SOTOMAYOR'S DILEMMA

Yes, the blog is varied thematically, and suffers decidedly from a lack of SEO.  I suppose I don' t really care, as I liken the thinking and writing process to driving a race car----not being mechanically inclined, and expecting fully that all which is technical remain in its sphere, allowing for maximum creativity during the drive. A political musing:  Senator Jeff Sessions' predilections typically are predictable---staid and steadfast on course to keep the ship of justice righted through his notion of conservatism, and careful inquiry. His latest machinations, a strangely poignant statement asserting that if Supreme court judges were to possess empathy, (and possibly judiciously apply this in the formulation of a decision) by default, they must possess (and presumably promulgate) prejudice. Upon examination, it appears specious to suggest that one human trait must be counter-balanced by another. For example, Senator Sessions might well love Senator Kennedy (or not), therefore he must hate, say, Senator Franken.  Silly on its face. This is one example of the balance needed by those who cannot abide evolution of thought and processes. And without equivocation, must be regarded as a 'lesser' human trait, much like the need to wage war. So, not for the reasons which empathy might simply speak well for the character of the individual---but rather, it appears some learned persons, and perhaps our society's intellectual framework demands some sort of 'balance.' This is small-minded, and asks for a form of safety net, from which traditional thinking is protected from innovative thinking. Is it not practical to believe that innovation, (both in thought and action) propagates a world of best practices. Innovation seeks more---it seeks depth which enhances knowledge itself. On it face, it is reasonable to argue that an individual of the experience and quality of Judge Sotomayor could very possible possess certain qualities of empathy, yet remain fundamentally opposed to prejudice. Comments made by the good Judge regarding her belief that a 'wise latina women.......would come to a better decision than a white man..' quite true, from the context which it was framed. But in fact, the vilification process continues. However, a white judge, submersed in a legal argument involving tenants and idiosyncrasies of white culture, partially exclusionary, would 'come to a better decision than a latina woman.' Difficult to argue with, if the notion of deep personal experience positions one to use the full force of all information, when dimensions of a problem are endemic to those who 'live in that moment' as opposed to a personally more distant view from the intellect or rooted in academia rather than the essence of any issue. Is not the law a breathing entity? Must those who function as the final arbitrators of law wear the blindfold so oddly revered through the notion that 'justice is blind?' Blindness, while appreciated for its relationship to fulfillment of a non-prejudicial event, is only one human sense. Could not other senses of humanity act as just a powerful prejudice? What if tonal quality of a human voice were judged as a primary reason to rule against an otherwise just measure, a measure then lost for consideration due to the nature of its communication to others----a whiny voice, perhaps reminiscent of a grating sound akin to a Tiny Tim song. Similarly, computer generated voices are generally regarded as an objectionable method of communication by many humans----thus, the message, no matter its significance, perhaps its vital importance is lost amidst the cries of foul from those wishing, perhaps, for more empathy. One cannot wring empathy from a machine.Yet one can hope for revelatory events, as when governmental officials awaken to the fact that experience is not bias, it is the stuff of reality. It is the water in the glass.

Report and update

Yes, I realize it has been some time since I have posted, but that doesn't mean I haven't been embroiled in an array of work-at-home schemes. 

During this round of research, I entered the world of High Yield Investment Programs, which generally demand a higher risk of losing your money.  It was unbelievable  the number of obvious scammers, many of whom were able to convince  ordinary people  that they would enjoy great riches  through a number of 'investment' vehicles.'  It's likely that 90% of these type programs are set up for failure-----they will pay out for a while, then simply close up shop. 

The FBI, SEC and other government agencies are working overtime trying to curtail these criminals.  I am even helping out with some information I was able to get on one major scammer who extracted 20 million dollars from the unsuspecting. He still remains free.

For the record, I did alright generally (being conservative), and have ended up in the leveraged silver market.

Of course, the real picture here is that one can clearly walk away from many of these programs losing all your money---also,it just isn't for the faint of heart.  It is clear through the postings on related Forums that failure is way more common than success.  Too many sad stories.

Programs are here and paying one day, then gone the next. 

For that reason, I will not be recommending ANY of the 30 or so 'opportunities' I tested out.  Suffice it so say than unless your are willing to learn how to trade foreign currencies (and this is a complicated process) you should stay away from these circles altogether.

As far as Ken Evoy's SiteSell, Jim Daniels, and Joe Robson, (my recommended programs on the on the left)  they are all still alive, well, and moving forward to develop their programs to adapt to the times.  If you can see yourself with your own website, and are able to fully comprehend what niche marketing is, or be willing to develop a profitable affiliate marketing web presence, these are the guys to go with.  Without question.

Now, please do not fall for these business 'opportunities' which promise $5000 per week---they are a dime a dozen-----and will drain your pocketbook. (which is probably already fairly empty)  If you surf the Net at all, I am sure you have all seen things like the Reverse Tunnel, and other impossible dream scenarios.  Stay away. 

I am presently investigating the 'real', more work-a day- type jobs, the difference being that the companies involved pay you to stay home and answer customer service calls, become a 'virtual' assistant, and myriad other companies  offering hourly wages.

I have joined practically every newsletter which promotes these type programs, and am considering paying for a subscription to moneyfromhome.com, a reputable firm by some accounts.  I am still doing background research on them, and will report all success to you should I move forward.

So, I am very busy looking into all these programs----I am going to have to join several myself (if I can get hired), so I will have some first hand information for you to digest.

Good luck to everyone.  I will update this blog on a more regular basis in the future.
