A Story or Two to Tell

By: Alan Crawford
A Story or Two to Tell is the presentation of two stories, with my fanciful resume. All read to the eager audience growing in numbers in the aged care complex I could call home. I don't live in an aged care home just yet and I'm not a psychopath. Even though the stories are aimed at a mature audience, they may sometimes seem immature. Nearly all of the story content comes from my rather warped imagination, having been exposed to too much TV and Films, but some are based in reality. Of course, most of it is pure fiction. The first story deals with reluctant and good-looking food operators, less-than-compliant outlaw bike clubs, cult-like Church leadership and adult entertainmen...

Doomed To Fail - Why Government Is Incapable Of Living Up To Our Hopes

By: Paul Shotton
In Doomed To Fail the author explains why, because people have individual agency, human society is a complex adaptive system (CAS). CAS have several important properties: they are highly non-linear, tending to obey power laws, and are deeply interconnected, rendering invalid classic techniques such as breaking a system down into individual components, having experts solve each component separately, and then reconstituting the whole. This method will work for systems which are complicated, but not for systems which are mathematically complex. As in the world of quantum mechanics, there is no independence between the system under observation and the people doing the observing, resulting in the...

By: Jon Cabrera

In the world of Velmira, identity is power. Every hero is born with a name, a class, and stats—except him. He woke up in the game with nothing. No name. No class. No memory.

Forced to survive with no buffs, no allies, and no mercy, he must carve his own path in blood, unravel a hidden conspiracy within the system, and fight to earn the one thing everyone else took for granted: a name.
