Their mission is to explore and understand cyberspace, its development, dynamics, norms, standards, and need or lack thereof for laws and sanctions. They are a research center, premised on the observation that what we seek to learn is not already recorded. Their method is to build out into cyberspace, record data as we go, self-study, and publish. Their mode is entrepreneurial nonprofit.

We'll discuss how to maintain and grow this resource in the future.

![]() ![]() The Center for Urban Agriculture at Fairview Gardens is a California non-profit organization that was established in 1997 to preserve and operate Fairview Gardens. Founded in 1895, the historic Fairview Gardens is considered by some to be the oldest organic farm in southern California, and is now preserved in perpetuity through an agricultural conservation easement. The Center's mission is to preserve the agricultural heritage of this 100-year-old farm; provide the local community with fresh, chemical-free fruits and vegetables; demonstrate the economic viability of sustainable agricultural methods for small farm operations; research and interpret the connections between food, land, and community well being; and nurture the human spirit through educational programs and public outreach both on and off the farm. Fairview Gardens offers a "hands on" apprenticeship program, in which apprentices work side-by-side with our field and marketing staff to learn the art and craft of farming through direct experience and observation. Apprentices are encouraged to keep a journal of their observations and questions and meet regularly with the farm management staff for more formal instruction and guidance. The classes, workshops and other educational programs offered at the farm are available to apprentices at no charge. While the demands of the farm are our first priority, we direct apprentices towards materials, projects, and visits that can round out their experience here. Certified Organic by Guaranteed Organic Certification Agency, 760-731-0496 "It maybe when we no longer know what to do, We have come to our real work, And that when we no longer know which way to go, We have begun our real journey." --Wendell Berry, philosopher, poet, essayist, farmer, novelist, and social activist.

![]() ![]() Narrator: Orson Wells | Parable: Warren H. Schmidt Writer: Sam Weiss| Screenplay: Joseph Cavella From Human Beings to Human Civilzation, a Complexity Profile ![]() "A schematic history of human civilization reflects a growing complexity of the collective behavior of human organizations. The internal structure of organizations changed from the large branching ratio hierarchies of ancient civilizations, through decreasing branching ratios of massive hierarchical bureaucracies, to hybrid systems where lateral connections appear to be more important than the hierarchy. As the importance of lateral interactions increases, the boundaries between subsystems become porous. The increasing collective complexity also is manifest in the increaseing specialization and diversity of professions. Among the possible future organizational structures are fully networked systems where hierarchical structures are unimportant." - The New England Complex Systems Institute (NECSI) by Yaneer Bar-Yam Wednesday, August 09, 2006 - 09:08 PM

![]() ![]() •Well Known Techies Switching from Mac to Ubuntu (kairosnews) • Switch to Ubuntu (apress) Ubuntu is a free, open source operating system that starts with the breadth of Debian and adds regular releases (every six months), a clear focus on the user and usability (it should "Just Work", TM) and a commitment to security updates with 18 months of support for every release. Ubuntu ships with the latest Gnome release as well as a selection of server and desktop software that makes for a comfortable desktop experience off a single installation CD. WIKI The following list covers some of the software components included as part of version 6.06 of the Ubuntu Desktop. Much of it (such as GIMP, OpenOffice.org and Firefox) is considered standard software for the free desktop (see Examples of Free Software). * GNOME desktop environment and accessories * Gedit text editor * GIMP image editor * Firefox web browser * Gaim instant messenger * Evolution email and personal information manager (PIM) * OpenOffice.org office suite * Synaptic software package manager * Totem movie player * Rhythmbox music player Most other free software can be obtained from the package repositories through Synaptic or the simplified Add/Remove Programs utility. Edubuntu is a GNU/Linux distribution designed for use in classrooms, it's also Free in the sense of giving you rights of Software Freedom. Edubuntu has been developed in collaboration with teachers and technologists in multiple nations worldwide. The primary goal of Edubuntu is for an educator with limited technical knowledge and skill to be able to set up a computer lab, or establish an on-line learning environment, in an hour or less, and then administer that environment without having to have much knowledge on the subject. |
