Impland - An Alien Utopia: A 40th Anniversary Retrospective /ScottOnTheSpot/impland-an-alien-utopia-a-40th-yer-anniversary-retrospective impland-analienutopia-e-versionrotatedhorizontalpages-230522133557-8c114327
"IMPLAND: AN ALIEN UTOPIA A 40th Anniversary Retrospective" Scott Baker Manuscript (46 pp.) KIRKUS BOOK REVIEW In this illustrated SF book, a writer revisits the alien world that he imagined and built throughout his childhood. Baker first conceived of the Imps when he was only 3 years old. These intriguing aliens, who reach all of 1 foot as adults, somewhat resemble beans, with noses almost as long as their spindly legs. They live inside a climate-controlled cavern in "Imp World"-one of the 25 moons of the planet Obor in the Milky Way galaxy. In this volume, the author looks back at different "editions" of his Imp writings, dating from when he was a child in the 1960s through his early 20s. He compiles old, sketched diagrams of spaceships and Imp World as well as typewritten specifics on the aliens' biology, ecology, government, and transportation system. Much of the material is gleefully inventive; all Imps are born female, and those whose eggs are fertilized eventually turn male. They are various colors, although "Color Changing Tanks" allow an Imp to choose a different one. The author's drawings are wonderfully and meticulously detailed, from the Imps' anatomy to the layout of the Surface Center, which rests between a subterranean city and Imp World's surface. But in other instances, this world mirrors familiar sights on Earth. Additional creatures on Imp World, for example, include the electric snake, the striped bird, and tyris, which are fish. Imps get around in floating trucks and buses and even simple boats and submarines. Baker cohesively ties together all of the alien facts and diagrams and earnestly discusses his decadeslong creation. But his retrospection comes with a bit of welcome humor, as when he notes the parts he ""never got around to doing,"" and some clear sources of inspiration (for instance, maglev trains and the author's fascination with caverns). In the end, Baker has the foundation of an SF saga that's waiting for a story and a hero. An entertaining retrospective that explores a smart and innovative alien civilization." ]]>

Based on a contracted assignment from the Oakland, CA chapter of the Public Banking Institute, a real-world model was created to simulate a Public Bank for that city. A document utilizing a custom spreadsheet, based on an established simple bank spreadsheet, that considers a Public Bank's: Startup Costs, Sources of funding for both capitalization and deposits, fixed costs, operating ratios, performance metrics, loan loss scenarios, ROE & ROA. Comparisons are made to commercial banks and advantages of the public banking model are described in real results. The main main is a hypothetical Bank of Oakland (pop. 413,000), using real data from their 2015 CAFR, 8 years of returns and dividends to repay initial equity to the pension fund. A second result is used to test the model for New Hampshire, showing economy of scale for that State Bank. The model spreadsheet's screenshots are included in the document.]]>

Four Trillion Dollar plus solutions to our Economic Problems, tried and proven. - Sovereign Money - Georgism - Public Banking - Ending Government Financial Asset Hoarding (GFAH) Based on my new book: America is Not Broke! Available on Amazon: http://amzn.to/1Ihcc54 AMERICA IS NOT BROKE! Four Multi-Trillion Dollar Paths to A Thriving America The unsustainability of the American economy is as familiar as the newscycle. There is no money for social programs, no money to run the government, no money to cut taxes, and above all, we have to cut, cut, cut. But, what if it's not true? Instead of familiar complaints about the national debt, leading to just slicing a shrinking economic pie differently, or worse, to Austerity Economics, the reality is that we already have all the wealth we could ever need. The tried and proven proposals in America Is Not Broke would guarantee America's prosperity, fairness, democracy, and economic and ecological sustainability. Four multi-trillion dollar reforms: Sovereign Money, Georgism, Public Banking, and Ending Government Financial Asset Hoarding, plus a few other major reforms, show how we can have it all, if we only learn where to look.]]>
