My name is James, I am 21 years old, and I am currently 6'1, 205lbs. I have been lifting weights for about 4 years now but didn't get serious until a couple of years ago. At the age of 17 I was 160lbs. and very weak. After some motivation from seeing friends getting bigger and stronger, I decided to make a move. I work out with my dad in his home gym which is very nice with a lot of room and equipment. In October 2008 I was up to 200lbs. and then cut back down to 185lbs. I felt small as hell so I semi-cleanly bulked back up to 205lbs. where I am now. My plan is to bulk to 230lbs. and then cut again.
My diet is pretty clean with a few cheat meals here and there. It consists mainly of chicken, eggs, ham, turkey, red meat, fish, wheat bread, rice, oatmeal, bananas, apples, berries, broccoli, green beans, mixed veggies, milk, peanut butter, protein shakes, protein bars, mixed nuts, etc, etc. I am constantly eating every few hours trying to take in my needed calories. My objective is to bulk clean this time aiming for a .75-1.5lb gain per week.
I change my routine every 3-4 weeks depending on how I feel my strength gains are going. Here is my current routine:
Day 1: Chest/Bi's/Abs
Day 2: Legs/Calves
Day 3: OFF
Day 4: Back/Tri's/Abs
Day 5: Shoulders/Legs/Calves
Day 6: OFF
Day 7: Reapeat
Any comments or critiques along the way will be greatly appreciated. I will post pictures whenever I get a chance. May be a while...

opn 1.0.9
This library is called opn. It will simply output the name of the class. Optionally, you can assign another namespace to report with. For an explanation, just look at the few examples under the test/ directory. Why did I write it? I wrote many different ruby classes, and sometimes they will report information to me, but I don't know which file wrote this. So I wanted to simply have output prefaced with the name of the class in question, optionally to be colourized as well, since that helps me on the commandline. Version 1.0.2 now has a proper module, called Opn, and Opn has only one method called opn(). If you have specific suggestions to make this gem more useful for others, please drop me an email at: email@example.com Thank you.

text: In a way the suit is a great move. Realistically a suit to prevent the sale of the book based on its content would have no chance to succeed. The first amendment hurdles would never get publication prevented. I believe the Pentagon Papers case saw to that. However, if the profits can be seized, then the publisher loses any motivation to put out the book. It's a long shot but an interesting legal idea.

Whoever invented Elizabeth Mitchell should get a medal, because they did a good, good thing. We just caught up with the adorable Ms. Mitchell for a quick debrief on Juliet's demise last night on Lost, and we learned why that agonizing death scene is not the last we'll see of the good Dr. Burke after all.
Read on for our interview, where Elizabeth confirms your fan theories about what Juliet knew at the end and why, plus how she and Josh Holloway fell for each other as friends offscreen while their characters were in love onscreen, and whom she thinks Sawyer should be with in the end...
How did you feel about Juliet being in so much pain for so long—first the finale and now this—and you not being able to talk about it at all for months?
I feel really bad for Juliet all the time. I feel like, you know, karmically, maybe she's due, because when she was a prisoner, instead of being morally upright, she was Ben's (Michael Emerson) little henchman. But oh, she really has redeemed herself, so I feel like she's deserving of a lovely end. We'll see what happens. We've got another reality going on, and I'm sure she's probably tortured herself in that one, too, but hopefully in that reality we will get to see her happy and vibrant and excited. That to me, would be fun.
What do you think of the fan theory that Juliet was talking about a coffee date and knew that the bomb worked because she was flashing to another timeline where she was with Sawyer?
That's what I keep thinking! And I keep thinking that's why she wasn't so sad about it. She was sad for him. My feeling is she was already in a different place that was a lot happier—maybe she was in heaven, I don't know! But I like to think that she was in another place after the bomb went off—however it was that reality split—and for some reason, because she was dying, she was able to see both worlds. However, that's my own nerdy thoughts and ideas. They haven't told me a darn thing. They're gonna send me scripts in like a week or two. I will know more.
So you will be back on Lost one more time. Yay! Are you able to say exactly what episode?
I'm not entirely sure that they want me to say, but I know it's toward the end. I wish I could tell you, you know I wish I could.
What was it like working with Josh Holloway again?
I love working with Josh. He and I came completely full circle. When we first started working together we were both like, Huh. There was no chemistry and no nothing. But because both of our characters were so happy together, we just started connecting.
And now you know he plays the guitar beautifully, he brings music in, and we sit there and we sing together, and it's really fun and I enjoy him so much. And he's a new dad and so happy and so flushed with that great love and all of that stuff. I just find him to be so much fun. I enjoyed working with him. I didn't mind lying in his arms.
And being kissed by Josh Holloway? Not the worst thing in the world, I have to say, even if you are dying. Evangeline Lilly had told me he has lovely lips, and I thought, I'm sure that's true. But then he kissed me, and I thought, Well, he does! But really there's not one person who hasn't said he has lovely lips—obviously they're plain to see.
But I went home, because my husband also has lovely lips, and I go, "Josh Holloway has lovely lips!" and he goes, "How nice for you." [Laughs.] I am always surrounded by beautiful men, always, always, always. It's really funny to me that I'm married and I'm actually quite happy and I'm always surrounded by some of the most beautiful men you can imagine, but I think I do a remarkable job shouldering that burden. [Laughs.]
Who else did you get to see in Hawaii?
I saw my sweet Evangeline, whom I love. She is a truly, truly exceptional person, in every possible way you could be an exceptional person. And I think I saw Matthew Fox; and Jorge Garcia came by to say hi.
We should get you and Evie one great last scene together.
I would really love that! Evie and I have talked about that—how wonderful it would be to have them just...you know how sometimes after a party you'll just sit down and go over how the party was? "So, how are you here? Really?" "Yeah, I couldn't stand you!" "I couldn't stand you either!" [Laughs.] That'd be great! Kate and Juliet get drunk and have a complete compare and contrast.
Do you harbor any fantasies in your head about how you'd like things to go for Juliet in the end?
I always wanted to see a couple of things for Juliet. I wanted to see her reunite with her sister (Robin Weigert) and her sister's child, which she made possible—because that really is her only family left—and I always said that I wanted to see her end up with Jack because I always thought that they had such interesting and intricate chemistry. But after everything with Josh and playing everything with James and Juliet and how peaceful and happy they were, there's nothing really wrong with that—it wouldn't so bad: the con artist and scientist. I think it would be great.
Do you think we might still get a scene between you and Robin Weigert, or is the show barreling toward a conclusion too quickly?
It is definitely hurtling toward a conclusion, but it would be wonderful if there were [such a scene], because so much of what Juliet did that was considered fairly evil was done for her sister. I would love to see that, because that's where she went morally wrong was when she was trying to save her sister's life and make that OK.
Given how great things were with James/Josh for that stretch there in season five, would you be disappointed if Sawyer ended up with Kate?
No, I've always said that Sawyer should end up with Kate, because I think you can't buy chemistry like that. You either have it or you don't! As far as the happiness of the character, if we're just talking about getting slammed up against a tree trunk, I go with Jack for Juliet, but if you're talking about longevity and happiness, then I'm talking about James for Juliet.
At the Lost wrap party, Damon and Carlton need to give you and Evie special awards for putting up with all these love triangle questions and having to be so political all these years!
I get asked so many times, "Who's a better kisser? Who's a better this or that?" and honestly, it's so subjective—you feel one way from one day to the next—you can't quantify, it's a kiss! It's on camera, in front of 20 people! But Josh does have nice lips, that has to be said.
Could she be any more awesome? No, no, she could not, because she's already the best. Share your E. Mitchell love and alt-timeline theories for Juliet in the comments.

RATINGS: 131 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.72 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 300 ABV: 10%
The character pictured on the front of this label is Jonathan Holmberg. Jonathan has been a bartender at what now is Jackie Os for the past 15 years. In 2004 he helped me get my foot in the door and has been a dear friend ever since. Jonathan is a true eccentric and this beer is nothing short of that. Our robust porter was placed into Cabernet barrels eight months ago. Wild yeast and Lactobacillus were added to the barrels to give the beer a tart edge and some very rustic and fruity qualities. Sixty pounds of tart cherries were added to each barrel to take this beer in a unique direction. Notes of cherries, oak, chocolate, wine, and leather all find a special spot in this brew. Cab Cherry Man is a beer that can stand up to the antiquing, joking, halloween-loving, and sweet personality that is Jonathans. Cheers, buddy! -Brad Clark, brewer

His car, a lightly used Lincoln, was riddled with bullet holes.
He'd taken the bullet low in the spine, and he'd not have another erection in this life.
Talking stuff is one thing but firing a bullet at a man who has been trained to shoot back is another.
1550s, from Middle French boulette "cannonball, small ball," diminutive of boule "a ball" (13c.), from Latin bulla "round thing, knob" (see bull (n.2)). Earliest version of bite the bullet recorded 1891, probably with a sense of giving someone a soft lead bullet to clench in the teeth during a painful operation.

Keep it simple, keep it real
The most important women in my life truly exhibited the qualities of being exemplary ladies. Therefore, I want someone who understands that I need to be treated as such. However, I also understand my role as his help mate. No gimmicks, no hidden agendas. My ideal mate understands the importance of communication and honesty. He encourages me to live out my dreams and I will do the same for him. We are truly a team, a winning team. Initially I am quiet, but once I find my comfort zone I can be quite talkative. Life is so stressful so a sense of humor is a must. You gotta laugh to keep things light. I just recently joined a dance studio and I am very excited about doing something for myself that will allow me to express myself and get fit as well. I enjoy traveling and very soon I anticipate taking my first trip aboard with my son. Warmth and sunshine is paramount for now. Just when I think I have adjusted to the Chicago weather, it changes!!! I'm relatively new to the area and I thought this would be a great way to make friends or possibly meet someone special. Although I have done some exploring on my own, I am really looking forward to seeing all that Chicago has to offer.

I am relatively new to the area so I don't have a favorite spot yet. I am looking for a great place for brunch, any suggestions?
University of Memphis, Memphis, TN
My favorite movie is "The Color Purple" because it was about women finding themselves as well as empowering themselves. I prefer oldies as far as music is concerned, R&B. Most of the newer music is a bit harsh for my taste.
I enjoy going to the movies, traveling, museums, shopping, and performing arts. I also enjoy simple things like bike riding, a quiet walk, or a picnic lunch. It doesn't always have to be extravagant.

Latest News
Government spending and debt are ballooning to dangerous and unprecedented levels. Using the most reliable data available, the Government Cost Calculator estimates that the current U.S. national debt of more than $16 trillion will reach $23 trillion dollars by the year 2019. This year alone, Americans can expect federal spending of $3.6 trillion with up to $1 trillion of that spending financed by debt.
The Government Cost Calculator is a unique service from The Independent Institute that enables any American to clearly understand three aspects of federal government spending. First, the Calculator helps you determine how much you will pay for various federal programs now and over the course of a lifetime. Second, it compares those tax payments to the forgone earnings that would have been possible if such funds were kept and invested in private, market accounts. Finally, the Calculator enables you to see the difference between government expenditures and your tax payments, clearly illustrating the growing debt obligations you face in the future.
Free MyGovCost App!
Available in the Apple App Store for the iPhone and iPad, the free MyGovCost Mobile App features the Government Cost Calculator as well as other content from The Independent Institute such as articles, news, and videos.

The next step in the process, Alderman Tony Thomas said, will be for Comcast to deliver its report to City Manager Rochelle Small-Toney explaining how the cable and Internet provider will improve services.

The mood at Ctiy Hall on Thursday was noticeably different.
After months of tension and questions about city management, council members and visitors at City Hall noticed the same thing: a relaxation, even a light-heartedness that had been lacking.
"It's like a weight has been lifted off the shoulders of employees in this entire organization," Mayor Pro Tem Van Johnson said. "They're almost giddy."
Council members, who no longer had to struggle over a vote on whether to replace the city manager, were more at ease, too.

The anticipated discussion of City Manager Rochelle Small-Toney's travel expenses is generating plenty of discussion, but some other business at Thursday's meeting is pretty significant, too.
Council in morning workshop is set to discuss proposed changes to the animal control/vicious dog ordinance. This comes on the heels of the June 2011 attack of then-7-year-old Javon Roberson, who was brutally attacked by pit bull dogs at Treat Park.
The city for months has been poised to approve the next phase of a study for a cruise terminal.

I would like to know the simplest code for polling a property's value, to execute the code in its getter.
Currently I'm using:
instance.property.ToString();, but I'd rather have something without possible side-effects or unnecessary overhead.
I would like to know the simplest code for polling a property's value, to execute the code in its getter.
(I'm assuming you're trying to avoid the warning you get from simply assigning the value to an unused variable.)
You could write a no-op extension method:
Then call:
That won't box the value or touch it at all - just call the getter. Another advantage of this over
It will require JIT compilation of the method once per value type, but that's a pretty small cost...
That sounds to me like a really terrible idea. Honestly, if you have logic in a getter that needs to be executed regularly, take it out of the getter and stick it in a method. I would hate to jump in and maintain code like that, and once I finally figured out why it was doing what it does I would refactor it.
I would extract the code in the getter to a function and call the function both, from the getter and from your poller, if this is an option for you.
Capturing it in a variable is the best way - doesn't cause any side-effects unless the getter itself causes side-effects.
I hope i understand that correct. First of all
The ToString() does not necessarily return the value, for primitives this is the case, yes, but for other more complex classes it is usually only the full qualified name. And i guess this is not what you want.
To execute the getter, you need some reflection.
I like Jon Skeet's answer, but along the same vein, this would also work without having to write an extension method:
I think that you need to move the code to some where else. So try setting the global var in the constructor of your 'instance' object.
OR.. (not sure what you mean by global variable) but if it is in a object, then you could just get the getter of the property on you global object to do a lazy load and get the value then.
(but you probably dont have access to the 'instance' there)
Even though it's probably still a bad idea, I just want to leave this concise lambda solution:

City Council considers new sewer and water fees
People planning to build in Ingleside soon could see more than $2,000 worth of fees for sewer and water use while development is under way, according to a proposed plan presented to the City Council.
City Engineer John Michael Naismith presented a capital improvement plan Tuesday that would charge developers $775 for water usage and $1,274 for sewer usage.
The fee would be included in the building permit, as a way to help offset the cost the city pays for sewer and water while new development is being done, Naismith said. The plan must be reviewed at least every five years, Naismith added.

High inequality, low integration – two sides of the same coin?
Filed under: Politics, Public policy, The RSA
Today sees the second report of the Social Integration Commission, which I chair. It has been published on the same day as the 2014 State of the Nation report of the Social Mobility Commission and there are important overlaps between the reports: Inequality and segregation go together and fuel each other…….
The Social Integration Commission's first report – which received extensive coverage earlier this year – revealed the degree of poor integration which persists alongside the growing diversity of the British population. We highlighted that a lack of integration is an issue for all groups. White Britons are as likely to have unrepresentative social networks as people from other ethnic backgrounds, and Londoners' networks are amongst the furthest away from reflecting the make-up of the communities in which they live.
We also found that one of the most significant areas of poor integration is between people from different social classes. This lack of integration has important and worrying implications for cohesion and economic inclusion.
It is poignant that the Commission's second report is published on the same day as Alan Milburn's damning assessment of the UK's faltering anti-poverty strategy. Our willingness to tolerate poverty and the diminished life chances of poorer citizens is surely not unrelated to the lack of interaction and friendship between our social elite and the disadvantaged. Indeed there is international evidence that inequality levels and mean policies towards the poor go hand in hand with levels of prejudice. The more we think of the disadvantaged as different people to ourselves the less sympathy we have for them and the less support we are liable to give to measures to tackle exclusion.
Milburn's report makes a number of powerful recommendations, but as I pointed out in my 2011 annual lecture the philosophical and political arguments for greater social justice need to be underpinned by a culture of empathy for those different to ourselves.
Today's Social Integration Commission's report provides evidence of the consequences and costs of poor integration for individuals and society. The figures we give in relation to employment, recruitment and career progression, and community health and well-being are estimates; however, using the most robust methodology available and erring on the side of caution, the evidence suggests an overall financial cost to the UK of approximately 0.5 per cent of GDP.
Equally importantly, the report contains important new research showing that people gain from better integration and that the small steps taken to help people mix lead to significant benefits in the future.
UK society is a tolerant society that has coped pretty well with some of the potential tensions of increasing diversity; despite some of headlines we have garnered this morning, it is not the Commission's intention to spread doom and gloom or to be alarmist. I would summarise our argument as follows: tolerance is not enough, but it need not be hard to do more. Exactly what that 'do more' might involve will be the focus of our final report.
Our final recommendations will focus not only, or even mainly, on the role of government but on the things that other sectors, agencies, communities and individuals can do to make sure that the UK's trajectory towards better integration more closely matches its trajectory towards greater diversity.
In all these debates we should ask what we can do ourselves. Of course, a great deal of the RSA's research and development seeks to address aspects on social justice, but as CEO of an organisation with a funding model which relies on Fellows who can afford to make an annual donation I am acutely aware that the Society is just the kind of place to which recommendations from the Social Integration Commission's final report will be addressed. Fortunately we have at least one bit of good practice to celebrate.
I was in Wales on Saturday for the RSA. It was positive event with a very impressive range of Fellows in attendance. Part of what made it good was the role played by two young people recruited as part of the RSA's Centenary Young Fellows appeal. I hope we can build on the success of CYF to open up a continuous route for younger people to the Fellowship and that we can also explore how we might use other mechanisms to increase the Fellowship's diversity.
It is also vital to recognise that even if our annual donation and joining criteria are somewhat restrictive that doesn't mean we can't engage a more diverse group of non-Fellows as partners in our work, as many of our best regions and networks already do.
The nature of the present crisis
Filed under: Politics, Public policy, The RSA
As my colleague Adam Lent has argued, whether the result is disaster or near death experience for the UK the way the Scottish referendum campaign has unfolded is the most powerful indication yet of the enfeeblement of the Westminster political elite. Other consequential possibilities for humiliation loom large, including a strong showing for UKIP at the next General Election and a vote to leave the European Union. Whatever the virtues of Scottish independence, Mr Farage and national sovereignty there is no doubt each cause benefits hugely from our loss of faith in an establishment which has in one form or another held sway since the emergence of modern Parliamentary democracy in the mid nineteenth century.
People are angry about other people, about their own lives and about the state of their country. After first blaming each other the politicians promise to address the causes of our anger but virtually no one – including, one strongly suspects, themselves – believes a word of it. It is human to focus on the personalities but vital that we interpret the legitimacy crisis as more than a unfortunate coming together of events and poor leadership.
Think of it this way. For the overwhelming majority of human beings for nearly all of our evolution from nomads to particle physicists three conditions applied. First, we only knew much about, or engaged with, people much like ourselves. Those unlike us were assumed to be enemies or curiosities. Second, we lived under conditions of scarcity with relatively simple material expectations and needs. Third, we accepted and generally deferred to relatively fixed hierarchies of power and prestige based on religion, bloodline or more latterly class.
Since the Enlightenment, with occasional backtracks and by-ways, the West has been accelerating ever faster away from the conditions in which our social character and deep culture developed. Things cannot be reversed. Nor should they be because the progressive future involves transcending these conditions to reach a higher stage of human flourishing. This is the stage of cosmopolitan citizens inhabiting a cosmopolitan world. It is stage in which individual aspiration is focussed on the things that make life most enjoyable and fulfilling; friendship, generosity, autonomy, creativity. This is the stage where we govern ourselves identifying, discussing and solving problems together naturally and continuously in ways in which we only now occasionally do in the very best or very worst of circumstances.
But we now inhabit a disorientating and dark twilight world. Forced to live among strangers and in a shrinking world but not knowing how to understand, empathise and collaborate with those different to ourselves. Obsessed with an individualistic and materialistic account of success and achievement and then either finding it we can't attain it or – almost as bad – that it is meaningless when we do. Unwilling to be governed but not yet willing or able to govern ourselves.
(Note that that each of these transitions concerns broadly one of the three main forms of social power; respectively solidarity, individual aspiration and authority. Each of the three cylinders which pump the engine of progress is cracked. This is why rich, technologically advanced, reasonably well educated societies seem unable to solve many of their biggest challenges; for example, tackling inequality, responding to population ageing, facing up to climate change.)
If this all seems too big and too abstract it can be brought back to topical concerns. The first painful transition from tribalism to cosmopolitanism is reflected in wars of religion and identity, the upsurge of anti-immigrant feeling or the inability of international governance to cope with international problems. The second, from scarcity to post materialism, is reflected in rage about living standards, in massive personal debt and in the various ailments of affluence. And the third, from tradition and deference to self-government in our current contempt for our leaders, only surpassed by the incoherence of our collective aspirations (as Ben Page from IPSOS Mori famously put it 'the British people know what they want. It is very clear: American tax rates and Swedish public services').
Thus the immediate crisis is a shallow and dispiriting manifestation of a shift which is more profound and difficult but which, hard though it is to believe, contains the possibility of a leap forward for humanity. Of course, huge generalisations are involved in this chronology: the future is already out there and the past clings on like burnt fat on a frying pan.
What then is to be done? First, progressives – however critical they are of the present – must never forget their belief in progress. Whilst the big picture still leaves lots of scope for debate about what to do next, we must keep always in view the vision of the cosmopolitan, post materialist, self-governing future. Indeed we should work harder to describe a practical utopia; what such a world might look and feel like.
Second, while the steps to transition will, in the main, be taken by us not for us, right now we need leadership like rarely before: Leaders who can confront us with the truth of the current crisis and inspire us with the possibility of transformative progress. Instead we have futile and dishonest promises to slash immigration, to extricate ourselves from global interdependency, cut taxes or energy bills, restore trust to politics by electing this career politician in hoc to his increasingly unrepresentative party not that career politician in hoc to his increasingly unrepresentative party. The sight of the Clegg, Miliband and Cameron postponing their enmities, defying convention and marching on Scotland shows both that it is possible to act differently and that it takes an emergency for political leaders to accept the need to question their stock responses.
When we as individuals face personal crisis, our first response may be to do differently but our eventual realisation may be the need to be differently. Trapped by our decaying democratic systems and the disastrous idea that politics is analogous to retail consumerism, our political elite run in circles trying to discover what they can do to address our rage. Instead we must encourage them to link social transformation to personal transformation by questioning deeply the very idea of what it is to be a leader – a creative leader – in these troubled times.
'Creative communities with a cause'
Filed under: The RSA
I have been trying to use my preferred way of thinking about human motivation and social power to develop the RSA's emerging world-view, 'The Power to Create'. In this regard I am grateful for an idea given to me by public intellectual and social innovator Charles Leadbeater (who will be speaking soon at the RSA about his new book 'The frugal innovator'.
Charlie tells me that from his own direct observations he has come to the conclusion that the most innovative and successful organisations are 'creative communities with a cause'. The potential synergy between my simplified application of cultural theory and the goal of greater creative capacity is obvious (well, to me, at least): Broadly, the three 'c's in Charlie's phrase line up respectively with the three sources of social power in my account; the individualistic (creative), the solidaristic (communities) and the hierarchical (cause).
A concern with The Power to Create has been its lack of ethical substance; looking out on the inequalities and wastefulness of modern society the question asked is 'whose power to create what?' A focus on the role of human drives in the effectiveness of organisations, people and places doesn't solve this problem, but it might help.
Going in reverse order, consider the critical polarities for each drive:
The production and maintenance of rationality is often the role assumed by leaders and the hierarchical systems over which they preside. But in his study of bureaucracies (of which he was generally a fan), Max Weber made the powerful distinction between substantive rationality (directed at ends/outcomes/values) and procedural rationality (directed at means/procedures/rules). Organisations are established to pursue substantive rationality but over time, as they become institutionalised, procedural rationality often starts to dominate.
By the idea of 'cause' Charlie's description of the most effective organisations implies leaders who maintain a focus on substantive (value) based rationality rather than procedural (process based) rationality. Interestingly, there is growing emphasis in debates about corporate responsibility of the ideal of purpose driven organisations.
People on the left often assume that solidarity is their kind of thing. But this human drive – based on shared norms, identity and values – is characteristic of racist populism as well as workers' cooperatives. The key polarity here may be between 'solidarity for' and 'solidarity against', both in term of identity (an expansive versus an exclusive bond) and mobilisation (cooperation to develop solutions versus cooperation simply to mobilise protest).
The context in which Charlie uses the word 'community' implies an expansive idea based on a constructive activity.
The Power to Create is an alternative to a previous, less stirring, definition of the RSA's mission, namely 'enhancing human capability'. A focus on capability points to the key polarity when it comes to the individualistic drive. This is between the fulfillment of individual appetites (for stuff, power, wealth or whatever) versus a notion of human development. There are many versions of the latter and RSA folk are particularly keen on that of Robert Kegan but the key point is that this is an idea of individual aspiration linked to self-discipline and self-knowledge as well as self-expression.
By using the descriptor 'creative' the implication of Charlie's phrase is that the individualist drive in the most effective and innovative organisations is directed to personal growth and pride in craft rather than success measured only by income or promotion.
For me the most intriguing aspect of the Power to Create is that it implies two distinct but overlapping ideals, one with a primarily idealistic rationale and the other responding to more practical imperatives: first, citizens being able to create the lives they choose; second, an economy and society characterised by mass creativity.
The kind of creative organisations, places and societies needed to pursue both these goals would, according to this account, tend to exhibit leadership based on substantive rationality, forms of solidarity that are inclusive and constructive, and a developmental model of individual aspiration.
Certainly, as we look at the largely depressing tableau of modern politics and public discourse, to make the case for idealistic leadership, for forms of belonging which are generous and optimistic and a model of human success which is to do with being rounded productive citizens rather than wealth-hoarders or consumers – well, it seems pretty revolutionary.
Old states, new technologies
Filed under: The RSA
I agree with Adam Lent. There is no fundamental reason why the accelerating capacity of new technology to undertake tasks previously the domain of skilled humans should lead us to be pessimistic about the prospects for social progress. All things being equal, rising productivity driven by technological advance provides the basis for sustained economic growth and sustained economic growth (especially if that growth is focussed on the quality not the quantity of production) should mean more people being able to pay each other to have their needs met and desires fulfilled.
But, of course, all things are not equal. As Andrew McAfee and Erik Brynjolfsson recognise in 'The Second Machine Age' the impact of technological change both reflects and reinforces aspects of the social arrangements in which it appears. Neither economic nor technological determinists are right, as Evgeny Morozov has argued, different technologies interact with social reality in ways which reflect specific aspects of each. For example, email is functional for bureaucracies while social media tends to be disruptive and Twitter can be effective both as a way of mobilising protest and as a means to monitor dissent.
Thus the biggest danger of the coming third industrial revolution/second machine age (or whatever we choose to call it) is that it has the potential to map onto and further widen inequality in an era when national Governments seem particularly powerless to intervene on behalf of the greater good. Imagine if Google had been invented in the 1950s (yes, I know that was before the internet but stick with me): It would have been assumed that such a ubiquitous and essential service which makes its money largely out of expropriating other people's labour (content) would have been at the very least highly regulated and taxed and more likely brought into public ownership.
Among the characteristics which lead McAfee and Brynjolfsson to believe that intelligent computing power will further widen inequality are these: it is only the most creative and 'special' people who will still have something to offer than robots don't; and digitally based innovations can spread very quickly making huge monopoly profits for inventors and investors until another innovation comes along to make another killing for another group of super clever or super rich individuals.
Another related factor concentrating power and wealth are network effects which mean that the bigger the market share achieved by a platform, the more effective it is and the more able it is to withstand and buy out competition (think of the respective dominance and scope for rent-seeking profits of Google, Facebook, Amazon, Twitter and Kickstarter).
Without action technological change will reinforce already wide inequality. Compare this with the middle of the last century: the inventions of the first machine age – domestic electricity, motor cars and white goods – achieved ubiquity among Western consumers at a time when a much higher proportion of economic growth was recycled into the income of ordinary workers. Now – as Thomas Piketty eloquently argues – the proceeds of growth are being grabbed and hoarded by the already wealthy.
So, whilst Adam is right that we should reform education and pursue other policies to prepare our populations for the challenges and opportunities of the second machine age, these challenges will be much harder, and opportunities much fewer, unless Governments (working at home and internationally) can develop the legitimacy, confidence and know-how to ensure the benefits of the next technological revolution are fairly and wisely distributed.
Which reminds me of another of Adam's blogs, this one on Moses Naim's analysis of the decline of big power, particularly that of the state. The American sociologist Daniel Bell once argued that in the modern world the nation state would come to be seen as 'too big for the small things in life and too small for the big things'. I have tended to think of this as being about the spatial dimension of governance; the need for greater devolution to localities, on the one hand, and greater international collaboration, on the other, but it is more deeply a point about power.
I have repeatedly argued that central Government and its traditional policy tools are becoming ever more blunt and dysfunctional when it comes to social policy. Yet we desperately need the unique democratic authority of Government to tackle some of the biggest problems we face; on climate, inequality, infrastructure, regulating finance, and global security. When Piketty argues for a global wealth tax or McAfee and Brynjolfsson join the ranks of those who support a minimum income guarantee, it is not so much that people object to the proposals as that they have little faith in Government to be able to enact them successfully.
All of which leads to me to conclude that part of the RSA's pursuit of what we call the 'Power to Create' (releasing the creativity inherent in all of us) must be about 21st century statecraft. Technology is the most powerful single force in the modern world but its impact depends to a large degree on the choices we have made and the choices we will make. Democracy is the way we make those choices at a collective level. Unless democracy works better in twenty-first century conditions then there is no guarantee that technological progress will beget human progress.
Where is the future?
Filed under: Politics, The RSA
The daily manoeuvring we are already seeing ahead of next year's General Election can seem rather pointless. What has really changed in the polls in the last two years? Aren't we continuing to meander towards another hung Parliament with the only unanswered question – which is to be the biggest Party – being ultimately resolved by a few thousand votes in a short list of marginal seats? Probably: but more in hope than expectation I'll offer a way for things to become more interesting.
General Elections tend to be fought on three primary terrains: values, competence and future. Arguments about record and specific policies matter less for themselves than the degree to which they symbolise and reinforce these themes.
Labour is ahead on values, its traditional strong point; the Party scores relatively well on measures such as 'speaks up for ordinary people'. The Conservative response is a sometimes uneasy mixture of appeal to people's grievances about immigrants and those on benefits plus a quieter insistence that the Party continues to care about social mobility and poverty. Labour has tried to neutralise the first set of issues by sounding tough on claimants and immigration while choosing issues such as the bedroom tax to assert a value choice between the two largest Parties. The Lib Dems' favoured position is to share Labour's critique of 'uncaring' Conservatives but also to claim to be free of the less popular baggage of the labour movement.
The Conservatives are ahead on competence. They will be disappointed that the economic pick-up does not yet seem to have turned this advantage into a deal-clincher with the electorate. Sooner or later the Tories will launch a huge attack on the 'riskiness' of a Miliband Government'. They will be hoping this has an effect as powerful as the 1991/2 attack on Neil Kinnock (they may even be tempted to update the famous 'L' plate poster).
Labour has being trying to improve its competence rating. Thus there have been pledges on spending and borrowing and steps to improve the quality of Labour's front bench. One of the reasons Nick Clegg entered Government was to establish the Lib Dems as a serious Party of Government. So far this hasn't worked out well in terms of popularity but I suspect Clegg and his team will be in a stronger position come election time, albeit having to deal with insistent questions about who their favoured post-election partner would be.
While on values or competence we are dealing with fairly predictable game plans, when it comes to 'future' we are still largely in the dark. The future pitch is not just, or even mainly, about promises or aspirations. To win 'future' a party has to predict tomorrow in a credible way which lodges the idea that only that party understands and is prepared for that future.
The lack of future narrative may partly betray the limited time horizons and ambitions of the parties but it is also a reflection of the tough period we have been living through. Until recently any attempt to mobilise a positive future vision would have been seen as irrelevant, complacent or both. But that is changing. 'Future' is now up for grabs, and unlike values and competence it is far from clear who will wrestle control.
Much though it interests me, it's not my job as RSA CEO to speculate on political strategy or election outcomes. However, my analysis does offer an opportunity to wider civic society. Whilst there is little most of us can usefully do on values and competence other than reinforce various existing positions, when it comes to 'future' there is room for creativity, agenda-setting and new alliances.
To repeat, future is not just about aspirations. More interesting are scenarios; what do we think are the likely major trends that will shape the next ten years? And can we press the parties to start showing us they understand these trends, are prepared for them, and how they would seek to shape them? In short, which party seems to 'get the future' most convincingly.
For example, I have been writing quite a lot (here and here) about the trends making central Government less effective and blunting the tools of traditional policy making. Who has the best plan to deal with the decline of the centre? Population ageing is another key trend. We talk about the specifics of health and social care and universal benefits but what about the deeper demographic trend towards a society where there are many more older people, some more younger people and fewer in-between? What kind of society will and should this be? As long as a different hollowing out – of the middle of the labour market – continues tinkering with minimum wages and tax credits it is not likely to make any significant difference. Is this something we simply live with or is any party willing credibly to commit to restructure the labour market?
The widespread assumption a few decades ago that globalisation would lead to a homogenisation of domestic economic and social policy has been largely confounded. There are significant differences between countries and different routes to success and to ruin.
Let's hope that, amidst the attacks and retail policy offers, the next few months also sees the emergence of something that resembles a debate about alternative strategies for Britain (assuming, that is, there still is a Britain). Even better would be if this was a debate (unlike 99% of party politics) where the parties might in some areas agree to differ and let voters make an informed choice from the futures on offer. If the RSA could play a part in hosting such a debate I'm sure we'd be up for it.

Great title, Brian. I think the image of the cosmos, with the centre so sharp and the petals in rays around it, would be a picture in itself! But I don't see the bee as a bonus, I know that wouldn't be your intention, and it is as sharp and detailed as all of your insects.
Fantastic macrowork Brian, the detail and clarity is truly awesome and the colours are fab too
beautiful and not as easy as you make it seem, I tried for a picture today the bees nestle inside the plant centre and your lucky or should I say clever to get them either in flight or showing as yours is here - full credit to you Brian
