(d) Consolidated Interest-Bearing Promissory Notice ‘Consols’ are notes that promise the performance of the prima facie obligation written thereon, which are issued to holders in whose possession the notes appreciate until the holder realizes the value of the principle ‘maturity’, redeems the note with the issuer thereof, and pays their attention ‘interest’ at the rate of appropriations billed over time. This is the ‘consolidated’ methodology and protocol for circulating the DAO current ‘c’. Therefore the issuer keeps bankers hours, 10 to 3 Mon-Fri. In praxis, focusing on the direct sale of information may cause public confusion, alienation, and anxiety; but the circulation of consols is a more comprehensible and worthy business enterprise.

TO ALL TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS COME, SEND GREETINGS AND PEACE:—
Coalition Forces of the FLF-DAO
(a) La Croix Noire demonstrates for the natural order of universe (the Dao) and, by extension, peace, love, freedom, truth and justice/equity, which are dialectic (dualistic) expressions of the Dao. The Dao is not to be worshipped, as there is no one worthy of worship but God ﷲ who created the universe together with its proper functionality which is called the Dao.
(b) La Croix Noire practices its first amendment rights through non-action, or wu wei, in the Friends’ manner of waiting worship, wherein they await the coming of the kingdom, or of the second coming. In this manner the Organization is a non-violent movement. Any organization or member commissioned into the BCO must practice non-violence except in cases of self-defense.
(c) There are noncommissioned coalition organizations ‘NCOs’, such as the Anti-Fascist Organization and (arguably) the Proud Boys Organization (insofar as they demonstrate in protest of coercive government), that may be characterized by use of force. The decentralized autonomous organization ‘DAO’ of the people of the world have many coalition forces with different policies on the use of force.
(d) The BCO opposes coercive use of force in general, and to that extent is best characterized as Anarcho-Daoism; for the decentralized autonomous organization of the people is the materialization of the will of the Great Dao (Tao, ‘Way’) which is the most ubiquitous and lasting system, a most enigmatic and mystical force of nature.
(e) The sage is the exemplar of living in harmony with the Dao through the praxis of wu wei; the sage cultivates virtue within and spreads it outward through the branches of the human family. Thus the ‘authority’ of the sage is testimonial, not coercive; it is the exemplification of a living testimony of peace, simplicity, and integrity in the manner of Friends.
(f) Straight and narrow is the Daojiao ‘Way’. The ‘Way’ is like unto Islam, in that it is the only path to eternal life provided by the Creator, as attested to by the most sagacious and noble Rabbi Yahshuah ‘Jesus’ the Anointed ‘Christ’ of God, peace be upon him ‘PBUH’.
(g) By and through the covenant between humanity and the Lord God ﷲ, Creator of Heaven and Earth the Sea and all that therein is, and the counsel and redemption of the former by the life and blood sacrifice of our Comforter Prophet and Rabbi Yahshuah ‘Isa’ ‘Jesus’ the Christ PBUH, La Croix Noire and N∴S∴ shall demonstrate, discharge, and perform its obligation exclusively under the principles of equity jurisprudence, which is ‘grace/mercy/forgiveness at law’.

P.P.S. Since deleting IG from my device yesterday, I notice my thoughts being clearer, more profound, and less prone to depressive ‘churning’.

(b) The decentralized autonomous organization ‘DAO’ is constituted by local self-organized, self–operating, self-governing bodies, ‘syndicates’ or ‘assemblies’, of friends or students. The smallest unit of such organization, being approximately two to eight people, may be commissioned as a Black Cross Squadron ‘BCS’ and may be lodged in a House of Studies or ‘meeting tent’. A BCS is a BCO unit.
(c) A BCS shall principally conduct a general course of study, autodidactically and dialectically, and shall, at the will of the DAO, take leave to fight for peace, love, freedom, justice, and/or equity on behalf of any and/or all affected natural people.
(d) A BCS may convene a mission (a) to commission a Black Cross squadron, chapter, regiment, department, or CORPS in a locality or (b) to establish communion and/or communication with an uncommissioned DAO unit, to invite them into the fold of the BCO.
(e) All BCO units discharge the spectrum of obligations prescribed under f(GDP) Axis Y:
- Audit: to hear and determine, ‘oyer et terminer’, matters raised into question, as in a friends meeting, assembly (Knesset) for deliberation, or course of study.
- Assessment: to compare and analyze the myriad factors governing the relative capabilities of various matters, both independently and systemically.
- Assurance: to provide a surety or guarantee, often through the promise of God to humanity or the sacrifice of YHSVH the Christ.

TO ALL TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS COME, SEND GREETINGS AND PEACE:—
Mobilizing and Demobilizing the Office of Traveling Ministry
(a) The Office of Traveling Ministry ‘OTM’ of the Public Friend Antarah (also known as his ‘immediate office’) shall issue bills identifying certain products and services, in receipt of which goods the public shall appropriate funds upon presentment thereof. Otherwise stated, the public may order certain products and services from OTM by presenting these bills to Antarah. These bills shall bear a note upon their face, and these notes may be referred to as ‘vouchers for instruction’ in ‘LP’. […]
(b) In addition to DAIS, DISIS and PEACE Force, a CORPS ‘core’ function of the DOP OTM shall be vested in the hereby established Department of Mobilization and Demobilization ‘DMOB’, which shall mobilize ‘mob’ and demobilize ‘demob’ (a) notes into and out of circulation, (b) field operations of worship and instruction and (c) encampments. All such operations as conducted in the field are done on leave from the Saint Nat’s Temple Headquarters Complex ‘THC’ at Nacotchtank, Ouachita District, which acts as the ‘reservation’. Notes mobilized from reserve to camp are in turn mobilized into the public venue for acceptance and circulation, and are demobilized when such note is remitted, or ‘billed’, to the service provider with due appropriations, whereupon the obligation is performed and the note is redeemed.
(c) “Into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house” (Luke 10:5). “The laborer is worthy of his hire” (Luke 10:7). “Say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you” (Luke 10:9). Thus it is said, the traveling minister shall bring peace wherever he goeth, shall duly discharge his office in receipt of appropriate fees, and shall proclaim the coming of the Lord.
(d) Few understand the foundation upon which N∴S∴ is built, which is the same as that on which is built the Temple, the Temple Bar, the Temple House, the Lodge, and the Fed, namely, the secret knowledge of ‘scribes’ and their sacred ‘scriptures’. While the Grantor issues notes of perceived value, the draft of the note/payment of the bill/redemption of the bond does not materially damage the Grantor and yet accordingly satisfies the obligation. The camp shall not hold more than 10% of the notes held in the reserve. N∴S∴ will profit if it can drive the broad and general circulation of its notes. In this way notes are like advertisements for services like dollars are advertisements for the government’s (people’s) good faith and credit. We know that the value lies not in the faith and credit itself but in the human tendering the instrument to discharge their debt, which instrument is only acquired by and through expending labor/time which is the actual unit of value. Similarly, a certain transaction with the ‘system clearinghouse’ is necessary for a note holder to redeem the value of the note (in our case, in intelligence).
(e) TERMS:
- Adjudgment = the practice of carrying out the functions of a judge, i.e. an officer of the local assembly (knesset).
- Bus = a utilitarian gas vehicle.
- Camp = the establishment of an encampment via the pitching of tent(s) or occupation of time and space or a similar method.
- Clothing = mud cloth, djellaba, cape, kefiyea, tallit, vest.
- Demobilize = to decommission and/or remove materiel, personnel, papers, etc. from use or circulation.
- Horse = light electric vehicle.
- Local (also, Moorings) = the place where an encampment is made.
- Mission = to travel through a friendly or foreign land and/or to administer products and services therein.
- Mobilize = to commission and/or deploy materiel, personnel, papers, etc.
- Notes = slips of paper used to issue bills.
- Policy = Liber Praeceptum ‘LP’ (BLKMKT, 2024).
- Program = the regular course of business, being the standing unprogrammed meeting for worship, with leave from THC to make appointments for instruction.
- Project = the regular praxis of the program.
- Furniture = (a) cot/mat, (b) prayer/yoga mat, (c) folding desk chair, (d) lectern, (e) suitcase containing cape, vest, etc., (f) briefcase containing coverings, flag, gavel, LP, RRO, NT, USC, notes, etc., (g) preparedness bag.
- Testimony = a regular or daily practice for living out one’s principles (e.g. Simplicity, Peace, Integrity, Community, Equity, Stewardship).
- Traveling = (a) to depart or take leave from one’s home, dwelling place, or reservation and sojourn through land and sea; (b) to make an abode in the nomadic Meeting Tent.

(b) Such chip must be installed, connected, or administered to the nodes of the decentralized autonomous organization ‘DAO’ by the Administrator ‘admin’ of the System (i.e. the application of integrated automated systemtheory in praxis).
(c) The mindsoft is located in the C:\ drive of the human body CAMIOR hardware which receives the central nervous system ‘CNS’ input ‘I’.
(d) The admin may administer the Universitas Autodidactus ‘UA’ databus ‘book’ containing the chip to a vast array of hardware, from the individual node or ‘bit’ to the assembly or body politic.
(e) DAISEE (pronounced ‘Daisy’) is the ‘DAIS’, or lectern, of the DAO. Otherwise stated, the theory of the UA, or Universitas Autodidactus, is the decentralized autonomous organization in practice. A DAISEE-chain of mindsoft-configured nodes organized such as to comprise an integrated system is comparable to a blockchain.
(f) This enterprise is the second project to be managed, or administered, by the Department of Peace and Friendship ‘DOP’, following the Peace Enforcement Activity Command Enterprise ‘PEACE Force’.
(g) LP is a large language model dataset for the autonomous intelligence self-learning, self-executing engine of the DAO.

Department of Labor notice of proposed rulemaking could upset labor-management relations
By Antarah Crawley
WASHINGTON, DC — In September 2023, the Wage and Hour Division of the United States Department of Labor (DOL) issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) to amend 29 CFR Part 541, to wit, Defining and Delimiting the Exemptions for Executive, Administrative, Professional, Outside Sales, and Computer Employees.
The Summary section of the proposed rulemaking reads:
In this proposal, the Department of Labor (Department) is updating and revising the regulations issued under the Fair Labor Standards Act implementing the exemptions from minimum wage and overtime pay requirements for executive, administrative, professional, outside sales, and computer employees. Significant proposed revisions include increasing the standard salary level to the 35th percentile of weekly earnings of full-time salaried workers in the lowest-wage Census Region (currently the South)—$1,059 per week ($55,068 annually for a full-year worker)—and increasing the highly compensated employee total annual compensation threshold to the annualized weekly earnings of the 85th percentile of full-time salaried workers nationally ($143,988). The Department is also proposing to add to the regulations an automatic updating mechanism that would allow for the timely and efficient updating of all the earnings thresholds.
Summary
This means that employees of covered employers who make less that $55,068 will no longer be exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLRA) minimum wage and overtime regulations as “white-collar” or executive, administrative, or professional (EAP) employees. The NOPR Executive Summary reads:
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA or Act) requires covered employers to pay employees a minimum wage and, for employees who work more than 40 hours in a week, overtime premium pay of at least 1.5 times the employee’s regular rate of pay. Section 13(a)(1) of the FLSA, which was included in the original Act in 1938, exempts from the minimum wage and overtime pay requirements “any employee employed in a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity.” [1] The exemption is commonly referred to as the “white-collar” or executive, administrative, or professional (EAP) exemption. The statute delegates to the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) the authority to define and delimit the terms of the exemption. Since 1940, the regulations implementing the EAP exemption have generally required that each of the following three tests must be met: (1) the employee must be paid a predetermined and fixed salary that is not subject to reduction because of variations in the quality or quantity of work performed (the salary basis test); (2) the amount of salary paid must meet a minimum specified amount (the salary level test); and (3) the employee’s job duties must primarily involve executive, administrative, or professional duties as defined by the regulations (the duties test). The employer bears the burden of establishing the applicability of the exemption.[2] Job titles and job descriptions do not determine EAP exemption status, nor does merely paying an employee a salary.
Executive Summary
This proposed rulemaking is causing some employers to reclassify employees who have historically been salaried full-time employees (FTE) with “white collar” exemption to wage-hour employees.
These changes are agitating labor-management relations, creating sharper contradiction in the employer-employee dialectic (“struggle of opposites”). Some employers are electing not to raise the compensation of historically EAP employees above the 35th percentile of weekly earnings of full-time salaried workers in the lowest-wage Census Region, even if those employees live in the most expensive regions of the country.
The sharpening of this historical and materialist dialectic is resulting in a proportional increase in union activity and may very well catalyze the decentralized autonomous organization of the Office of the Plebian Tribunes as well as shore up the 1st Memorandum of the College of the Ancient Mystery.
