Sitting in Union station Grill eating white bean soup with southern
flair reminded me that being 1000 yards from The Capital was as good
as any place for an epiphany, and there came before me Spitz and Silda
resigning the Gov.ship in NY. Chatting with a woman next to me, and
watching, while eating, Silda grew in my eyes. Hillary never could be,
as this woman expressed, in her eyes and knowledge of the turn in
fate. Silda is kind of an inverted power, without Bill's hungry eyes,
even Spitz couldn't be assessed in the same way as the former
President, where HRC's ambition is to her husband.
In this case,
Silda's ambition is our pain for her, and ourselves. Imagine a
governor riding down the waves of greed emanating out of Wall Street
and taking them on, only to be sucked into the vortex, and eaten. No,
her stature is of the modern day Jean d'Arc, and we are her legions.
Not against selling sex, for that is the mainline of our 9 trillion
dollar consumer market, rather kicking the greed in the teeth and
making it responsible to the people. When Silda gets mad, it won't be
at Spitz, it'll be at the ongoing unbalance of financial/corporate
greed.

Bloombergian World - We Are The world
America is making the world in it's own image, but not like the French
think, after all democracy began there, and when it came here, it was
ONE NATION UNDER GOD.
Cast dispersions on God, cast dispersion on virtually anything that
sells newspapers, only realize that the meaning of God is a cliché
associated with Kings, Presidents, Popes, all who speak for the gifts
from God to the people.
One Nation Under God refers to a singular spiritual moment that
created the wealthiest nation in history, not money, but ability to
see the new being, the coming reality. Emerson refers to this as "the
state of happy souls" (on earth).
"This brings to mind our favorite argument. God. One nation under God
does not mean that the church of blank has taken control of our
country. The original phrase refers to an interpretation of God as
individual energy and collective energies of people, who come together
for combining differences in a workable union. The higher abstraction
is essential because it encompasses all peoples who congregate for the
love of god, or not. Thereby these American states have enabled the
growth and building of extraordinary wealth in a fast-moving society,
yet, a 'nation under god' for which many have died defending and
reaffirming this important precept. God as seen as combining energies
is that big. Huge in fact when you view older countries locked into
one way."

A man for whom the people rally is the coming of the Messiah, but
Obama is Not the Messiah, the People are the Messiah. The moment is
not to be mis-seen as an American grabbing for attention, of health
care, for balance against the exploitation of the market, the
inordinate power of lobbyists in DC, (and who but Bloomberg sees the
practicality of elementary education as the avenue to the future), and
yes we do talk down to Americans and not UP. We Are the World, it is
a matter of destiny, it is the Peace Corp re-modeled as the creative
corp, the seeking of alternative knowledge and ways that frees the
democratic spirit and creates wealth of being.
Mike Bloomberg is not running for President? He is The President. I am
The President. The People are The President.
Too many moments are being wasted as America lives the SPORT MOMENT of
the elections, where everything is trivialized, reporters become
'whiners' for something good to write about, and everybody gets excited
by the score, not the future.
NOW IS THE TIME.

Letter to Editor
To the Editor:
In these economic times, we are in this together. We have been for 200 years. By town or state, region or country, we need to build for the future. Of all the issues facing the greater Camden area, very few are about one town. That was true in the days when people lived, worked and managed their lives in one village. No more is this true.
The five town region collaborated on a high school, but refuses to see the infrastructure of roads that feed people down to the schools, or to jobs which are so important. The money is on the coast. Development of coastal property and business is Maine’s largest industry.
A recent meeting in Lincolnville with Governor Baldacci brings home the reality that the State is responsible for main roads, and the towns must service the back roads. These back roads are now main thoroughfares, because the region is thickening out with population everywhere. Many live out 30-40 miles where it is less expensive, but drive into Rockport-Camden for business.
So, what is important is our inability to see what is important. Is there any reason why the wealth on the coast should help the inland towns? Well, wealth is something, but health is even more important. Higher coastal taxes are essential, but that doesn’t create prerogatives of non-responsibility.
This brings to mind our favorite argument. God. One nation under God does not mean that the church of blank has taken control of our country. The original phrase refers to an interpretation of God as individual energy and collective energies of people, who come together for combining differences in a workable union. The higher abstraction is essential because it encompasses all peoples who congregate for the love of god, or not. Thereby these American states have enabled the growth and building of extraordinary wealth in a fast-moving society, yet, a ‘nation under god’ for which many have died defending and reaffirming this important precept. God as seen as combining energies is that big. Huge in fact when you view older countries locked into one way.
How is this relevant to the Five Town school region? It is said that Camden and Rockport Police are working on combining departments. Is this a tipping point of the iceberg? Why not go forth and create a new model entity, which surely would be able to receive state or federal funding, to reduce township log jam, and create a municipality.
The simple fact is, working together can be more efficient, produce better quality of living, and cost less is no commanding thought hereabouts. Our bureaucrats and selectmen have no desire to change the status quo, why would they? It works for them. The change will not come out of need, or automatically, it will be by only the will of the people.
Seeing growth and development as positive, not negative, is the key. Combining road departments for new and better roads is urgently needed now. Building an acceptable refuse and trash transfer station out of Rockport is essential now. Combining five town CODE and staffing a central office is essential now. Upgrading town employment wages linked to education is essential now. And, getting the government out of townships into a fast and deliberate municipality is essential now, because it is our destiny to solve problems together, so that we may go forward as a society.

Last Glimpse of a 2007 Sun Video!
If we tried to guess why, we'd be wrong. Or if not wrong, deceived. What is, is. The sun sets everyday, but on 31 December 2007, it is New Years Eve. We can rejoice. And, it helps to be in Watsonville, near Santa Cruz California, at the top of Monterey Bay, and see what there is to see. Almost too much to believe.... Beauty is NOT ALWAYS present, but when it is, we are awake and see the world dressed in light, -AND see that beauty is within us. Beauty is not "on the shelf,' it is a state of being.
