The Fishy Death Of Jeffrey Epstein
The late billionaire Jeffrey Epstein's pedophilia is what has interested the media. But his own blog, which is still active even after his death, suggests what he and his fellow elites were really interested in. He called it "cutting edge science." It is how the global elites intend to manage our lives. They already claim credit for "rewriting our global culture."
"Jeffrey Epstein is a former member of the Mind, Brain and Behavior Committee at Harvard, the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, the New York Academy of Science and a former Rockefeller University Board Member," his website proclaimed. "Mr. Epstein is also an active member of the Edge Organization."
You can't get higher-up than Epstein. This is the crème de la crème of the American establishment. But as Patrick Wood, Editor of Technocracy News & Trends notes, "He had no visible or logical means of creating wealth, although he spent a fortune on various pet projects."
Wood comments that Epstein was definitely NOT like "the typical member" of the Trilateral Commission (TC) or Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). "He had no compelling outward qualifications as far as I can tell, but if you think about the TC and CFR as being potentially useful for nefarious purposes, then Epstein was the blackmailer and his secret and real profession was sex trafficking and pedophilia," Wood adds, "It has been alleged that every room in his mansions had hidden cameras that filmed everything and everyone and that the videos taken were stored offsite in a still-undisclosed location. These will never be released because they implicate so many of the global elite."
These are serious concerns, and there is no guilt by association. But Epstein's mysterious death, at this juncture in history, is extremely significant. Attorney General William Barr tells AP that Epstein's "suicide" was the result of "a perfect storm of screw-ups." But in the same way that then-candidate Donald J. Trump had brought up the case of the mysterious death of former Clinton aide Vincent Foster, calling it "fishy," there are too many outstanding questions about the Epstein death. Like Foster, he is a man who knew too much.
Blaming two federal prison guards for his "suicide" cannot be accepted at face value.
A quick look into one of Epstein's affiliated groups, the Edge organization, reveals a "Billionaires' Dinner" with photos of Jeff Bezos, owner of Amazon and the Washington Post; Jeffrey Epstein; and many others. "Guests have included the leading third culture intellectuals of our time, dining and conversing with the founders of Amazon, AOL, eBay, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, PayPal, Space X, Skype, Twitter," says the website. "It is a remarkable gathering of outstanding minds — the people that are rewriting our global culture."
This new global order is based on Scientism, a philosophy attractive to the global elites which holds that a small group of powerful people will manage the future through technocracy. Some of these people believe in "transhumanism," the use of science and technology to enhance human mental and physical characteristics, creating a virtual super-race of humans.
Epstein, for example, "planned on using his own semen to impregnate the chosen ones and thus improve the human race," notes Wood. "Epstein also planned to cryonically freeze his head and his penis, so that future science could bring him back to life to live forever."
In this way, Epstein believed that he would, personally, be resurrected and experience a form of eternal life.
Life and Death Among the Elites
While this kind of approach sounds fantastic, the fact is that Epstein, a college dropout, was highly regarded by such elite organizations such as the Trilateral Commission and Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and Harvard University. As reported by the Harvard Crimson, "He cultivated cozy friendships with top Harvard administrators including a former University president" and pledged a $30 million donation to Harvard to fund the University's Program for Evolutionary Dynamics. "Our work is about understanding the past, managing the present, and helping to build the future," it says.
Epstein was accepted into the "Chairman's Circle" of the CFR's top donors but the group's president, Richard Haass, has tried to distance himself from Epstein after his death. However, the Trilateral Commission, whose membership is by invitation only, has not said anything publicly about his involvement with the organization.
Research into the agenda of these organizations is as important as finding out those who were rubbing elbows (or other body parts) with Epstein or the young girls in his harem. How could someone with enormous wealth, obtained through mysterious circumstances, reach the pinnacle of power. Was it because of his keen intellect?
The Trilateral Commission's goal has always been the "deeper integration and greater globalization" of the world's economies but asserts that such a process has been jeopardized by "populism and nationalism." That's a reference to the election of Donald J. Trump as U.S. President and the Brexit process of leaving the European Union in Britain. In the words of the Trilateral Commission, the future of humanity is threatened.
The Trilateral Commission Summer 2019 report, "Democracies Under Stress" reflects the current political thinking of the global elite who invited Epstein to join their "prestigious" organizations and attend their "dinners." It states, "All of this [stress] is occurring at a time when Beijing is offering the world what many see as a viable alternative to democracy."
The "many" is not defined. But speaking for themselves, in terms of the "many," these global elites apparently see the U.S. experiment in constitutional self-government as less efficient than China's rule by the communist elite.
This report from the Trilateral Commission features two pictures of former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, a prominent member of the North American Group. One shows Kissinger with Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, who fooled the West with Glasnost and Perestroika while pursuing the goal of world communism with the support of "socialists" and environmentalists in the West. Former top Jimmy Carter adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski also "played an important role in the formation" of the Trilateral Commission and served as its first director from 1973 to 1976. By the way, his daughter is Mika Brzezinski, a host on the Trump-hating MSNBC cable channel. She is married to co-host Joe Scarborough. Both are members of the CFR.
Media organizations represented by Trilateral Commission members include NBC News, Bloomberg, the Washington Post, Time Magazine, CNN, the Wall Street Journal, and the New York Times. Clearly, they, too, play a major role in shaping the culture.
Secrets and Cover-Ups
The heavy media presence in the organization explains why commission meetings and reports are not examined critically or even covered. Hence, we can assume one is invited to join such an organization, "by invitation only," and stay involved, based on favorable coverage, or non-coverage, of what this organization actually does. That virtually guarantees that "whistleblowers" will never come forward with inside information about their plans.
But Patrick Wood, who co-authored the book, Trilaterals Over Washington, has watched the activities of the organization for many years and says there is no doubt that China has always been the key to the plans of the TC. He notes that Kissinger started the relationship with China under President Nixon and then Brzezinski completed most of the communist country's integration into the global economy under President Carter. The goal has been to develop an elaborate scheme of social engineering, a technocracy, which will be used to bring into being an anticipated new worldwide utopian system.
In the elite view, an authoritarian system of governance such as China would allow technocracy to thrive much more quickly than in Western democracies, or in our Constitutional Republic. Indeed, China now leads the world in video surveillance firms that feature facial and voice recognition capabilities. The regime's "social credit" system of regulating the personal lives of citizens has already achieved some notoriety. Here, a softer version of the "social credit" approach has been adopted by social media which collects personal information about users and controls the news and information available to the people.
But America seems to be going the Chinese route. Amazon's "Rekognition" program promises "Facial Recognition with Artificial Intelligence."
Amazon does extensive work for the CIA and has just filed suit challenging the awarding of the Pentagon's $10 billion Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure or JEDI cloud-computing contract to Microsoft. Bill Gates, Microsoft's co-founder, was photographed at Epstein's Manhattan mansion in 2011.
What the future holds is being left up to those who associated with Jeffrey Epstein.

My friend Joshua Yeary from America has developed an excellent scoring method known as the Personal Finance (PF) Score, which helps to determine a person's financial fitness level. To calculate your PF score, you'll need to establish your net worth and your yearly expenses. Taking your net worth and dividing it by your annual expenses, you'll get your PF score (PF Score = Net Worth ÷ Annual Expenses).
<0 = You have a negative net worth and need to get out of debt NOW!
1 = Nice Work! You've successfully saved up one year's worth of expenses.
5 = You're starting to pick up steam, keep up the good work.
0 = The ball is really rolling now. Your money is getting behind you every step of the way.
25 = Congratulations, you are now financially independent! You can now withdraw 4% annually from your investment, without ever touching the principal, to cover all of your expenses. You no longer have to work for money.
30 = Your investments are now out-earning your spending and continuing to grow. You could be building up a legacy to pass down to future generations.
>30 = You are long past worrying about money.
Now you have it - the new score that provides a good assessment of your current financial health. Not only must you take good care of your physical health, it is equally important to look after your financial health as well.
My financial health used to be very bad even though I have no problem with my physical health. I had huge consumer debts that contributed to a negative net worth and my PF score would have been less than zero at that time. After going through many years of financial workouts (learning and practicing good money habits, eliminating debts, saving money to invest in assets, etc.) to improve my financial fitness, my PF score now stands very healthy at 56. If I can do it despite being in poor financial health before, so can anyone who is determined to restore optimal financial health.
How does your PF score look today? Remember, whatever your score is, start taking immediate action to improve your financial fitness. Don't despair if you have a low or even negative PF score now. I'm sure you'll see your score improving over time with your persistent financial workouts.
Great post Kelvin! I like how you compared it to someone's financial health, it makes for an excellent parallel. Plus a score of 56, WOW, you are knocking it out of the park. When you are ready to invest in some Seattle Real Estate please let me know. We are currently one of the top five fastest growing cities in the USA.
Hey Josh, thanks for dropping by! I'm currently focusing my property investment in Singapore, Australia and Malaysia. Will surely seek your advice when I'm ready to look at Seattle properties, my friend!

Wired magazine's article on Facebook accessibility disappoints
by Beth
I'm blind, and I don't go on Facebook very regularly. Navigating through all those buttons and links and menus and edit boxes with a screen reader is very time-consuming, especially when you consider the reward at the end: A few funny posts, but mostly photos…and I can't see them.
So I was pretty excited when my boss here at Easter Seals forwarded me a story in Wired about efforts by Facebook's "Accessibility Team" to make the site more user-friendly to those of us who can't see. Facebook's Jeff Wieland founded the Facebook Accessibility team in 2011, and the Wired story was called "Meet the Team That Makes It Possible for the Blind to Use Facebook". I was hoping it might be about Facebook coming up with an alternative website for blind users, one with fewer bells and whistles, or that maybe Facebook had decided they wouldn't put apps or updates on their site until they've gone through a quality assurance process to make sure they meet accessibility standards.
But alas, the article was a disappointment. It focused on a speech-synthesizer program called VoiceOver, which is not a Facebook product at all. VoiceOver is a built-in screen access program that's built into all Apple products. It's fantastic, and I've been using it on my iPhone for years. It's an Apple app, and it's old news
The article was written by Cade Metz, and he only refers to one single blind Facebook user — a woman named Jessie Lorenz — in the piece. She speaks for all of us, I guess. An excerpt:
In letting her read and write on the social network, Voiceover and other tools provide a wonderfully immediate way to interact with people both near and far.
The story said Lorenz is one of about 50,000 people who actively use Facebook through Apple Voiceover, but it never referenced where it got that number, or how successful those 50,000 people are in their attempts to use the site. It also claimed "tens of thousands" of people who are deaf, or can't use computer keyboards or mice or touchscreens use closed captioning, mouth-controlled joysticks, and other tools to access Facebook, but again, no reference to where the author got that number, either.
The writer said that some of the tools people with disabilities use to access Facebook come from other companies and plug into Facebook, but after he says that some are "built into Facebook," the only built-into-Facebook accessibility tool he describes is one they'd developed to help with photos.
"Now, together with tools like Voiceover, Facebook can tell the blind when a photo was taken (based on meta-data uploaded with the photo) or who's in it (based on tags from users)."
I haven't heard descriptions like these when I go to the Facebook site, and I'm guessing that's because I do that with another speech synthesizer –JAWS –on my PC. I'm not sure how many blind computer users use JAWS, but if I were this reporter, I suppose I could just say tens of thousands. The reporter would have learned about JAWS and other speech synthesizers if he'd interviewed a few other blind computer users besides Jessie Lorenz, and hey, even she had reservations about Facebook's Accessibility Team. "Despite recent changes made by Wieland and team, Lorenz says Facebook still doesn't give her much info on photos."
Oh, well.

« The [blank] beneath my wings
Dino would never tell »
Je pars avec toi
3 October 2010 · 5:52 pm · Tongue and Groove
Kevin Walsh, proprietor of Forgotten NY, occasionally posts classic hits (via YouTube) on Facebook, and the other day he got around to an old favorite from 1963: "I Will Follow Him," by Little Peggy March.
Still, when I got around to compiling a Valentine's Day Mix several years ago, I passed Peggy by in favor of the original French-language version by Petula Clark, which you can see here in what appears to be a Scopitone film.
These days, of course, most people probably remember the 1992 adaptation in Sister Act, which was splendid in its own right. But I'm here to tell you, Petula has been singing this song for almost fifty years, and she still sounds pretty darn good:
The Charlie Chaplin reference near the end is to "This Is My Song," written by Chaplin for his 1967 film A Countess from Hong Kong, starring Marlon Brando and Sophia Loren; it was a smash hit for Petula and presumably was the next song on the program. It sounds something like this.
Intelligence on Earth is a constant; the population is growing.

(Phys.org) —In February two Iberian lynx females who belong to the Iberian lynx Conservation Breeding Program (ILCBPS) were castrated in order to guarantee a better quality of life and prevent possible health problems.
Scientist from the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research IZW, Berlin, Germany, went to the breeding centers in Spain and Portugal to obtain embryos by flushing the oviducts and freeze ovarian tissue immediately after surgery. The obtained embryos and ovarian pieces are stored in liquid nitrogen. Now they are kept at the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales de Madrid (CSIC) for further usage in the breeding programme.
The specialists of the IZW performed a pioneering procedure to obtain and freeze embryos in a wildlife species. Based on their experience in the domestic cat, they developed a method for cryopreserving oocytes and embryos of wild cat species. "Seven days after mating we expected to flush embryos from the uterus. In both cases, however, oocytes and embryos were still within the oviducts. Thus, the embryo development in lynxes is slower than in domestic cats", says Prof Katarina Jewgenow from the IZW specialist team.
During two consecutive breeding seasons, "Azahar", a female lynx from the Centro Nacional de Reprodução de Lince Ibérico in Silves, Portugal, experienced problems during parturition and an emergency caesarean operation was required in each case. The Iberian Lynx Conservation Breeding Program recommended not to breed "Azahar" again. In this situation it was decided to try to preserve her genetic material by collecting embryos and freezing the ovarian cortex after removing ovaries by castration. The IZW team preserved three embryos and the ovarian cortex. "The next step we are discussing right now is to implant these embryos into a foster mother, which might be an Eurasian lynx female", comments Jewgenow.
"Saliega", the other female, is located in the Centro de Cría de el Acebuche, in Doñana, Spain. "Saliega" was the first Iberian lynx who was bred in captivity in 2005. In July 2012 she suffered from a mammary tumor after lactating her current litter. The risk of mammary tumor recidivism, her advanced age (12 years) and the fact that she already gave birth to 16 cubs during the last 8 years was the basis for the decision to castrate her as well. "From her we only flushed unfertilised eggs, thus the male was not fertile", said Natalia Mikolaewska, a doctoral student from the IZW. "Her genetic material in terms of ovarian cortex oocytes was frozen as well", comments Natalia.
The Iberian lynx is the only wild cat species listed on the IUCN Red List as critically endangered. A decade ago, less than 200 individuals were left. The remaining population is located in southern Spain.

```

Define a `tests` alias in your console config. For example, for the `basic` application template, this should be added
to the `console.php` configuration: `Yii::setAlias('tests', __DIR__ . '/../tests');`
To start using this command you need to be familiar (read guide) with the [Faker](https://github.com/fzaninotto/Faker) library and
generate fixture template files, according to the given format:

```php
// users.php file under template path (by default @tests/unit/templates/fixtures)
/**
 * @var $faker \Faker\Generator
 * @var $index integer
 */
return [
    'name' => $faker->firstName,
    'phone' => $faker->phoneNumber,
    'city' => $faker->city,
    'password' => Yii::$app->getSecurity()->generatePasswordHash('password_' . $index),
    'auth_key' => Yii::$app->getSecurity()->generateRandomString(),
    'intro' => $faker->sentence(7, true),  // generate a sentence with 7 words
];
```

As you can see, the template file is just a regular PHP script. The script should return an array of key-value
pairs, where the keys represent the table column names and the values the corresponding value. When you run
the `fixture/generate` command, the script will be executed once for every data row being generated.
In this script, you can use the following two predefined variables:

* `$faker`: the Faker generator instance
* `$index`: the current fixture index. For example if user need to generate 3 fixtures for user table, it will be 0..2.

With such a template file, you can generate your fixtures using the commands like the following:

```
# generate fixtures from user fixture template
php yii fixture/generate user

# to generate several fixture data files
php yii fixture/generate user profile team
```

In the code above `users` is template name. After running this command, a new file with the same template name
will be created under the fixture path in the `@tests/unit/fixtures`) folder.

```
php yii fixture/generate-all
```

This command will generate fixtures for all template files that are stored under template path and
store fixtures under fixtures path with file names same as templates names.
You can specify how many fixtures per file you need by the `--count` option. In the code below we generate
all fixtures and in each file there will be 3 rows (fixtures).

```
php yii fixture/generate-all --count=3
```
You can specify different options of this command:

```
# generate fixtures in russian language
php yii fixture/generate User --count=5 --language='ru_RU'

# read templates from the other path
php yii fixture/generate-all --templatePath='@app/path/to/my/custom/templates'

# generate fixtures into other directory.
php yii fixture/generate-all --fixtureDataPath='@tests/acceptance/fixtures/data'
```

You can see all available templates by running command:

```
# list all templates under default template path (i.e. '@tests/unit/templates/fixtures')
php yii fixture/templates

# list all templates under specified template path
php yii fixture/templates --templatePath='@app/path/to/my/custom/templates'
```

You also can create your own data providers for custom tables fields, see [Faker](https://github.com/fzaninotto/Faker) library guide for more info;
After you created custom provider, for example:

```php
class Book extends \Faker\Provider\Base
{

    public function title($nbWords = 5)
    {
        $sentence = $this->generator->sentence($nbWords);
        return mb_substr($sentence, 0, mb_strlen($sentence) - 1);
    }

 }
```

You can use it by adding it to the `$providers` property of the current command. In your console.php config:

```php
'controllerMap' => [
    'fixture' => [
        'class' => 'yii\faker\FixtureController',
        'providers' => [
            'app\tests\unit\faker\providers\Book',
        ],
    ],
]
```

Algerian tied to 9/11 attacks arrested again in Spain
By AT editor - 3 November 2018 at 8:18 pm
Officials in Spain say they've arrested 19 people, including an Algerian previously connected with the September 11 attacks in the United States, after breaking up a credit card fraud ring in Madrid.
Spain's National Police said the group created fake credit cards by skimming and cloning them, and were responsible for up to 5 million euros in fraudulent use of the cards at commercial establishments and ATMs.
A dramatic video shows police entering a building and breaking down the door in a raid on the Madrid operation. The video protects the identity of a man handcuffed and taken into custody during the raid, while showing boxes of credit cards, passports and other equipment on display.
The group was led by a 49-year-old Algerian who had served a prison sentence in Spain for helping to fund the September 11 terror attacks. His name was not released, according to Associated Press reports.
The Algerian ring leader was convicted of helping to finance the 2001 attacks.
At least 18 people were found guilty in 2005 during trials in Spain, where they were accused of meeting with Egyptian Mohamed Atta – the lead hijacker in the airplane attacks on the U.S. – and Ramzi bin al-Shibh of Yemen, along with other suspected members of the Al Qaeda terrorist organization.
Those arrested in Spain shortly after the September 11 attacks included a number of North Africans, including Moroccans, as well as Syrians.

Q: How to trigger Jquery slide effect only when a specific option is selected and button is clicked? I have a simple form with a  dropdown, an input zipcode field, and a button. I want the Jquery slide effect that I have created to execute only when 1. A specific  is selected, 2. When a zip code is entered and 3. when the button is clicked to submit. The button only works after I execute other JS on the page, and I cannot get the if statement to work properly. Please help.
These effect are working correctly and doing what I want. I just need them to trigger when the above criteria is met:
$( "#slide-2" ).show("slide", {direction: "right"}, 500);
$( "#slide-1" ).hide("slide", {direction: "left"}, 500);

<form class="product-form">
    <select id="product-dropdown">
<option value="">Select a Product</option>
      <option value="auto" selected>Auto Insurance</option>
<option value="autoresidence" id="bundled-selected">Auto + Residence (save more!)</option>
      <option value="home">Home Insurance</option>
      <option value="home-condo">Condo Insurance</option>
      <option value="renters">Renters Insurance</option>
    </select>

    <input type="text" class="quote-zip" id="gaq-zip-code" name="gaqZipCode" placeholder="Enter Zip Code" maxlength="5">

      <button href="#" id="submit-gaq" class="quote-submit">Get a Quote</button>
</form>
 <script type="text/javascript">
   $( ".quote-submit" ).click(function() {
   $( "#slide-2" ).show("slide", {direction: "right"}, 500);
   $( "#slide-1" ).hide("slide", {direction: "left"}, 500);
    });
    </script>

A: I would recommend following the pattern that you already have in order to trigger the fewest events -- on the button click, verify the other criteria.
$(".quote-submit").click(function () {
    if ($("#product-dropdown").val() == "Specific Text" && $("gaq-zip-code").val().length == 5) {
        $("#slide-2").show("slide", { direction: "right" }, 500);
        $("#slide-1").hide("slide", { direction: "left" }, 500);
    }
});

A: Following your requirements, also added ability to disable the button. You don't want people wondering why the form isn't submitting even though it should be obvious.
if ($('#gaq-zip-code').val().length == 0 && ($("#product-dropdown").val() == "Home Insurance")) {
   $('submit-gaq').removeAttr('disabled');
   $( ".quote-submit" ).click(function() {
   $( "#slide-2" ).show("slide", {direction: "right"}, 500);
   $( "#slide-1" ).hide("slide", {direction: "left"}, 500);
    });
}
else{
$('submit-gaq').attr('disabled','disabled');
}

This One Thing Makes Dry January A Success
Lindsay KohlerContributor
I use behavioral science to maximize performance at work and in life.
We're halfway through January. Given the weather and the disruptive events thus far, many of you who chose dry January as a health goal — a month in which no alcohol is consumed — might find that your willpower is waning. That's not surprising, given that there are six powerful science-backed reasons why you want to drink more. Luckily, science also has a solution. Let's first look at why you are drinking more.
#1: Stronger than usual emotions
Emotions and their impact on alcohol use are well studied. When you're feeling rational and thinking with a cool head, it's quite easy to underestimate how powerfully visceral emotions will impact your future behavior. Visceral emotions are raw, hedonic feelings — such as anger, hunger, and lust. And what they do is make us view impulsive actions, such as drinking, more favorably. Many of us are experiencing strong emotions at the moment due to events outside of our control. This makes us more likely to pour that extra glass
#2: Stress erodes willpower
While the idea of ego depletion — a theory that willpower is a finite resource — is debated, there is no denying that after we've had a long day, that cold one in the fridge seems like a fabulous idea. The days in lockdown feel longer and the background stress we are all experiencing from the uncertainty of the pandemic, environment, and government makes it more likely that we will reach for that alcoholic comfort after a long day.
#3: Negative feelings outweigh positive feelings
Negative emotions such as anxiety and stress influence three important decisions. First, the decision to drink in those who use it as a coping mechanism. Second, the quantity consumed. And third, how good it feels. If you're experiencing more negative emotions than usual, then you may also be drinking more.
#4: Alcohol myopia
Ever find yourself in disbelief that you've had your fourth, fifth, or even sixth drink when out with friends? Alcohol myopia theory posits that alcohol and the associated good feelings focus our attention and enjoyment on the immediate experience. That's why time flies when you're having fun, drinking with friends — and it's easy to lose track of your drink count. The same thing can also happen in reverse. When you're having an intense emotional drinking experience, you'll likely drink more than you intended to.

#5: We think everyone else is drinking more, too
We conform our behavior to what we think is normal. Right now, if we look at internet memes or what our friends post, we might be led to believe that they are all drinking more, too. That makes drinking more a whole lot more acceptable. However, we may be overestimating how much our friends drink — which could lead to increased consumption in a desire to "fit in."
#6: Poor impulse control
Some of us are worse at impulse control than others, and impulsivity is a key consumption driver. Therefore, if you tend to be impulsive and find yourself in a bad mood more often these days, that doesn't set you up for sober success.
Now we know what's working against us. Let's look at what works for us.
To succeed in dry January, look to ancient Greece
If you're looking to finish out dry January on a high note, one of the best things to do is prevent the unhealthy behavior before it starts. A brilliant example of this is from Homer's The Odyssey, the epic Greek poem. One scene stands out to behavioral scientists in terms of being brilliant at preventing drinking.
Enter the beautiful, deadly Sirens. Known for their enchanting voices, these mythological creatures lured unsuspecting sailors to their death via song. Ulysses knew of their reputation, but also knew he couldn't trust himself to resist the urge to listen.
Therefore, he ordered his men to put wax in their ears so they couldn't hear the deadly song — and also ordered them to tie him to the mast. This allowed him to hear the other-worldly song without being compelled to dive into the water to his death.
Essentially, he pre-emptively put guardrails in place because he knew future him couldn't be trusted to resist the deadly call. These "Ulysses contracts," have become an extremely valuable tool in health. Consider them as an advanced directive by thwarting future bad behavior rather than encouraging current healthy behaviors.
So the one thing you need to do to nail dry January is…not buy alcohol at the store. Future you cannot be trusted to not drink it later, so remove the option from the table. If it's not in the house, you can't drink it. This type of intervention doesn't rely on willpower; rather, it employs the trustier tools of external constraints.
Good luck out there, and happy dry January!
