Quickly jotted down a few inspirational sources for ”’fair money distribution games”’:

Based on these sources as well as input from [http://authenticiteit.nl/ Gaston Vilé], [http://www.vernieuwendmanagen.nl/ Stanley van Maaren] en [http://harryvandervelde.nl/ Harry van der Velde], I wrote up ”'[http://wiki.aardrock.com/Oprechte_deelgeving oprechte deelgeving]”’ (Dutch).
Thoughts?
Quantum Quackery
Quantum physics is claimed to support the mystical notion that the mind creates reality. However, an objective reality, with no special role for consciousness, human or cosmic, is consistent with all observations.

Amigo—zicht op enkelvoudige eenvoud—over Jnana Yoga, Advaita Vedanta en andere Non-dualistische benaderingen.
Mooie en diepe teksten met een typografische kwinkslag op http://www.ods.nl/amigo/ Met dank aan Eduard Povel voor de tip toen hij me gisteren [http://www.ods.nl/amigo/amigo10/nn_zin.html De betekenis van het leven] stuurde.

Eduard Povel tipped me on the Natural Capital Institute today—helping society move towards a socially just and environmentally restorative existence.
”’All open source. Hurray!”’
Wow, what a fine initiative. I’m going to contact them to find synergy between NCI and my LandONE initiative.
Quantum Consciousness
Stumbled over http://www.quantumconsciousness.org/. Don’t want to forget about it so this is just a little reminder for me to find back later and explore…
2012
Lot’s of interesting stuff on http://2012.startpagina.nl/. Must say that I still need to get used to the more excentric stuff like crop circles, and 2012 prophecies.
Thanks for this pointer as well, Eduard.
Martien’s compass
This morning, I got an email from Ronald Bernard from [http://www.spirittowin.nl/ Spirit to Win] that caused me to line up my short-, mid-, and longterm vision and plans. I like this line up so much, I’ll share them with y’all.

Beware, some is in Dutch, some in English. The Dutch stuff will be transformed into English some time.
Car running on water?
I’ve heard about fuel cells that run on the energy release when hydrogen and oxygen bind in to water. And where you still need energy up front to split the water into these two components.
But Eduard Povel pointed me to ”'[http://www.byronnewenergy.com/ Byron New Energy]”’, also using water, but ‘cosmic charged water’, delivering [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perpetual_motion perpetual motion] that may well solve our hunger for energy.
Interesting. Will dive into it.
NNN Concept
[http://wiki.aardrock.com/images/4/44/NNN-Concept.pdf ]
Een voorlopig concept voor de werking en functionaliteit van NNN. Alles op één A4-tje. Bespreken we met de kernkring op vrijdag 23 maart in Haarlem.
”’Klik op het plaatje voor een hoog-resolutie PDF versie”’ (100 KB).
Hmmm… although initially interesting, on closer look there does not seem much activity here. Resonates with my Smart Spiritual Software. Wonder how to rekindle this initiative.

Spiritual Computing – The Mindfulness/Technology Dialogue
(Via Del.icio.us Tag: spiritual.)
Excellent Holistic Quantum Relativity Glossary aiming at providing meanings for those concepts, abstractions, thoughts, observations and views in Spirituality which converge with modern Science and vice-versa.
From DK Matal: The key findings of Quantum Physics point towards Holistic Quantum Relativity and the Holotropic State, especially:
*Dr David Bohm’s work about the universe being made up of an “interconnected unbroken wholeness”;
*The Non-Locality phenomena, ie, Bell’s Theorem; and
*The ‘Observer Effect’ implying that consciousness underlies all reality.
Points 1, 2 and 3—taken together—have striking parallels with the timeless spiritual concepts that all reality is the manifestation of an Infinite Singularity—Creative Principle—which we may choose to name Self-Designing Source, Supra-Universal Consciousness, Divine Principle or God. This demonstrates that Quantum Physics is moving the boundaries of our thinking towards the Holotropic State. Holotropic means “moving toward wholeness.” [Origin: Greek “Holos” = whole and “Trepein” = moving in the direction of]
Linking scientific paradigms
From Slashdot:
Here is a giant chart mapping relationships among scientific paradigms, as published in the journal Nature.
Interesting to see the void between the soft human/social (red) and hard, materialistic scientific (blue) science scapes being bridged by computer and earth sciences. Wonder what will fill that void and when. Want to see the map extended to philosophy, religion and spirtuality as well.
