Dear Larry, Peter, and World University & School Foundation (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Foundation),

Item 2 for the Monthly Business Meeting Agenda & News for World University and School on 8/17/19.

Searched on "Google Meet video conference into Youtube video to replace Hangouts?" And re https://youtube.com/user/WorldUnivandSch ?

While Google Meet looks great - "New Video Conferencing Experience with Hangouts Meet | The G Suite Show" ...

https://youtu.be/lkvig0i_kI8 - and different for G Suite users (like WUaS - eg info@worlduniversityandschool.org),

I still haven't seen whether it will become the basis for real, real time music-making - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Musical_Jamming (in the https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Music_School).

WUaS continues to be both Google Platform-centric, as well as Wikidata-centric in its ~300 languages, as we develop further.

Cheers, Scott

... am finding both (Non-theist)Quaker and Taoist (Wu Wei ... 'non-action') thinking helpful ... Hoping good funding streams will emerge, since Reed College's Sept. 14 2019 FAR weekend (Forum for Advancing Reed) doesn't have any more airfare reimbursements this year, and it also could cost to stay in a hotel (and I didn't call up any friends about staying with them either). Ongoing elusive funding for WUaS and myself, as we continue to get World Univ & Sch for a song! :)

Hi Mark,

Think I'm getting back into Ancestry.com after a Cuttyhunk hiatus.

Looks like I'm paying $19.99/month to A.com, I saw recently, so it's probably worth my getting the AncestryDNA information into Ancestry.com itself, learning a bit about this new approach to family history, downloading a GEDCOM file, and then taking a vacation for awhile, possibly while developing new approaches in WikiTree - https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/MacLeod-2524. (See this World Univ & Sch recent post - https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1156549832749850628 - re WUaS's poverty too; WUaS hasn't yet become financially operational to speak of after some 9 years when we became a 501 c 3, and WUaS became a parallel for-profit general stock company legal entity in 2017). Have you checked out you in WikiTree - https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/MacLeod-2527 (and here's your Dad - https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/MacLeod-2532 - too, Professor Bruce Vincent MacLeod, both of which I added) by any chance? I think both sites will offer different methodologies re genealogical approaches, and both have a DNA focus as well.

Will check out some of the birth date questions you touch on here -


Monday, July 22, 2019
Scott,

It would be great if there was an automatic way to sort out conflicts like birth dates. Surprisingly, I've come across hundreds of instances of mismatched dates. I try to rely on something official like a birth certificate, and hopefully find the same date in more than one document. But at the end of the day I've simply decided not to worry about a birthdate or other event being a day or two off (was one date a birth and the other a baptism?). I've even come across grave stones where the inscribed birth year is wrong (e.g. George S. MacLeod, buried in Portland). 

One unresolved mystery is the birth year of Ernest James MacLeod. His birth certificate is clear - he was born Aug 10, 1876. But Ernest often listed his birth date as Aug 8, 1877 including on his draft card and naturalization documents. Odd.  

I think I accessed your father's record to add the 'II' to his name and to check whether I found reference to his burial in Find-a-Grave (I did).

Mark 


... as I get back into Ancestry.com. Haven't yet updated - http://scottmacleod.com/ScottMacLeodFamilyHistory.htm - but hope to soon, now that I'm back in Canyon 94516.

Have you already seen Sandy, Gerry and Mary Lou at the lake in Buxton? How were / are they? It could be interesting to explore EASILY and SIMPLY adding an online video aspect to the MacLeod family reunion at Bonny Eagle on 8/1/20 you've mentioned. This would allow family, particularly yours, from around the world/country, who might be interested to join, hypothetically. Would be particularly great if someone from Bruce MacLeod's offspring expressed interest in this. (Just brainstorming about this further:)

Thanks for the Ancestry.com seed / meme (replicating cultural unit:) a word newly coined by Richard Dawkins in 1976 (see too - https://twitter.com/RichardDawkins), who takes a very different approach to genetics and history, re his far-reaching evolutionary biological focus.

Have you seen Twitter feeds, or blogs (e.g. http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Gordon%20K.%20MacLeod%20MD) added to Ancestry.com - re family history documentation evidence?

Nice to be in touch about all of this :)

MacLeod cheers, Scott

Scott,

Regarding the wiki genealogy sites, I think I'll stick with Ancestry. I've invested a lot of time building the tree in Ancestry and switching to a new format, which I don't really care for, doesn't work for me now. But thanks for the suggestion!

I've looked at some of the twitter blogs and other links. I must be getting old - all the various links confuse the hell out of me! I find it too distracting.

When I was in Maine last week we did meet up with Gerry and Mary Lou for dinner at our place in Buxton. We had a great time! They are doing well. Sandy was tied up and couldn't make it.

I'm getting ready to send out a 'formal' invitation to the reunion. Stay tuned. The Facebook site is almost ready. We will have to find a good way to easily share photos, videos, family trees, etc.

Mark

Mark,

Thanks for your email once again. May let you know what I discover in brief with time differentially with WikiTree re Ancestry. Appreciating WikiTree's mission and developing interface, especially since it may eventually connect with Wikidata (Wikipedia's "back end" structured knowledge database in 300 languages, which WUaS is in too), like wiki World University and School will. Both have MediaWiki "front ends." Both Ancestry and WikiTree have a DNA focus too. And wiki makes possible a different kind of sharing of info and documents than Ancestry. And I'll learn family history in new ways differentially with a kind of comparative and conversation-between-the-two approach. Appreciating your focus on Ancestry.

I can see individual blog and Twitter posts as documents, and Ancestry I think stores document URLs as well as docements (eg PDFs, photos). It's when multiple blog posts share a common 'label' or when Twitter posts share a common #hashtag that the adding to an Ancestry gets confusing for me. I see both of these social media as awesome new document generators, creativity-wise too. And I see them too as pretty organized, just requiring following a theme when there are many of them, or many ideas in them/one. I'd like to add the GKM MD blog 'label' -
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Gordon%20K.%20MacLeod%20MD?m=0 -
for ex. but since these bkog posts aren't solely about my father, and thus could be confusing, it might be good to be able add specific post's URLs that are at first, and I haven't yet seen how to add just a URL as reference to a document in Ancestry yet.

Glad you had dinner with Gerry and Mary Lou. Please give them my warm greetings when you talk wuth/see them again next. Was very glad to see Sandy on Cuttyhunk if only briefly, - alas that he was tied up for dinner with all of you. (Am still seeking a partner and re beginning a family in these regards too ... attractiveness as partners grow together changes I imagine).

Have noted your upcoming MacLeod reunion in Buxton and looking forward to it very much, and related social media, if this works out schedule-wise et al. Appreciating too your expertise in Ancestry.

Warm regards,
Scott

Thanks particularly for the 'conversation,' in email, aspect of genealogy research. I find conversation - World Univ & Sch-wise too - especially generative re learning. Will try to bring this conversation further into Ancestry.com platform itself.

Mark,

Any indication or signs in documents, or re possible logical inferences, that James Edward McLeod could have spoken A) Scottish Gaelic, or B) Scots, in addition to C) English (per the PEI documents)?

The language angle is interesting to me - in Ancestry! What have you found with regards to French re your Mom's ancestry and Canada in Ancestry in these regards, if anything?

Collared kingfisher: Democratic Debates 1 & 2 * * * Hi @neha @PeterMcCormack what are your thoughts - re Central Banks of India and Bangladesh - and re a large 'field site' to test a single #cryptocurrency backed by 1-2 central banks in Bangladesh & India with #UBI experiments? (@mazumdarp, Sid & Harvard MD Prof Marti), UBI experiments would serve as a way to distribute a single cryptocurrency backed by many central banks


Hi M, 

How was your day? And how was the debate ? 

Methinks I'm leaning toward in this order - 

Andrew Yang - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Yang
Pete Buttigieg - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Buttigieg (and possibly as a running mate with Elizabeth Warren)


- after this 2nd Democratic Debate (2 - https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/democratic-debate-july-31-2019/index.html), and also think Joe Biden could be most likely to beat the current president, and is among the smartest and most accomplished. 

They're all really smart, but Biden is very smart as a politician, in my experience, and especially re image-making (which is a key point for Manuel Castells in the current book by him that I'm reading "Communication Power" and with which I agree; if elections are like horse races, per Castells too, I think Biden could most likely and masterfully win this one in 2020). I also appreciate his vast experience in the Obama administration as VP, closest to the office of the presidency of all these candidates. And I don't think he would waffle out over 4 or 8 years as I wondered about on Cuttyhunk with you and Peg. What do you think? He also knows the language of these debates, and these politics re presidential politics. And having been Obama's VP, I think he would successfully work against racism - and to "heal the racial divide" per a question I just heard in the debates. I agree too with Andrew Yang re both UBI and technology and re risk to jobs, and health care too, but I think the way he presents his ideas are as outliers, and too far from Biden's and many center. Andrew is also thinking about the future re information technology in more sensible ways than the rest of them. I like too Elizabeth Warren's re-framing re the big picture, and feistiness (reminding me a bit of Dad even). Hopefully the democratic candidate for president will synthesize the best of all of these idea generators. (These candidates are all pretty strong - time to narrow the field? Glad too we have so many candidates of color! Congratulations, America!:).

Now who will win the Democratic nomination? Probably none of the above ... 

I also hope any Dem president might develop a single cryptocurrency with block chain for all 7.5 billion people, and explore doing this with Universal Basic Income experiments in all ~200 countries -

Adrift by-the-wind sailor (Velella): Full house for Hamilton (musical) on a Wednesday afternoon Orpheum SF ... Color conscious cast * * * Could E.W. come to office in 2020 running policy-wise on a single cryptocurrency backed by some number of ~200 countries' central banks - and even Universal Basic Income experiments (on a BANK Card - as 'product,' - e.g. the 'debit cards' mentioned here "Will ‘basic income’ become the California norm? Stockton starts $500 no-strings payments" ... https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/article226280230.html - or for those who have them, on smart phones) - in the same way Alexander Hamilton started the U.S. banking system in the US, . And re Castells

 - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/04/adrift-by-wind-sailor-velella-full.html.

I found this evening's debate slightly more engaged than last evening's. 

Could be emailing this to Alden, Sandy, David T, John K, Pin M, and more friends, but may just blog it instead, and thus engage in a unique kind of "communication power" per Castells. :)

(And I'll be content in my own world with developing, as president, professor and founder, wiki MIT OCW-centric World University and School in ~200 countries and 7111 known living languages - potentially creating 2.2. million jobs (in the US and in all ~200 countries' languages, and re diversity as well) - and also my actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic project, bagpiping, and beginning a family).

What do you think now after the debates, M? Who do you think would be your current 'picks' as well?

L, Scott

Here are the two Democratic Debates' links from CNN which should have recordings of them soon - 






*
August 1, 2019 

M, 

And what did you think of the debates? Just noticed that Google Education's Brendan Chan is moving to Indiana to volunteer for the Buttigieg campaign - https://twitter.com/EduBrendan/status/1156928478844817410 - leading me to wonder about a new facet of these Presidential candidates' debates, i.e. how Google's IT, or social media, could be focused to help specific candidates.  Brendan was a World Univ & Sch contact at Google (where WUaS is in Google Education), and probably knows its infrastructure well. On his Twitter feed, he also seems to focusing this morning on Buttigieg image-making. Wondering if some Google folks are also volunteering for Elizabeth Warren's campaign. Would still lean toward a Warren - Buttigieg ticket, but think Biden is more masterful and potentially a better viable candidate to win in 2020 ... You? 

I also think that Warren as first woman president in the US would be great, and would be a further expression of the American dream. Methinks Elizabeth Warren would benefit from a further image-making focus; I think Biden is doing well in this sphere.  


L, Scott

Hi Neha, Peter, Pin (Sid), Marti, Janie, and the Mazumdars,

Thanks for your recent excellent interview on Bitcoin+, Peter and Neha - https://www.whatbitcoindid.com/podcast/bitcoin-security-and-ethics-with-neha-narula - https://twitter.com/neha/status/1152270084477468672 and https://twitter.com/PeterMcCormack/status/1149660711984877568.

I'm writing to introduce you to one another. Neha Narula is the director of the MIT DCI, Peter McCormack studies and is a journalist about BitCoin + and similar, Sid (Pin), and Sid's sister Marti (Maitreyi) is a Harvard Professor of Neurology http://www.childrenshospital.org/directory/physicians/m/maitreyi-mazumdar with a research focus on children and infants in Bangladesh (and her twin brother is in State Department Foreign Service Officer in Sri Lanka). The Mazumdar parents came from West Bengal in 1962 to study for Ph.D.s at Cornell. And Pin (Sid) is my best friend from high school, Shady Side Academy, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. (I'm also the founder and president of wiki CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric World University and School, and planned online in each of all ~200 countries' official languages as major online universities - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States - and with planned law schools, medical schools, online computer science departments, and planned too in each of all 7,111 known living languages - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages).

Nicobar pigeon: Am curious how Neha Narula and the MIT Digital Currency Initiative are thinking about and planning for testing and trying a single, potentially worldwide, digital currency with blockchain, backed by 1 or a few central banks, perhaps with Universal Basic Income experiments, in the 'field' - e.g. with PAPER MONEY and COINS, on SMART PHONES and on BANK CARDS. How would this play out in Bangladesh, Marti where you work medically (with Harvard Medicine), and where UBI experiments could be very very welcome, helpful and much needed, I wonder? ... and with regards to a realistic virtual earth too ... and potentially in California, with UBI experiments possibly at Harbin in a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs as well, building on the Stockton, California, Basic Income experiment with the state of California


re SINGLE #cryptocurrency backed by some # of ~200 countries' central banks & distributed via #UniversalBasicIncome experiments (state of CA's Stockton Basic Income exp?), that the idea of #RealisticVirtualEarth (Harbin too) for 7.5 billion avatar bots...http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/07/nicobar-pigeon-am-curious-how-neha.html ~

Hi Pin (Siddartha), Maitreyi and All, 

Just back in Canyon, California 94516, after leaving Cuttyhunk island, MA 02713, yesterday. And I just added this last email I sent ...


Hi Pin, Marti, and All,

India actually has 36 states/territories I just learned, according to Wikipedia  - "India is a federal union comprising 29 states and 7 union territories, for a total of 36 entities" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/States_and_union_territories_of_India ...

Blogged a little about all this here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/07/north-sentinel-island-india-with-regard.html?m=0 ...

Marti and Pin, it seems like West Bengal, Bangladesh and India could be a great field site for a single cryptocurrency backed by one central bank ...

... with Universal Basic Income experiments. What would MIT Digital Currency Initiative Director Neha Narula think of this?

Warm regards,
Scotty

... to this related blog post from Thursday July 25, 2019 ... http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/07/north-sentinel-island-india-with-regard.html ... as well as the 'field site' label.

Am curious how Neha Narula and the MIT DCI are thinking about and planning for testing and trying a single, potentially worldwide, digital currency with blockchain, backed by 1 or a few central banks, perhaps with Universal Basic Income experiments, in the 'field' - e.g. with paper money and coins, on smart phones and on bank cards. How would this play out in Bangladesh, Marti where you work medically (with Harvard Medicine), and where UBI experiments could be very very welcome, helpful and much needed, I wonder?

Warm regards, Scott

... and with regards to a realistic virtual earth too ... and potentially in California, with UBI experiments possibly at Harbin in a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs as well, building on the Stockton, California, Basic Income experiment with the state of California.

Hi Pin, and All, 

Brainstorming-wise, I think re a single cryptocurrency backed by some number of ~200 countries' central banks, and distributed potentially via Universal Basic Income experiments (think the Stockton, CA, Basic Income experiment - significantly with the state of California), that the idea of a realistic virtual earth (Harbin too) with 7.5 billion avatar bots representing all living people (for medicine, tele-robotic surgery and electronic health records too, Marti), where an estimated 4 billion people don't have physical addresses (re UBI experiments, for ex.), would be as a kind of avatar bot addressing system, and for planning purposes. 

Have blogged further about this here today as well - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/07/nicobar-pigeon-am-curious-how-neha.html.

Cheers, Scott

5:25 PM EDT

Dear M, 

Hi from Boston's Logan Airport ... smooth trip from Cuttyhunk to Padanarum, and nice to travel over the water with Seth, Russell, Dianna, her husband, and baby Oliver, and then the taxi ride to Airport also went well with interesting conversation too. Arriving early to the Airport, the 5:06 pm flight to Oakland has been delayed a little bit twice, but will soon board for return to California. 
 
So nice to see you and to visit in recent days.

Am exploring whether the main Penikese house could be considered the last hippy house in the Cuttyhunk-Penikese 'axis' here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/07/common-yellowthroat-upcoming-book-to.html (with now 124 blog posts in the "Cuttyhunk" label - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Cuttyhunk - some about a kind of Cuttyhunk 'vision':). Are you both docenting at the Historical Society this summer, Ma & Peg?

Looks like another Wikidata Affinity Group about online libraries and World Univ & Sch's Library Resources - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Library_Resources (planned in ~200 countries' official / main languages) - is meeting in Zoom video conference, with Stanford Librarian Hilary Thorsen chairing it, is meeting tomorrow morning 9am Pacific Time. Glad to be in this ongoing conversation. 

Very nice to see you, Sandy, especially! 


Happy Cuttyhunk :) and Love, Scott

P.S.
Liking the working title of my upcoming 4th book (3rd of poetry!:):

Dear Byron and Cindy, and All, 

Am having a Garden Party on Saturday afternoon August 10th around 5 pm on my porch in Canyon in honor of summer - it may be a baby shower too. Potluck. We’ll have tea and veggies - hopefully from my garden in a box! Please come and partake in some yummies. (And, everyone, put your musical instruments in the car .... have invited too some SCD musicians ... who may bring pink and blue Scottish Country Dance sheet music books ... perhaps some of us can explore playing some of these tunes slowly and creatively and in an improvisational way even! Dancing allowed... if we find our way to music-making!)

Greetings from Cuttyhunk island, MA! :) And thanks for your RSVPs thus far!

Take care,
Scott

Dear Scott,

Ellen and I will be hosting a Curriculum Study Commission meeting on that day. We’ll be devoting the bulk of the meeting to addressing final details for the 10/4/19-10/6/19 English Language Arts Conference on the Asilomar Conference Grounds—our 68th consecutive meeting in this venue.

We may still have enough umph at the end of the day to drive north to Canyon, but I can’t say for sure.

If you can tolerate a degree of uncertainty about our attendance, that’s the way I’d like to leave things at this point.

Thanks for your understanding.

My very best,
Jonathan

Thanks for the invite Scott.  Still working on my back.  Researching neurosurgeons as two cortisone epidurals have not worked.  This all takes time - if I do go ahead with it, it will be microsurgery that’s said to be highly successful - still checking out details. Sorry I neglected to reply to your kind offer of yoga book loan.  It’s been a hectic time for me.  Probably not ready for music and dance party on 8/10 yet though it sounds like fun.  My b/day is 8/8 so would have been perfect with some cake!  Enjoy!

Happy upcoming birthday, Barbara!

May I bring a little cake or some cupcakes or similar by on your birthday for a celebration at your place?

Hmmm .... other approaches to back challenges with successful outcomes? By way of comparison, my right ear eustachian tube dysfunction seems to be changing and developing but is still manageable. Yoga sitting and releasing and forward bending in half lotus mornings daily has some benefits, as do shoulderstands some afternoons. Headstands possibly ... all as movement therapies, with benefits of exercise to the bodymind as a whole as well. Angela's email response (after I was in her course in Berkeley in 2017) to my ETD dysfunction is below, which might be edifying re your ongoing back condition too.

Happy upcoming birthday! A wee celebration with sweet cake chez toi? :)

Hi Scottie in the fab.kilt!

it was so fine to see you in Namaste this weekend and you added some colour and fun to the class!

I just got you email this morning.   I was hacked some years ago and lost everything so have a new address but am not much into social emails so best to just connect with Victor as you have been doing!

Re my EUSTACHIAN TUBE DYSFUNCTION question ...

I suffer also from ringing In the ears....sometimes it is almost deafening but anything to relax tension around the shoulders and neck eases it a bit.

For me it is never the Asana but how I can release and undo tension from inside... 
Computer work inevitably tightens us up in these areas.

I use my fingers and thumbs when lying down to get into the really tight 'ropes' on either side of my neck....great to do it in bet as then I fall way to sleep beautifully!
Staying away whenever possible from loud and mechanical noises, listening to water...ocean waves, rivers, rain, wind in the trees , birdsong...all soothing to the ears.

I guess we have to live with these problems but softening and becoming more receptive is the best help.

Finding a mate is not up to us.  When we are truly ready to be open and loving with ourselves and NO Expectations for others.....just to honour and accept them as they are...there is a chance that something wonderful appears

Expectations will ruin any relationship.  gratitude and love is the best medicine

Lots of love
Angela!

Thanks Scott for the good wishes and your thoughts re healing.  I read Angela’s message to you also.  All good ideas and suggestions.   I’ve been working a long while on alternative healing ways for my back.  I promised I would research the surgery option as it comes highly recommended for my situation (piece of broken off disc sitting on the root nerve at L5) so am doing that now.   It would be microsurgery to merely remove the the piece of disc - no complicated fusion or other spine changes. Of course, if there’s a non-surgery way, I would prefer it!

I’m currently on a gluten-free diet (in addition to my meat, fish and egg-free regular diet).  Am also trying to avoid refined sugar as that also increases inflammation.  So probably cake would not work right now, but that was a kind offer!  I have a new acupuncturist who recommended the gluten-free approach to reducing inflammation (esp in my back!).  Have been doing it a couple of months now.  I am healing but it’s not for sure the microdisc piece will resorb.  Hence the surgery option.  I really want to get back to laying the fiddle!

I hope you are enjoying your time in MA.

CA greetings!
Barbara

Hi Barbara,

Thanks for your nice email, and best wishes in your healing process. (Am an appreciator of knowledge-based allopathic medical approaches when they can knowledgeably help ...eg Stanford Harvard MDs idea for 3rd and 4th 2nd opinions - and eg my friend David T went ro Mass Eye and Ear with his ear balance condition Meniere's disease and had a successful!operation and MA paid for it, ... but when not viable, and when one's in pain ... one searches for solutions ... and I attempt to keep my noninterventionist allopathic medicine skepticism active for self preservation, and to avoid errors to my body ... so all the best in your ongoing search for a therapy that works (would a MD for smarts, knowledge training skill etc do the microsurgery hypothetically? ) ... my own Yoga training and A/V conversation are helpful re my own healing (and am not actively teaching Yoga too these days) and re asana movement therapies (re Dona's Yoga books)  ... so best wishes with your search

Savory gluten-free  birthday cakelets?  LET's explore this possibility after I return to Bay on 7/30. :) Happy upcoming birthday !

Warm regard,
Scott
