Active Alert World: June 2008
http://activealertworld.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Random jottings about local and international events, politics, foibles and ecology. Saturday, June 28, 2008. Which version of history? People and history forgotten? I have been studying for some history courses the last few months. It has been fascinating discovering the way that events are filtered through the fog of history. We look at something like the civilization of the Minoans on Crete. As far as I can figure out there is almost no decipherable records on these these guys. So my point is that if ...

Observations on politics, history and art. Plus random notes and things learned. Thursday, May 05, 2011. Index to Athabasca University essay assignments. From early in 2008 to early in 2011 I dedicated much of my time to taking courses at Athabasca University. I completed eleven courses and withdrew from a couple more. My general aim was to get the Bachelor Degree that I should have achieved in my twenties. (Oh well). Course: HIST203 Western Art I. Essay: A description of the Minoan Snake Goddess. Course...

Thoughts on software development, business, finance and career aspirations. Sunday, October 26, 2008. End of this Blog (Concentrating Efforts Elsewhere). When I started this blogging thing I thought that I would keep the different sizes of my personality in different blogs. (Just like I once had several web sites for different purposes). Instead I am reverting to just two blogs. If you want to keep track of me in the future then please visit:. Sunday, October 26, 2008. Sunday, October 05, 2008.

Thoughts on software development, business, finance and career aspirations. Saturday, June 28, 2008. I should mention something about my last adventure in programming. (Oh why do these things always have to be an adventure? I moved to Edmonton and the job only lasted three month for some strange reason! In the interest of one day getting another software job I won't go deep into what was wrong at the company. But I must say that they really. Of course I was only hired as a lowly software developer even t...

Active Alert World: August 2008
http://activealertworld.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Random jottings about local and international events, politics, foibles and ecology. Monday, August 11, 2008. Henry A Wallace and Thomas E Dewey. I was reading some Internet articles on picking VP candidates when I stumbled across the career of Henry A Wallace. Wallace's apparent love of Communism in the late 1940s; and his bid for election with the Progressive Party in 1948. According to Wikipedia, his. Imagine what things he might have tried if he had been VP when Roosevelt died in 1945! By Thomas E De...

Observations on politics, history and art. Plus random notes and things learned. Friday, August 03, 2007. Reading unusual books: Man-Eaters of Kuamon. I am an eclectic book collector and reader. Now there are popular readings - everyone seems to be reading Harry Potter - but that is rare. I suspect that more people read Rowling's books so that they are ready for the next movie than read them for the shear pleasure. Reading seems more of a fad than a pleasure. The problem in recent years is of course retr...

Thoughts on software development, business, finance and career aspirations. Thursday, July 24, 2008. New Alberta web pages: Edmonton. I have finally made some Alberta and Edmonton related updates to my NotSorry.com web site. In June I added a bunch of photos of the local area, especially the onion-domed Ukrainian churches. Yesterday I added some photos of the local weather. I have been having good success at taking thunderstorm photos. Have a look at www.NotSorry.com. Thursday, July 24, 2008.

Observations on politics, history and art. Plus random notes and things learned. Saturday, April 12, 2008. Montana Meth Project and the Doors of Perception. I came across the Montana Meth Project. This morning. Have you seen their powerful adverts? And Nancy Reagan's Just Say No. We have have a situation where Meth and Crack additions are common in the suburban backyards of not only NJ and NY but also MT, AB and BC. Writing this lead me to some online reading about the life and death of Neal Cassiday.

Observations on politics, history and art. Plus random notes and things learned. Monday, November 13, 2006. Kurt Vonnegut / Getting old. I was just reading a Wikipedia article about Kurt Vonnegut. As far as I am aware he is the greatest living American novelist. He was born in 1922. He is getting old. That Wikipedia article has a quote:. That's what I feel right now. I've written books. Lots of them. Please, I've done everything I'm supposed to do. Can I go home now? Of course, there are billions alive t...
