Noble Peace Gets Some Press!
Posted on October 1, 2010 by evan_austin
Check out the front page (and A3) from this morning’s Ojai Valley News!:
We remain excited about the community’s choice of John Broesamle as the recipient of our award, and are gratified by his appreciation of it, and the connections made as part of the process! There were two significantly new features of the prize and process this year: first, that the nomination and voting process was much more transparent and open, and second, the inclusion of a cash donation toward the work being recognized, in order to use our community’s generous treasure to materially support said work. Below, two letters of acknowledgment and appreciation. This IS culture-changing stuff!

NPP Voting Time!
Posted on September 7, 2010 by evan_austin
The nominees for the 2010 Noble Peace Prize are in, and now it’s TIME TO VOTE!
[PLEASE NOTE!] In the spirit of “being the change we wish to see”, this is an Instant Runoff Voting system designed to give voters more choice, and wherein THE NUMBER ONE is your FIRST CHOICE. Some issues with the voting system have been noted: specifically, an error message that warns of the need for a “unique entry”. i’m working on fixing this. If you have voted but received an error, and are concerned about whether your vote was submitted properly, you can email me your IP Address and i can verify whether i’ve received a vote from your computer.
