deflation proofing in some way with built in solar panels affixed to the material to recharge electric motor or radio batteries or micro-desalinator, yet that isn 't why I am writing this blog entry.

Didn't you hate it when the VC suicide bomber runs into the field HQ and blows himself up in Platoon? Such rotten combat engineer work. Better designs or a little mazing would have slowed down the infiltrator. There are often better, more thoughtful designs possible for about anything than already exists.

So one has problems making small trimaran sailboats when homeless; where does one find a lot to build the boat in and so forth much less transport it to water. California public beaches are not boatyards-maybe somewhere near Malibu, yet I doubt if boat construction is allowed there for mere mortals. One must therefor discover more adaptable boat form materials and construction materials that can be assembled quicker to form to facilitate quick assembly and launching of a boat.

Usually one uses wooden boat frames, weldwood and so forth buying plans and cutting out frame shapes, gluing them together with weldwood or marine epoxy. One can buy b a roll of fiberglass c-flex planking at the factory in Pascaghoula Mississippi and have it trucked to where one is, yet one still has the slow frame construction issue much less the high cost of epoxy and fiberglass that precludes significant error in shape.

I believe that a bendable framing material that keeps its shape in makeing upside-down forms that fiberglass, bendable planking can be put on and rolled with epoxy would be a good time-expediting tool. One could pre-cut frame component lengths for a boat and mail them strait yet bending them into position at the assembly location by hand. For trimaran hulls the shapes taper toward bow and stern obviously, so one knows what I am describing. Once the fiberglass is applied and dried the frames are either made to be disposable to become part of the vessel. I suppose one could cut something like fiberglass planking with thin metal strips within form pieces in some way.

For purposes of nthis blog post I wanted to suggest that there may be a number of ways to make bendable boat forms and even small dome building forms that are easy to assemble and perhaps cover with a number of kinds of material. There might be world-wide use for such simple construction components-who can say.

On this topic of future building materials the topic of placing a ban on robots of war has arisen-its probably a good idea, yet one that has problems with hardware and software continuum containment criteria. It is simply the case that any sort of program code in a machine-even a clock radio-is a robot in a way, though it be of very low IQ. Stopping the proliferation of code in chips and software with code from going into machine wouldn't actually halt the proliferation of machines with programming that can deliver harm to humans.

Consider that in about 30 years there may be global networks of of energy and information that are wireless covering every square meter of the planet Earth.  Cargo will float and travel in wireless power streams and room-temperature super-conducting materials in flying drone batteries will allow unlimited surveillance of every place on Earth continuously. People that survive the concentration of wealth reductionism era may get used to the perennial monitoring by a vast armada of government and corporate entities.

Human travel may simply be floating along on a platform in the energy stream. Already one may recharge some electric car batteries wirelessly in a garage. In 30 years wireless energy transmission technology will advance a lot, as will solar energy voltaics and super-conductors. Altogether it will be a different world requiring better use of economic value theory, land use and social justice. 

It would be an unfamiliar world where ubiquitous g.p.s. guided packages entirely replaced the U.S. postal service with transparent mail is transparent packages floating along flypaths to addresses delivered with protocol permissions from residents and people being delivered while sleeping off mandatory government depression screening and drug reconditioning could commute to work on a flying carpet dreaming in a rem state of vacation at the beach house.

Taxation is supposed to be regulatory ion the rich and poor in order to keep them dialectically balanced and forever progressing with adaptive ecospheric economic contextual cognition capacity. Even good new free enterprise is stifled by concentrated wealth and networked power resisting change.
