Winding Down 2015 w/Brief Updates on Our Kickstarter Projects

It has been quite a year here @ #Outsiders.    We had hoped to take a bit of time when we released our Network-Wide Holiday Greetings last week to gear up for the new year.  But the World does not wait and earlier our team released a retrospective on 2015 that we hope all enjoy.

Our team has also been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Kickstarter Projects we've backed so that we can begin the series on it for 2016.     We got word that the NFC SmartRing has shipped and we eagerly await the update.   Since it is the holidays, we wanted to feature the latest from CHIP which we hope you enjoy--and they had a cute Holiday wish too to wish us all a "Merry CHIP.mas" :))))

31 Merry C.H.I.P.mas!!! Posted by Next Thing Co. Happy holidays from Gus and the Copyright Free Snow Beast! (C.H.I.Pmas GIF by Michael!) DECEMBER C.H.I.P.s ARE SHIPPING! Twas the days before Christmas, in Oakland, C.A.  Ari burst in the office, “Hey C.H.I.P. ships today!”  C.H.I.P.s for December had left Hong Kong on a flight. With January C.H.I.P.s’ journeys nearly in sight.  Done it, she had! The C.H.I.P.s shipped on time.  NTC crew rejoices with holiday rhyme.

 

As We Bid Farewell to 2015: Reflections & A Holiday Wish.....

It has been an interesting and challenging morning especially in the aftermath of the Federal Reserve's Decision to raise interest rates.    Markets have responded favorably to the end of "cheap money" although profound reservations remain as to whether the Fed's move is a bit rash right now.   A challenging World is also ever so before us with Brazil in Turmoil (As it just got a downgrade), the inferno in Syria and of course the United States Elections.    As we were working away, we also got an update from France that the IMF Chief has been ordered to stand trial over the so-called, "Tapie Affair" in France.    It has also been a year where we've been quite busy supporting a number of interesting Kickstarter Projects and transformations that we look forward to featuring in our Visions Channel in 2016 as our Daily Outsider 2.x will also be a focus.

As we are winding down the year here in #outsiders and gearing up for the new year, we also wanted to join the World in extending Happy Birthday to the Holy Father as he turns 79 Years old today. We also have decided to go "dark" throughout the Properties for the rest of the year as we gear up for 2016. Our team, will be continuing the daily Twitter curation and the Daily Update that is published for our founder featured throughout the #Outsider properties will be available for all daily.

We started on a journey that has been perilous at times.   As we reflected upon our journey, we took comfort in these thoughts thanks again to +Jonathan Huie :

In this world there is always danger
for those who are afraid of it.
- George Bernard Shaw

If we let things terrify us,
life will not be worth living.
- Seneca 

We appreciate all the support and look forward to the opportunity to serve in 2016 as we wish you all....

and our fervent wish for all for all to......

Onward to 2016 with all its' possiblities.....

Thought(s) For the Week: On Giving

As the year 2015 draws to a close, we found it quite timely to once again feature thoughts from one of our must reads from +Jonathan Huie on Giving.    Giving is probably the most important thing anyone can do to strive to create the ultimate vision of the possible.   It is a lesson to be remembered for sure during this joyous holiday season:  

Giving is the highest expression of our power.

- Vivian Greene

It is in giving that we receive.
- St. Francis of Assisi 

Giving liberates the soul of the giver.
- Maya Angelou

Spread love everywhere you go.
Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.
- Mother Teresa

Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity.
- Pema Chodron
