  1. I have an idea for a lampoon on the Govt. flag referendum.
    A picture of children holding their choice of flag. Some kids waving the, ” Butchers Apron,” some sporting this new travesty and the other kids ( Poor) waving a a flag crafted from Glad Wrap.

    ” The Disposable Generation.”

    I just do not have a grasp on photo shop. So I am throwing it out there for someone else to take up if desired.

    https://www.rt.com/shows/keiser-report/325366-episode-max-keiser-847/

    “n this episode of the Keiser Report, Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert discuss the situation in Paris where they find, “Je suis en terrasse, mais je vote FN.” They cut to a special interview on the Champs des Elysees with Alec Baldwin in Paris for COP21.

    In the second half, Max interviews Chris Ellis of ProTip – Not Just Made In China, handmade Bitcoin Fullnodes to support the decentralization of the bitcoin network and the ProTip fundraiser at StartJOIN.com. Chris demonstrates how the Fullnode works and discusses his plans to send them to places around the world, like Botswana. The Bitcoin Fullnode project would not have been possible without the support of Whaleclub Teamspeak, in particular: Alex Kosinski (@PQMerkle) and Drak (@BTCDrak), Bitcoin Core Developer and everyone at the World Crypto Network and a special thanks to the guys at Bitseed: Jay Feldis & John Light.”

    ‘US psychologist Philip Zimbardo’

    “Philip Zimbardo is the American psychologist whose 1971 study on prison mentality exposed the ease at which participants playing the role of guards, began psychologically torturing their prisoners.The Stanford Prison Experiment centred on a group of college students who were deemed prisoners or guards at the flip of a coin and showed that within 24 hours those with power, used it mercilessly – and the group who were prisoners succumbed to submission just as easily.

    In recent years he has turned his attention to the disconnect between males and the real world because of online pornography, and a lack of role models and positive interactions. Preofessor Zimbardo is also behind a new initiative Heroic Imagination Project, which stems from his work on what makes people do bad things – and instead focuses on what qualities make people act in heroic ways.”
