26 July 13 -- I'M RUNNING WAY BEHIND IN UPDATING THIS PAGE
Friends, as explained in my bulletin, "TEMPORARY SLOW-DOWN IN BLOG UPDATING -- an explanation," I am necessarily behind in my updating of things. Yet, I really would like this page to be a sort of a "menu" of timeless bulletins. I'll get back to updating as soon as I can, unless I figure out something even better. Happy Friday to you all == D.Nelson
1. Purpose
To list, all in one place, following this introduction, an accumulation of bulletins of an especially enduring character.
Specific accumulator-categories included below are:
0. GENERAL RESOURCES (all levels of news sources, City & County government, etc)
- Emergency & Disaster Readiness
- Health
- Education, Mental Development, & Self-Improvement
- Entertainment & Leisure
- Household, Home Life, & Safety
- Financial & Consumer Safety Issues
- The Military Services
- Politics
- Society, in General
2. Background
a. Many of these special bulletins were not placed on the seasonal "Blog Contents Tables" at the top of the bulletin board -- since those pages stress sequence. You've probably noticed that I've been shifting many of these "orphans" around the bulletin board as I work on Version 2.0 of this City-Journal.
b. This accumulator is the "next-to-the last step," on the way to a better presentation for these and future bulletins. I must stabilize permanent locations for such as this, with easier and more logical interface access -- and ease of automation for my small "staff" -- and I shall. That's one of the things Version 2.0 is about.
c. Please remember that this entire blog is PRELIMINARY during these early years -- in mostly rough, imperfect draft form. I find that the information just can't wait while I get "all my ducks in a row." I simply MUST go public with this system-building tool (the PCJ), as-is, despite my discomfort at widely revealing apparent (and real) flaws in my work. I often see them, but must keep pressing on with everything on my lengthy list, simultaneously.
d. Also, you need to understand that, for now, this PCJ-component (of larger systems to come) is a "one-man show," so I have lots of balls I have to keep in the air at the same time. Once things take hold, I will have something solid and sufficiently thought-out around which to build and empower a business organization, "The Mentor Enterprises / ELMS" (working title) to take over from me. Then things will really fly toward completest fulfillment for us. Meanwhile, I will install stand-alone systems and system-groups, as these become available -- for immediate use. Later, the corporation will be responsible for refinement and perpetuation.
e. Finally, as do we all, I have the usual human vulnerabilities -- the unexpected and unpredictable constraints and opportunities that scramble best-laid plans -- including needing a few days break, from time-to-time. But "overcoming" is the order of the days, months, and years. This is not an apology or complaint -- just giving you enough information (I hope) so you can better endure the wait for me to do all I've set out to do.
