It depends on what kind of karma chips the DPD--& Sheriffs--have, but here's my bright idea in the last day or so in terms of what I think should be next for the city infrastructure that's overdue--a LEED-certified, masterfully crafted, generously constructed Dubuque Law Enforcement Center. I saw a lot of White, bright, natural light with high-class, well-chosen materials with nothing superfluous, nothing superficial--highly efficient, possibly specialized in Security without losing the personal, good-things-about-Dubuque feel, including metaphorical handshakes, not more inundation of robotic technology that's already making everybody worse, with relationships that reflect it.
During my tour of the building, it came to me right away that they needed a workout facility that mirrored those attributes,including a Mind-Body-Spirit studio that allowed for the incorporation of Movements Arts into Training, possibly with enhanced Spa capabilities.
And it literally just occurred to me that there could be something like a somehow-eco-friendly Hollywood Walk of Fame outside, with sparkles in the sidewalk, except the "stars" or symbol chosen would reflect the history of Law Enforcement in the City, with names and a phrase, a nickname, length of service, or whatever that would adequately reflect the REALLY good men & women in blue (or brown) who served best--the more locally meaningful, the better.
Inside, there could be an interactive "Yearbook" feature, showing headshots, landmark images, & the names & dates of service of every employee that has ever been employed by the Center. PC, flat screen, projections on the wall were coming to me, but none of them seemed exactly right. Even photo albums could work, but that could get space-consuming over time and couldn't be preserved as well, potentially, depending on how they're held.
And plants, potentially with medicinal properties.
And if you think I'm talkin' stank a** mar-i-juana, you've spent too much time around addicts who mis-sold you and are profiting from your shrunken head. Shamen & True Healers know better.
All of this should have more of an executive feel without losing groundedness, reflecting ever-higher bars of performance aspired to via all components of being by the guys and ladies within.
Before we know it, your everyday officer will be more like an enlightened Seal than not...
God's Will on it.
And then people power & movement on it.
It's the only way that type of Manifestation works.
