They’re coming for your sick leave, next. Then, they want your home equity. People living in the media bubble like to insist that there is no Deep State.  Yet, there’s an emerging case in Texas that proves the point we’ve been making for years – namely that nowadays, the Government Rules – not We the People. Worse? It … Read More

We’ve been  thinking with an interesting data metrics idea for timing market moves up, or down.  Specifically it has to do with what I would describe as the global psychological analog  to out existing work in aggregated markets. The simplest was to describe it is the notion that taken as a whole, the world some weeks … Read More

Among the many failings of the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations, our adventures this weekend with the FTA have brought a lot of things into perspective for us.  They’re worth some thought. First, what is FTA? Well, that’s short for  free-to-air television.  Most people are happy watching the “corporate-filtered” news dispensed in America to the … Read More

In the Friday morning “Coping” section on UrbanSurvival.com I proposed something outrageou, even for us.As readers know, we have been collecting a huge “bubble” of anomalous-event reports in the past week, including several “far-out” events rights here at the ranch in East Texas. But, this morning we take it further and expand on the inquiry … Read More

There is a weak case, but a case nevertheless, to be made that woo-woo upticks may be associated with stock market directional changes. Over the past two weeks, we have had a major uptick in both personal “woo-woo” along with reader-submitted reports.  These come as the market may have, in this period, flipped from a likely outcome of … Read More

OK, picking up from Tuesday, where I went into not one but two oddities about the evolving “holes in Really” around here…  Had a conversation with Lt. Col. (retired) Chris McCleary who took up the National Dream Center Project from us in 2008. Turns out, working on his EDS and PhD in counseling has not rendered … Read More

Saturday on the Peoplenomics side of the house we will cover a unique topic:  News Trajectories. But, both for subscribers and the ‘great unwashed’ we can use this morning’s release of the Consumer Price Index data as a dandy example.  You see, when a news item like the CPI crosses, it doesn’t just operate in the … Read More

As readers know, the office-shop of UrbanSurvival is a glorious (verging on palatial) place:  Tools galore, plenty of electronics for the Extra Class ham radio op in you, or whatever turns your crank.  Pass the plasma cutter and sample three different “on-ramps” to the Internet. With summer here, though, and not figuring it to be … Read More

The shock resignation of New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman may have just saved the Trump presidency and lost the democrat’s chance of major congressional gains in the off-year congressional races, in our odd view of the world. That’s because The New Yorker has published a first-rate piece of journalism in “Four Women Accuse New York’s … Read More

We don’t get too deeply into woo-woo reports here lately for a number of reasons.  When a person begins talking about “jumping timelines” and such, heads cock and people look askance… Sadly, when the genuinely inexplicable events happen, people tend to write the website off as “Naw, that Ure dude’s fulla crap…”  Which may be true, … Read More

The market is poised to break to much higher levels, but it’s still to early to pour oodles of money on the long side – just yet. For one, there are major resistance levels overhead from here.  Second thing to watch is whether “Sell in May and go away…” shows up this year.  It really … Read More

My first encounter with balanced-brain theory was in the 1990’s when I was head of admissions for a vocational college.  Anything that would help understand whether a particular course, leading to a career, would benefit the student’s long-term interests was important.
