Dear Readers:
Note: The long term future of
Peacemovies.com is uncertain. I just today (6-13-12)
determined that Google Adsense ads have been disabled for the
site. I don't know why this happened, but looking at the Adsense
help section several possibilities come to mind, including an
arbitrary suspension for violating a silly little rule or
another such as not providing a land line phone and valid
address so I can get a PIN, or possibly I posted some offensive
content. So, I am using this space to pitch for donations. I
will not use Paypal or Visa/MC for donations as those avenues
could be terminated for content complaints, as happened to
Wikileaks. So if you want to send a donation, please send
only a personal check* payable to John Thielking to the street
address above. (I may get a DBA bank account soon, but this is
not set up yet.) The donations are not and will not be tax
deductible as I do not plan to restrict my political advocacy in
exchange for a tax break. I do plan on only asking for donations
and selling the newsletter at news racks for $1 per copy and
will not likely convert any portion of the site into a paid
subscription site. This way the site can continue to be
accessed by the most number of readers with the widest variety
of web surfing tools possible, including, in the case of the
paper and ink newsletter, people with no web surfing tools at
all.
I have also done some preliminary
research on the idea of publishing a book version of the monthly
paper and ink newsletters. After reviewing the unacceptable
terms and conditions for self publishing through Amazon.com or
lulu.com (various restrictions on publishing "offensive"
content, plus prohibitions on using celebrity names -- such as
Medea Benjamin?-- without permission and prohibitions on using
URL's that might be considered as linking to sites that are too
commercial --- such as Peacemovies.com?) I have decided to
make my first book --- "Peacemovies.com 2012" available for
"free" as a pdf, only downloadable from the Peacemovies.com web
site. Pdf's are compatible with the latest versions of the
Kindle and can also be read using the free Adobe Acrobat Reader
on your PC. All that I ask is that if you find yourself in
possession of my e-book that you send $5 to the address above
(personal check made out to John Thielking). Look for this first
e-book to appear in January 2013.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
John Thielking
* I ask for only a personal check
because my mail has been intercepted on three separate occasions
and in those cases it never reached its final destination. So if
you send a money order or international check, the funds may be
drawn from your account, but may never reach Peacemovies.com. A
personal check is better to send because if I never get the
check, the funds stay in your account. If you do send me a
donation, please also send me an e-mail at
pagesincolor@yahoo.com so I can document any cases of
lost/intercepted mail. Thanks.
