A little NY moment
I did a last min IKEA run last night and ended up on the F train sitting next to a guy who just got word that his book was getting published. Instead of keeping my headphones in, I decided to ask him some questions and we got into a conversation. I kind of forget his name but it sounded like a good self-help book for artists and creatives who need help learning how to listen to themselves. Anyway, a little NY moment.

Not sure what this could be used for, but sounds incredibly fascinating.
An underwater microphone located in the depths of Monterey Bay has recorded tens of thousands of hours of sound. That extensive acoustic archive has been invaluable to MBARI researchers and collaborators. This unique dataset has provided valuable insight into the ocean soundscape for the past six years—from the behaviors of whales to the impacts of human activities on marine life. Now, Pacific Ocean Sound Recordings makes that trove of acoustic data accessible to researchers around the world via the Registry of Open Data on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud.

Dancer Moira Shearer must make up her mind between domestic contentment and the vicissitudes of pursuing artistic excellence in Powell and Pressburger’s brilliant backstage drama, with her “suitors” represented by young, doting composer Marius Goring and imperious impresario Anton Walbrook. A ravishing fantasia that has enchanted generations of moviegoers with its stunning stylistics and dramatic inquiry into the difficult relationship between life and art, all coming to a head with its famous 14-minute ballet climax.

Eiichi Shibusawa: The Spirit of Japanese Ethical Capitalism & Sustainability
Japan Society, Living Traditions Series
Thursday, November 11 at 7–8 pm EST (4–5 pm PST)
Eiichi Shibusawa—widely known as the father of Japanese capitalism following the Meiji Restoration in the mid-19th century—died 90 years ago on November 11, but his influence continues today. An influential entrepreneur and business leader, Shibusawa (1840-1931) was involved in the founding of approximately 500 modern economic institutions in sectors such as banking, insurance, textiles, paper and railroads, as well as 600 social enterprises. Shibusawa embraced the millennia-old teachings of Confucianism, cultivating virtue in economic endeavors, and his firm belief in those principles led him to publish his renowned book, Rongo an Soroban (Analects of Confucius and the Abacus). Today’s speakers discuss how Shibusawa’s philosophy is very relevant to ESG and SDGs in today’s social and business environment. This is the third of the five-part Living Traditions webinar series.

Dan Olson, CFA, CFP® discusses how the many changes in the tax code come together to help you plan for the 2021 tax year and beyond.
Making Sense of Your Taxes for 2021 and Beyond
NY Public Library, Thomas Yoseloff Business Center
Wed, November 3, 2021, 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM EDT
In 2021, taxpayers have been treated to a mind-bending array of adjustments to the tax code that started in 2020 (or even 2017). Many of the stimulus initiatives were delivered via the IRS, as are transfer payments related to recent tax proposals. These changes will impact taxable income, tax credits, retirement distributions/contributions, estate taxes, etc. How do you make sense out of this? And is there anything special that New Yorkers should know since they have one of the highest tax rates in the country? Daniel Olson, CFA, CFP® discusses how these moving parts come together so you can develop a plan for this 2021 tax year and beyond. Topics covered include income taxes, retirement savings, education benefits, stimulus payments, and investments.

A look back on the news events from 2014 reveals a confusing, muddled mess. Things are increasingly chaotic, along with the reporting of the events in the culture of 24-7 rolling news, sound-byte feeds and the Internet. The result, as we see, is not a coherent public understanding of these complex events, but more a profound mass-confusion, with discourse destroyed, which in-turn broods disengagement from the world and further atomises an already divided-and-conquered public. It is this response that is a powerful form of social control, and is by design… -- 2014

Oh Dearism
As the mainstream media attempts to create a simple narrative from hugely complex events, much is obviously lost in the translation—most often purposefully. This short film attempts to contrast the character of this narrative in the 1990s, where events were almost universally portrayed as ‘the little guy versus the big guy’ to the post Rwanda narrative of ‘scattered terrible things happening everywhere, Oh Dear.’ It is not that we can’t actually do anything about these events, it is only that mainstream media presents these events within a framework that makes it seem that way and that in itself is a very powerful way to control society. -- 2009
