Banking Crisis Presentation
Basil!

Issues that needed to be addressed but were left hanging!
Marketing Strategy for Blackberry
I never understood in the past why anyone bought a Blackberry other than it was great for typing! What's new?
Can Blackberry actually get it right in the complex marketplace of rapid obsolescence? Fact is that information about strategic choice travels too too rapidly for comfort!
Modern warriors
As if distaste exists for the battlefield today's warriors are under the illusion they won't suffer for their misdeeds. On the contrary, it becomes more difficult each day to hide one's identity! Best policy is peace and good will!

Supreme Court justices conflicted on gay marriage case - The Washington Post
People are right to be confused! American society is easily mature enough to accept same sex marriage. It's a question of maturing attitudes more than anything else.
In 2018 you may wish to drive in a new breed of all electric vehicle
Below are links to videos and articles that will speed you on your way to understanding this breed of electric vehicle! Lots of interest in this energy saving project if it can be scaled up. Aluminium / Lithium are used in futuristic 'Air Battery' driven vehicles using tap water. What is needed is aluminium, water, lithium batteries, oxygen. Better formulations can follow!
Batteries to run electric vehicles:

Income Growth For Bottom 90 Percent Of Americans Averaged Just $59 Over 4 Decades: Analysis
If nominal that implies that in real terms it actually went down? Even in real terms it is slow growth! Measures should always be done in per capita income just to emphasize a point. Income mix indices would be easy to create but economists can be poor statisticians!

What Bill Gates Got Wrong About Why Nations Fail - By Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson | Foreign Policy
Two ? academics on the warpath?
Trying to figure out why nations fail is somewhat silly if you begin with a linear model. In any event, for total social failure there is probably a host of small factors that add up to a pretty big whole. All theories are in danger of being speculation because it's very hard to forecast out of the box and sometimes the smallest things really do have a butterfly effect. In any event, chaos is normally on the rise and there is an Achilles heal in almost all life and organic mechanism dependent so much on balance. Disequilibrium rules as Gates well knows, and to live longest you need to have the soundest of moral principles, whatever these might be?
Bill Gates, for an engineer, is remarkable. I don't understand what the Foreign Policy writers hope to get out of criticism. I do know that they are in danger of being seen as fairly unsophisticated come lately's, even in foreign policy issues!
Does Stephen Harper Work for an American Underground Movement Preparing Canada as Some Sick American Plan
You might wonder! It begins with the basic erosion of values and responsibilities. Too many are missing from the expounded conservatism of Harper's government.
Fair play is a Canadian value as is respect for native people's and their values.
The elimination of CIDA is an ugly side of Harper's government which seems to want the end to democracy. Sure it expounds such values, but its actions are downright autocratic and irresponsible. The buck is worshiped as the highest value in Harper 's scheming!
Pollution is not an intrinsic Canadian value, but it is creeping pollution that seeps from Harper's conservatism!
Creeping conservative side Americanization of Canada. There's little Canadian about Harper's government policies. Who funds the Conservative party these days? I see the worst of values upheld as norms. What has gone wrong?
If it's not a conspiracy of the American right it has to be outright stupidity. Is this a preparation to install American conservative values in Canada? What a shame!

Canadian Political impressions
I used to think the Progressive Conservative Party was good, but they now have unCanadian policies and focus on rubbish!
The NDP now has an amazing leader and I wish them well.
It is important that the Liberal Party regain a majority in Federal Parliament based on Canadian thinking.
I don't want the Conservatives to win another election for a hundred years and believe that I have very good reasons for this. Their leadership is glaringly deficient and seems about as unCanadian as we could have!
What are they thinking?
Matisse impression
Bob!
I have started the Matisse impression and include some images below! It's possible that I have figured out 80 percent of his paint mixes. Starts with old reliables then increases the colours using ones already used mixed in! That's how he tones down the orange. The yellow and blue can be used to create the green with different hues. He then used some old equivalent to a Payne's grey, or mix of something like titanium white and Mars black. Modern colours are so much less effort.
Image below is background to test colours. Loads of fun and must stop myself from getting carried away!

Cell Tower Radiation in Residences and Residential Areas – Effecting Health of Children
Bev!
Congratulations on Minister Paradis's actions to stop the exportation of asbestos. Perhaps, he might focus now on our imports of those wireless radiation devices whose operation constitute long term health hazards, effect premature ageing, and lead to abortive cell division.
Have you wondered why the Ontario landscape looks as ugly as it does or are you under the illusion it is still beautiful and bountiful. Just count the tall trees which are disappearing like the tall masters of yesteryear, like in some parallel Greek tragedy of tomorrow.
Who is listening or taking notice of the negative experience of EMF elsewhere around the world? When does concern turn to action and prevention, or do you believe the message is mythological and the causal linkages imaginatively immaterial?
My operative model says that we need to begin to think of all forms of radiation as hazardous especially as we send people into outer space and across the world in metal boxes that resemble microwave ovens.
Psychologists tell us you don't perceive negative changes that progress slowly. Look around you as an artist would!
Ultra violet sun beds are now considered cancer risks as is artificial ultra violet light.
EMF radiation goes right through you, but is known to alter chromosome numbers/members in DNA and cell environment of telomeres that affect the ageing and cell division processes so important to all forms of life.
There is a reason why nuclear waste is stored in salt. It's damage occurs so rapidly we notice it. We do not notice ultra violet light damage so much except that it costs us megabucks replacing carpets and all forms of natural materials. Our health system costs mega mega bucks a people suffer from thousands of pollutants that directly result from bad environmental choices.
Do we want our children to live in a world without life?
Your carpet ages in the sun. You age in the sun. You also age from within because of radiation. We see it in the case of nuclear energy and radar, but ignore it in the case of communications technology. Makes no long term sense!
Free us from ageing too rapidly or dying painfully.
Experiential thoughts,
Arthur Lake

RF Cell Towers and EMF Radiation affects Evolution
It used to be cosmic rays, but now we have cellular RF radiation unleashing forces that will hasten evolutionary change. Ever wonder how evolution occurred? The amount of water in your system is a distinct disadvantage in evolution towards smaller and smaller creatures apart from those living in water or in caves. Would human beings survive better as one inch tall beings? That would certainly save resources. Problem with RF radiation is that it can go right through you. Creatures in caves might survive. Ever wonder why humans have little hair?
