An Open Society Sharing Resources

In a paid feedback survey yesterday with Public Voice SF ( PublicVoiceSF.org ), we looked at a build of the SF Business Portal. This model online software would keep a government folder of all the different business licenses someone: Driving an Uber or Lyft or Flywheel or indie-owned taxi,  airBnB-renting a spare room,  delivering with Postmates,  waiting tables,  doing product demos, selling the good parts … Continue reading An Open Society Sharing Resources

Idea: Use and Sell Mortgage-Backed Securities to Protect, Ensure & Secure ROI (Return On Investment)

What I’m suggesting is like selling an insulated investment. A mortgage-backed security investing in small borrower instabilities could simultaneously scale down defaults with the instrument  AND over time in the borrower pool…. Peace. Emeryville, California February 10th 2017 P.S. I hope everyone’s Black History Month is going well…. ​​ Continue reading Idea: Use and Sell Mortgage-Backed Securities to Protect, Ensure & Secure ROI (Return On Investment)

Empowerment, Dignity and Understanding (E-D-U) Ending Crime

An alternative in presenting this idea: Empowered/Educated And Dignified, Understanding People (‘EAD UP) To End Crime  ​ You’ll see National Geographic is compiling the genetic information for human genomic research.

There are trust deficits aplenty for … Continue reading Empowerment, Dignity and Understanding (E-D-U) Ending Crime

Residing Fully In Your Power 1

A flyer with all types of starting-up-solar service providers and tools. From SEMI and Intersolar’s SEMICON WEST event.  As far as I can tell, this is an area where the technology is NOT final. I saw 4 or 5 different approaches to converting (in their field, “inverting”) the Sun’s light to usable energy. Among them was one that looked how servers still look sometimes: in … Continue reading Residing Fully In Your Power 1

Cleaning Up 2

I like to do the neighborhood clean ups local parks and pot clubs do. One is put together by Waterfall Wellness – on Ocean Avenue.  It’s kind of a cool way to spend time. Also a really low-cost way to keep your whole damn neighborhood clean. One lounge in the Mission District, Bernal Heights Collective, has a real regular crew. I think sponsoring clean ups … Continue reading Cleaning Up 2

Reading Good…

…and even “Great!!!” Books- pretty sure the Holy Bible is on that list- if it ain’t, that’s what I be talking about.  The Holy Q’uran, it would follow logically, will also be on that list when I check it now? “[…]evil[…]: wealth hoarded to the harm of its owners[. …] When they have children there is nothing to inherit https://t.co/Orw3ybCC9i — Alberto Rivera (@h2Onotflammable) January 18, … Continue reading Reading Good…
