Photography

Photography. Pictures, images to look at and behold. A picture tells a thousand stories. And I have seen a lot of those photos to look at seemingly all over the place throughout my travels here on planet earth. And now with everyone, or at least a lot of people posting those photos on the internet, there seems to be a whole lot more of those photos to look at. And then there are those everlasting memories of the bride and the groom in marriage. And usually for those marriages and wedding ceremonies only usually has one of those DC Wedding Photographers for that wedding. Especially if one is located in DC. And if you happen to be looking for a DC Wedding Photographer, Roman Grinev Photography has them. Their DC Wedding Photography can make your wedding last a lifetime with their photos. And those wedding photos that they have on their website are really cool to look at of those wedding ceremonies and more. And now with the invention of all things internet, one does not even have to leave home to find that wedding photographer. Or at least one does not have to leave a computer to find that wedding photographer, as now finding that photographer for that wedding can be just a website visit away.

Another Day Another Blogpost


And on this day finds itself another one of those Sundays, (Okay, it's actually Wednesday according to that clock on this computer).... that has rolled around this week, that say of the sun, day of rest day. Or is that Saturday, the Sabbath? And yet I find myself blogging away on this blog for some reason or another. And this blog wants to confuse me sometimes in what to post on it in my attempt to maintain more than one blog in going back and forth between the two in trying to figure out what to post on either. And so this following post if from one of those news articles I sent to myself in an email that finds itself sitting in my email inbox. And for some reason this RFID tag reminds me of that globalism, passport, national I.D., 666 save no man that he may buy or sell mark of the beast. end of the world. GPS tracking device, technology thing. And what does this have to do with a No Police State?

An RFID Tag in Your Driver's License?


CNet News reports that New York state has begun offering enhanced driver's licenses embedded with radio frequency identification (RFID) chips, which can be read from a distance by a receiver device.

The new RFID driver's license, which will cost an additional $30 over the standard $50 licensing fee, will provide identification that can be used at the border in lieu of a U.S. passport, which these days is also RFID-equipped.
CNet says U.S. border officials will be able to scan the RFID-equipped license authorities to identify U.S. citizens entering the country from Canada, Mexico or the Caribbean. Intercontinental travelers will still need to produce a passport to enter the country.
In issuing the new licenses, New York becomes only the second state, following Washington, to offer RFID-equipped identification that can be used at U.S. border crossings. Such identification is part of the federal government’s Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative, which was mandated by Congress in 2004 after being recommended by the 9/11 Commission. The initiative is intended to control movement across the U.S. border by verifying the citizenship and identity of everyone entering the United States by land, sea or air from Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean.
RFID tags are viewed with concern by privacy advocates and civil libertarians, who fear that they could be used for government surveillance as well as identity verification. Some also warn that RFID-enhanced documents are vulnerable to RFID hackers, who can intercept the signals and clone the chips for their own illicit use.
In response to these worries, the state of New York is mailing each one with a protective storage sleeve that prevents transmission, commented DMV spokesman Ken Brown, in a recent article in Newsday. Brown added that the only personal information contained in the tag is a number that would be meaningless except to Homeland Security agents.
Manufacturers are also now marketing specially designed RFID-blocking wallets to protect users from identity theft.

The Furniture

Hey again bloggers, or whoever could be reading this blog. And for some reason on this day of that New York City snowstorm holiday season I find myself blogging about bedroom sets for some reason or another instead of those New Years Eve parties in the coming days that are to be found all around town. Bedroom sets. Furniture. And what is there that I can say about that word furniture that has not already been said in time except that if you find yourself as one of those human beings dwelling here on planet earth, you may sometimes find yourself in want or need or some sort of object to sit, lean or lie on. And some of those websites have beautiful photos of that dining room, living room and bedroom furniture to look at in all kinds of shapes, designs and styles. And now with the inventions of all things internet, one can buy that furniture online without ever having to leave home, or at least without ever having to leave a computer. As now finding that furniture can be just a website visit away.

1.1.11

And so this day finds itself another one of those Sundays that has rolled around again this week and year, that day of the sun, day of Christ. And it seems to be more of Christ on this week as it finds itself that holy week of Christmas and the holy days of seasons greetings. And then there's the New Year, the next following year after the one that is. Or something like that. And so with New Years Day that has found itself approaching with days again on planet earth seems to come the words party, party, party, drink, super duper expensive parties, celebrate, parties and more drink. And oh, the title of this blog post seems to be 1.1.11, as in 1/1/2011, or January 1st, 2011. And that one one eleven number sounds like some sort of mystical magical number that astrologists, numerologists and maybe end of the world fanaticalists could have some time with.

10 Reasons You Should Never Get a Job

Now this is one interesting post I came across on facebook in my facebookaholicness on one of those Sunday day of the sun, day of rest days. So interesting, that I thought to repost it. And though it could read like some novel about entrepreneurship, this is one of those website posts that seems as if it wants to speak for itself, maybe.

10 Reasons You Should Never Get a Job

Just for fun I recently asked Erin, “Now that the kids are in summer school, don’t you think it’s about time you went out and got yourself a job? I hate seeing you wallow in unemployment for so long.”

She smiled and said, “Wow. I have been unemployed a really long time. That’s weird… I like it!”

Neither of us have had jobs since the ’90s (my only job was in 1992), so we’ve been self-employed for quite a while. In our household it’s a running joke for one of us to say to the other, “Maybe you should get a job, derelict!”

It’s like the scene in The Three Stooges where Moe tells Curly to get a job, and Curly backs away, saying, “No, please… not that! Anything but that!”

It’s funny that when people reach a certain age, such as after graduating college, they assume it’s time to go out and get a job. But like many things the masses do, just because everyone does it doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. In fact, if you’re reasonably intelligent, getting a job is one of the worst things you can do to support yourself. There are far better ways to make a living than selling yourself into indentured servitude.

Here are some reasons you should do everything in your power to avoid getting a job:

1. Income for dummies.

Getting a job and trading your time for money may seem like a good idea. There’s only one problem with it. It’s stupid! It’s the stupidest way you can possibly generate income! This is truly income for dummies.

Why is getting a job so dumb? Because you only get paid when you’re working. Don’t you see a problem with that, or have you been so thoroughly brainwashed into thinking it’s reasonable and intelligent to only earn income when you’re working? Have you never considered that it might be better to be paid even when you’re not working? Who taught you that you could only earn income while working? Some other brainwashed employee perhaps?

Don’t you think your life would be much easier if you got paid while you were eating, sleeping, and playing with the kids too? Why not get paid 24/7? Get paid whether you work or not. Don’t your plants grow even when you aren’t tending to them? Why not your bank account?

Who cares how many hours you work? Only a handful of people on this entire planet care how much time you spend at the office. Most of us won’t even notice whether you work 6 hours a week or 60. But if you have something of value to provide that matters to us, a number of us will be happy to pull out our wallets and pay you for it. We don’t care about your time — we only care enough to pay for the value we receive. Do you really care how long it took me to write this article? Would you pay me twice as much if it took me 6 hours vs. only 3?

Non-dummies often start out on the traditional income for dummies path. So don’t feel bad if you’re just now realizing you’ve been suckered. Non-dummies eventually realize that trading time for money is indeed extremely dumb and that there must be a better way. And of course there is a better way. The key is to de-couple your value from your time.

Smart people build systems that generate income 24/7, especially passive income. This can include starting a business, building a web site, becoming an investor, or generating royalty income from creative work. The system delivers the ongoing value to people and generates income from it, and once it’s in motion, it runs continuously whether you tend to it or not. From that moment on, the bulk of your time can be invested in increasing your income (by refining your system or spawning new ones) instead of merely maintaining your income.

This web site is an example of such a system. At the time of this writing, it generates about $9000 a month in income for me (update: $40,000 a month as of 10/31/06), and it isn’t my only income stream either. I write each article just once (fixed time investment), and people can extract value from them year after year. The web server delivers the value, and other systems (most of which I didn’t even build and don’t even understand) collect income and deposit it automatically into my bank account. It’s not perfectly passive, but I love writing and would do it for free anyway. But of course it cost me a lot of money to launch this business, right? Um, yeah, $9 is an awful lot these days (to register the domain name). Everything after that was profit.

Sure it takes some upfront time and effort to design and implement your own income-generating systems. But you don’t have to reinvent the wheel — feel free to use existing systems like ad networks and affiliate programs. Once you get going, you won’t have to work so many hours to support yourself. Wouldn’t it be nice to be out having dinner with your spouse, knowing that while you’re eating, you’re earning money? If you want to keep working long hours because you enjoy it, go right ahead. If you want to sit around doing nothing, feel free. As long as your system continues delivering value to others, you’ll keep getting paid whether you’re working or not.

Your local bookstore is filled with books containing workable systems others have already designed, tested, and debugged. Nobody is born knowing how to start a business or generate investment income, but you can easily learn it. How long it takes you to figure it out is irrelevant because the time is going to pass anyway. You might as well emerge at some future point as the owner of income-generating systems as opposed to a lifelong wage slave. This isn’t all or nothing. If your system only generates a few hundred dollars a month, that’s a significant step in the right direction.

2. Limited experience.

You might think it’s important to get a job to gain experience. But that’s like saying you should play golf to get experience playing golf. You gain experience from living, regardless of whether you have a job or not. A job only gives you experience at that job, but you gain ”experience” doing just about anything, so that’s no real benefit at all. Sit around doing nothing for a couple years, and you can call yourself an experienced meditator, philosopher, or politician.

The problem with getting experience from a job is that you usually just repeat the same limited experience over and over. You learn a lot in the beginning and then stagnate. This forces you to miss other experiences that would be much more valuable. And if your limited skill set ever becomes obsolete, then your experience won’t be worth squat. In fact, ask yourself what the experience you’re gaining right now will be worth in 20-30 years. Will your job even exist then?

Consider this. Which experience would you rather gain? The knowledge of how to do a specific job really well — one that you can only monetize by trading your time for money – or the knowledge of how to enjoy financial abundance for the rest of your life without ever needing a job again? Now I don’t know about you, but I’d rather have the latter experience. That seems a lot more useful in the real world, wouldn’t you say?

3. Lifelong domestication.

Getting a job is like enrolling in a human domestication program. You learn how to be a good pet.

Look around you. Really look. What do you see? Are these the surroundings of a free human being? Or are you living in a cage for unconscious animals? Have you fallen in love with the color beige?

How’s your obedience training coming along? Does your master reward your good behavior? Do you get disciplined if you fail to obey your master’s commands?

Is there any spark of free will left inside you? Or has your conditioning made you a pet for life?

Humans are not meant to be raised in cages. You poor thing…

4. Too many mouths to feed.

Employee income is the most heavily taxed there is. In the USA you can expect that about half your salary will go to taxes. The tax system is designed to disguise how much you’re really giving up because some of those taxes are paid by your employer, and some are deducted from your paycheck. But you can bet that from your employer’s perspective, all of those taxes are considered part of your pay, as well as any other compensation you receive such as benefits. Even the rent for the office space you consume is considered, so you must generate that much more value to cover it. You might feel supported by your corporate environment, but keep in mind that you’re the one paying for it.

Another chunk of your income goes to owners and investors. That’s a lot of mouths to feed.

It isn’t hard to understand why employees pay the most in taxes relative to their income. After all, who has more control over the tax system? Business owners and investors or employees?

You only get paid a fraction of the real value you generate. Your real salary may be more than triple what you’re paid, but most of that money you’ll never see. It goes straight into other people’s pockets.

What a generous person you are!

5. Way too risky.

Many employees believe getting a job is the safest and most secure way to support themselves.

Morons.

Social conditioning is amazing. It’s so good it can even make people believe the exact opposite of the truth.

Does putting yourself in a position where someone else can turn off all your income just by saying two words (“You’re fired”) sound like a safe and secure situation to you? Does having only one income stream honestly sound more secure than having 10?

The idea that a job is the most secure way to generate income is just silly. You can’t have security if you don’t have control, and employees have the least control of anyone. If you’re an employee, then your real job title should be professional gambler.

6. Having an evil bovine master.

When you run into an idiot in the entrepreneurial world, you can turn around and head the other way. When you run into an idiot in the corporate world, you have to turn around and say, “Sorry, boss.”

Did you know that the word boss comes from the Dutch word baas, which historically means master? Another meaning of the word boss is “a cow or bovine.” And in many video games, the boss is the evil dude that you have to kill at the end of a level.

So if your boss is really your evil bovine master, then what does that make you? Nothing but a turd in the herd.

Who’s your daddy?

7. Begging for money.

When you want to increase your income, do you have to sit up and beg your master for more money? Does it feel good to be thrown some extra Scooby Snacks now and then?

Or are you free to decide how much you get paid without needing anyone’s permission but your own?

If you have a business and one customer says “no” to you, you simply say “next.”

8. An inbred social life.

Many people treat their jobs as their primary social outlet. They hang out with the same people working in the same field. Such incestuous relations are social dead ends. An exciting day includes deep conversations about the company’s switch from Sparkletts to Arrowhead, the delay of Microsoft’s latest operating system, and the unexpected delivery of more Bic pens. Consider what it would be like to go outside and talk to strangers. Ooooh… scary! Better stay inside where it’s safe.

If one of your co-slaves gets sold to another master, do you lose a friend? If you work in a male-dominated field, does that mean you never get to talk to women above the rank of receptionist? Why not decide for yourself whom to socialize with instead of letting your master decide for you? Believe it or not, there are locations on this planet where free people congregate. Just be wary of those jobless folk — they’re a crazy bunch!

9. Loss of freedom.

It takes a lot of effort to tame a human being into an employee. The first thing you have to do is break the human’s independent will. A good way to do this is to give them a weighty policy manual filled with nonsensical rules and regulations. This leads the new employee to become more obedient, fearing that s/he could be disciplined at any minute for something incomprehensible. Thus, the employee will likely conclude it’s safest to simply obey the master’s commands without question. Stir in some office politics for good measure, and we’ve got a freshly minted mind slave.

As part of their obedience training, employees must be taught how to dress, talk, move, and so on. We can’t very well have employees thinking for themselves, now can we? That would ruin everything.

God forbid you should put a plant on your desk when it’s against the company policy. Oh no, it’s the end of the world! Cindy has a plant on her desk! Summon the enforcers! Send Cindy back for another round of sterility training!

Free human beings think such rules and regulations are silly of course. The only policy they need is: “Be smart. Be nice. Do what you love. Have fun.”

10. Becoming a coward.

Have you noticed that employed people have an almost endless capacity to whine about problems at their companies? But they don’t really want solutions – they just want to vent and make excuses why it’s all someone else’s fault. It’s as if getting a job somehow drains all the free will out of people and turns them into spineless cowards. If you can’t call your boss a jerk now and then without fear of getting fired, you’re no longer free. You’ve become your master’s property.

When you work around cowards all day long, don’t you think it’s going to rub off on you? Of course it will. It’s only a matter of time before you sacrifice the noblest parts of your humanity on the altar of fear: first courage… then honesty… then honor and integrity… and finally your independent will. You sold your humanity for nothing but an illusion. And now your greatest fear is discovering the truth of what you’ve become.

I don’t care how badly you’ve been beaten down. It is never too late to regain your courage. Never!

Scrubs

Scrubs. Isn't that the name of some television show that has something to do with people wearing those hospital outfits that almost look like they could be pajamas or something, that usually come in those colors of blue and green. And usually when I hear the word scrubs it gives me images of nurse uniforms and people walking around in lab coats in some sort of hospital environment. Though in today's days and times, some of those scrubs are so cool to look at they seem as if they could be fashion statements. And if you happen to be looking for those scrub uniforms you can find them online without ever having to leave home, or at least without ever having to leave a computer. And now with the invention of that thing called the internet, finding those scrubs, hats, coats, accessories and more in many different shapes, designs, colors and styles has never been easier.

A Black Friday Video

Now I've heard of those Black Friday and Cyber Monday excuses for shop til you drop holidays with titles for more shopping days seemingly everending in consumerism and beyond. Though this YouTube video below that I came across in my facebookaholicness seems as if it wants to speak for itself.

CNN

Wolf Blitzer Presents The World

Guest post of the week by Deangelo Spencer

The most famous star of CNN is Wolf Blitzer. His show can be caught on Directtv everyday at 4:00 eastern daylight time. Wolf Blitzer is one of my favorite television personalities because he is always on and always ready to tell us what is happening without critiquing the news stories that his journalists cover and actually entertain us with.

If the news can be entertaining, Wolf Blitzer covers it. He has a dead pan expression that added to his white closely cropped beard make him a personality of his own. His news coverage is all acting complete with moving from center stage to stage left and staring straight into the camera. Interacting with invited reporters, Wolf Blitzer acts the part of the inquisitor and always thanks his guest reporters.

Wolf Blitzer's style, mannerisms, and voice have made a popular cable news personality and CNN would probably not know what to do without him. He is not your typical news anchor since he is a cable news personality. His voice and mannerisms give way to his attitudes on life in general

What Is Art


And on this day finds itself another one of those Sundays that has rolled around. That day of the sun. The day of God. The day of rest. The sabbath. Or is that Saturday. And yet I find myself blogging away on this blog for some reason. And it seems as if I find myself blaghing about events and anything else that comes to mind on this blog every so often. And then there is sometimes that blah bloggers block that I find myself encountering every so often on this blog as well when it comes to what to blog about on this blog for the sake of maintaining content on this blog whenever possible. And sometimes in that quest to attempt to blog myself all the way to the bank in that attempt to get rich internet quick, that website page ranking thing seems as if it wants to send me in search of a tenth full time job. And so this post on this day happens to be about the phrase what is art. As in who is to say what that word art means. Does Wikipedia, that internet bible dictionary have an entry for that word. An object to behold or something. And what is the value of an object of art that can find itself being sold for almost free on the sidewalk instead of being sold for a whole lot of money on a museum wall somewhere, that same piece of artwork. And how can one judge art. Who is to say if that piece of artwork is good or bad. That whole concept of art and its value and price to be bought and sold as. What is art? Have a great art and more day.

Clean This Thing

Cleaning. And what exactly can I say about that word clean and cleaning that has not already been said in time. Except that if you happen to find yourself as one of those human being dwellers here on planet earth dwelling in one of those structures for shelters from the elements, you may sometimes find yourself surrounded by objects in want of cleaning of some kind or another. And that is where those phrases such as carpet upholstery cleaning service austin, central air duct cleaning austin and classic marble restoration austin can come in handy. And I would assume that one can find these steam team cleaning services in that state of Texas, city of Austin. And what better way to clean those things than with those steam cleaning services to be found on the internet without ever having to leave home, or at least without ever having to leave a computer. Now with the inventions of all things internet, one can find those clean my home services and more with just a website visit away.

WikiLeaks

And I am not exactly sure what all that news is about that recent topic of the day in seemingly all the news of the day on planet earth about a website called WikiLeaks that I assume leaks something that could be wiki, maybe. Though those online debates and dialogues seem to have something to do with censorship, free speech, email, high tech technology and a host of other topics in some of those facebook event invites and news articles with titles like Hackers strike at MasterCard to support WikiLeaks, "WikiLeaks controversy sparks cyber war", "There's no such thing as privacy any more", "Operation: Payback" claims to have shut down Visa website in defense of WikiLeaks", and a whole lot of other articles to be found on the internet, real world and beyond these past few days and weeks. And one of the many facebook events for this topic to be found in my facebookaholicness is as follows. And what, if anything does this have to do with a No Police State?

Emergency Protest to Defend Wikileaks & Julian Assange BRISBANE

More InfoJulian Assange of WikiLeaks has just been arrested in London.

This is the latest in an unprecedented global campaign to destroy WikiLeaks and Assange for daring to defy the powerful and expose the lies, the hypocrisy, and the blood that their apparatus of secrecy is designed to protect.

It is crucial that people in Australia stand up and be counted in defence of free speech and democratic rights. Our government has refused to defend Assange's basic rights as a citizen, and instead has joined the global campaign to silence him.

2012

Okay, now I have found myself blogging about that topic of 2012 on this blog and my other blog in times past. As that date seems as if it has something to do with the mayan calendar, doomsday, the end of kali yuga, the age of aquarius, the end of the world, the end of time and the world as we know it, the magnetic poles of the earth changing, some casmaclytic event, the armageddon, transformation, the occult, or something like that thats been in the news a lot lately. And so somehow I came across this following dialogue somewhere throughout my travels on the internet in internetland and found it interesting, because, hey, it's less writing sometimes, maybe. And this passage seems as if it could be worthy of a lifetime of study into the secret meaning of the unknown, mysticism, religion, and a lot of other voodoo and hoodoo kind of stuff that could be too complex for me to comprehend. And that passage reads as follows.

The sacred Aztec calendar is properly called the Eagle Bowl. It represents the solar deity Tonatiuh. The amazingly accurate calendar has been in use in various forms for more than 2,000 years. A Zapotec prophecy, based on the Eagle Bowl, states:“After Thirteen Heavens of Decreasing Choice, and Nine Hells of Increasing Doom, the Tree of Life shall blossom with a fruit never before known in the creation, and that fruit shall be th...e New Spirit of Men.”The 13 Heavens and 9 Hells were each 52 years long (1,144 years total). Each of the 9 Hells were to be worse than the last. On the final day of the last Hell (August 17, 1987), Tezcatlipoca, god of death, would remove his mask of jade to reveal himself as Quetzelcoatl, god of peace.In the mythology of the Aztecs, the first age of mankind ended with the animals devouring humans. The second age was finished by wind, the third by fire, and the fourth by water. The present fifth epoch is called Nahui-Olin (Sun of Earthquake), which began in 3113 BC and will end on December 24, 2011. It will be the last destruction of human existence on Earth. The date coincides closely with that determined by the brothers McKenna in The Invisible Landscape as “the end of history” indicated by their computer analysis of the ancient Chinese oracle-calendar, the I Ching.The Mayan calendar is divided into Seven Ages of Man. The fourth epoch ended in August 1987. The Mayan calendar comes to an end on Sunday, December 23, 2012. Only a few people will survive the catastrophe that ensues. In the fifth age, humanity will realize its spiritual destiny. In the sixth age, we will realize God within ourselves, and in the seventh age we will become so spiritual that we will be telepathic.
Have a great 2012 and more day. If you believe
