sudo crowd

by Eddan Katz

http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-crowd As Vicky has already mentioned - the Legal Café that the Sustainable Economies Law Center hosted at LOLSpace was super-helpful for all of us who went. I had the good fortune of talking to Sushil Jacob of the EBCLC about the cooperative corporations he's been working on creating within the Green Collar economy initiative he's helping lead. More on that later. I also got to talk to Caroline Lee of SELC, who's a recent Berkeley Law grad who has been doing research on the JOBS Act crowdfunding provisions. She recently wrote about it on Shareable for those interested in more detailed information - http://www.shareable.net/blog/investment-crowdfunding-poised-to-take-a-gian…. I also learned of a the crucial Crowdfunding intermediary process going on at FINRA (Financial Industry Regulation Authority). Their portal for further information is at http://www.finra.org/Industry/Issues/Crowdfunding/ - and there's even a short form to send FINRA for those entities interested in being registered as crowdfunding intermediaries. http://www.finra.org/Industry/Issues/Crowdfunding/. I am planning on filling this out soon and sending it in case anyone else is interested in working on that. There is also a public comments period until Feb. 3, 2014 (all crowdfunding intermediaries must be registered with them). The request for comments is at http://www.finra.org/Industry/Regulation/Notices/2013/P370744; and unfortunately means going through another ~600 page document, which I have only started to do. If anyone is interested in further discussing this and all things related to crowdfunding, I will be moving this thread over to the Sudo-Crowd list. http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-crowd. There are some people outside of Sudo Room interested in participating in the coordination of these public comments and applications and so I'd rather have the discussion there separate from this list. I think that the combination of SEC comments, FINRA comments, and the SASB comments I mentioned earlier on reporting requirements for sustainability accounting really covers all the issues that need to be taken into account at this point to understand what a Crowdfunding platform might have to deal with. So please join the list. http://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-crowd I'll be putting together more organized wiki pages with info on this and where people could collaboratively put these comments together. The scratch pages I had up somehow got deleted. sent from eddan.com

"Made in China" Group Show

by Troy Massey

"You are the source of Freedom : the price of Freedom is awareness and action" Subject: Presented by Loakal at Ian Ross Gallery- Opens Friday! Reply-To: Loakal Gallery & Boutique <loakal(a)57-33.com> "Made in China" Presented by Loakal Opens November 8 View this email in your browser Made In China" Group Show Presented by Loakal Opening Reception: November 8, 7-10 PM @ Ian Ross Gallery (466 Brannan St., San Francisco.) The upcoming group exhibition, “Made in China,” presented by Loakal Gallery at Ian Ross Gallery, seeks to probe our society’s underlying assumptions regarding originality, intellectual property and the value of art. Curator Eddie Colla invited a group of established and emerging contemporary artists to create an original painting and send a photo of their work to a factory in China — a factory where reproductions of Monets and other masterworks are painted to be sold as kitschy home decorations in the West. The Chinese factory artists then reproduced the works based on the photographs and shipped them back to Ian Ross Gallery, where the original paintings and the Chinese “counterfeits” will be displayed side-by-side. The opening reception is free and open to the public. Many of the artists and the curator will be in attendance. RSVP on Facebook.

A "Jedi" can apologize for being wrong. The sith "dealing in absolutes"."

by spectral imix

A "Sith"-like attitude insists on an innate "goodness" and "badness" (or more appropriately "us-ness" and "them-ness") in everything. The "Jedi" understand that no object or action is intrinsically good or evil. Intention and effect matter, turning black and white into shades of gray. The fundamental difference between the sides is not "good" and "evil". (Everyone has the potential for both.) The real difference is between a desire to control one's environment for personal power and security, and the desire to serve the greater good of all. A "Sith" believes in him/herself, forming temporary alliances only for the purpose of gaining greater personal advantage. A "Jedi" seeks and fosters the good in everyone, risking and sacrificing personal safety and reputation to benefit the whole. Their actions may occasionally resemble each other but their motivations are very different. The "Jedi" mentality DOES have "absolutes" of a sort. The preservation of life (particularly intelligent life), freedom (physical and intellectual), justice (without regard to status) and the like are enduring values for "Jedi"-like people. But they understand that the universe is morally neutral, that often one value is pitted against another by the unscrupulous, and that sometimes the best that can be done is a moral compromise. The "Sith" prefer to concretize their "morality". Disloyalty to THIS leader is wrong. Partaking in THAT specific activity is evil. An uncensored discussion of social alternatives is morally decadent. Categorically, without exception, never mind the intent. A "virtuous" act is always "good". A troublemaker is always "bad". A "Jedi" can observe the ethical situation, note changes, and change his mind about a good idea implemented badly, or a disreputable strategy that actually produces good. A "Jedi" can apologize for being wrong. A "Sith" cannot afford to be inconsistent for fear of losing credibility. Any change in allegiance must be framed and propagandized to appear as part of the plan all along. The "Sith" is about appearances rather than reality. The world is never black and white, but the "Sith" pretends it is. That is what is meant by "dealing in absolutes"."

Let us take a moment to meditate on this week and the efforts of our members. Minutes: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Meeting_Notes_2013-11-06

dark mail kickstarter

by Anthony Di Franco

This seems good to support: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ladar/lavabits-dark-mail-initiative "Along with preserving existing functionality, the team will build in support for the Dark Mail protocol. Dark Mail, a newly developed messaging protocol, is designed to provide end-to-end encryption of both the message itself and the email in transit. Because encryption will be integrated into the protocol itself, it will be invisible to the user. Dark Mail users will get the security of PGP without the cognitive burden; *if someone can use email today they will be able to use Dark Mail tomorrow*." *← Finally this* "The project will also include building, and releasing as F/OSS, the first Dark Mail compatible clients. We are planning to launch with clients for the desktop (Win, Mac, Lin), smartphones and tablets (iOS, Android)."
