I almost mess up with the schedule of another B day party today, I did once last week. Which really upset my boy. How should I manage my calendar in my phone? I have work email set up in my phone too, all meetings plus my boys swimming class, violin class, piano class, tennis class... Basically I have more than 3 appointments each day! How to prioritize them?

If you connect the dots between the American economy and the European feudal system, you’ll notice the government is playing the role of the Roman Church, the Federal Reserve is the clergy, and Wall Street is the initiator of benefices to their selected vassals across the globe.
This means our industries is basically a state sponsored fiefdom for the 1%- a cesspool of corruption!
So, what happens when a significant minority of Americans introduces a 21st century system to the global market on behalf of future generations? Would it convert the so called ‘hood’ into a financial conglomerate? Can it surpass the violent gaming systems that promote ‘gang-codes’ with one that increases public IQs and local revenue streams… with a ‘moral code’?
Here’s the schematic for a supercomputer IQ test based on the game of chess:
1) The chessboard is the global market relative to our U.S. citizenry
2) The king piece is our Holy Patronage relative to our life insurance
3) The king’s knight is the chief grace bearer of our private sector
4) The Queen is the U.S. Treasury relative to healthcare co ops
5) The Queen’s knight is the chief law bearer of the public sector
6) The Bishop’s are the chief energy bearers of praise and worship
7) The rooks are the chief legislators for the American public
8) And the pawns are the contractors for new industry startups
Here’s your bioenergy assets of U.S. citizenry for new industry startups:
1) Voice energy = wireless communication (throne phone)
2) Brainwave energy = EEG headset (7 hertz halo)
3) Heart beat energy = bio-CD (biometric account)
4) Hormonal frequencies = music (Healthcare co op)

Over the weekend, I was talking to some people who are preparing to contest elections in Delhi later this year. Like us in Bangalore, they are keen on clean politics, decentralisation of power, measurable improvements in public service delivery, etc. The election is several months away, but they are preparing to announce the first list of candidates in June, and hold a long campaign, very similar to what we're doing in this round in KA.
Something similar will happen in Madhya Pradesh also, I learned, when that state goes to the polls as well. We'll have to think about Rajasthan too. There is one thing evident from all this activity - 2013 will be the year that good politics finally became mainstream in India. That is a long-awaited and much needed development.
We've always had good people interested in politics, but they have been too few, and not organised enough to present a coherent and continuous challenge. Isolated gains here and there have not helped to shape the country's politics itself. But with the rise of new politics, we are now in a position to say that from here on, in every state and national election, and surely in many city and panchayat elections too, there will be contestants who stand for clean politics, ideology-based advocacy, and measurable problem solving.
Some of you have asked me whether there is any risk of competition AMONG the new parties themselves, rather than joining forces to fight the current system. We are all alert to our responsibility to fight together. Already in Karnataka, Loksatta and Sarvodaya have joined hands in this election. CPM and its partners in the Left Bloc are also backing the new developments, based on common goals in improving the lives of the working poor. As AAP takes shape in different states, there will be convergence with that too, I'm sure.
If we do all this right in the next few months, we should begin to have the outline of a true, new national front. And unlike the opportunistic ones we see today, it will be easy to tell what binds this coalition together - transparency, decentralisation, goal-orientation in policy and implementation.
2013.
