The Down Pour and the Rest

I had a lot of other things planned to talk about when I got around to it. I've been busy because of the "state of calamity" a super downpour that even flooded the elevated area of the Condo I live in. So many people are left homeless and so much has been wasted. My mother in law's house was flooded, with the 1st floor being filled up to 5ft of water in less than 3 hours. Accounting . I was supposed to have gotten to write, but I was worried about my home work and my social obligations. My homework by the way is accounting and the book I'm using fails to live up to its Preface of Claims: "As an introductory course where most (if not all) of the students have no prior training in accounting." It fails to deliver. I would write an Amazon Review about it, when I'm done with the class, so that I don't screw my passing chances up when someone might choose to read my review of the book. I think I would be better off with a Dummies Book. The book is Acc...

Studying, (bout time)

Reading up on Entrep and it is pretty much what I expect it to be. Of course, I do remember that it was a very long process of discover of what I wanted to do and what I can do. I won't go exactly on Entrep cause you can read books and theories about it everywhere. One particular thing I've realize but only up to now have found the best way to communicate is exactly why being well rounded matters (and why being able to identify your Intelligences and Strengths are important). In the shortest possible way to explain it (for me at least): One gains the ability to shift ground quickly and towards a number of choice strengths appropriate to the challenge. Being well rounded has advantages as one tries to accomodate new skills with previously learned patterns. I have many personal patterns going on in my head, particularly from gaming. The Munchkin in me has found the puzzle that has an answer with multiple fold rewards- business (or generally growth). One common mistake my previous...

Things to Consider when Voting

I've heard of the Platform of Gibo (Teodoro) but Promises are just air. When reading into your politicians, consider their motives more than their promises. Look at the consistency of their actions over their vows to change. Have you every changed much of your life? Ask yourself how much you have change and how much you have stayed the same. Its hard to change certain aspects of our life. So we look to the consistency of our candidates for the best clues if there is credibility to their claim. In respects with motives- all candiates have one motive in mind (power). Promises are great, but silence and consistency is better. I like that Villar didn't say quite exactly he was going to pursue or protect the Arroyos. Lets not even put that in the table, because I'd rather tackle it when we get there. Having not promised or acted in a way commitedly protective of the Ruling Administration is an awesome bit of statesmanship. Its close to being honest but without sabotaging one...

Why I will certainly not vote for Teodoro

He is the Arroyos Standard Bearer, If you want justice then you will certainly not get it with this loyal Dog of the Arroyos. His wife, a congress woman (and former beauty queen) is a ChaCha thrall, which emphasizes how loyal this guy is. Yeah, he maybe "smarter" and better qualified than Noynoy but between the two Noynoy actually is starting to grow bigger balls then Teodoro. Noynoy is actually facing off the Catholic Church, who was quick to sell him and was just as quick to attack him after Noynoy's RHB support. I guess the thing about being where he is, Noynoy only owes 2 people for his position: and they are both dead. Still I'm unchanged in my decision. I'd rather Villar run, there is a better chance of him serving the Arroys on a silver platter for the public to distract from his own inconsitencies and to sate the lust for justice of the people. Since the RHB is an overwhelmingly popular Bill the Church's horns are showing Padre . Playing political gam...

Why I'm learning to Fight

I like guns. But I never have (and never will) own one. I think it's just too dangerous to have one around the house, even with a lot of care. We're only human after all. I used to play airsoft. I had the MP5, M4A1, and the P90... :) - Harmless Harmless, its people like you who should own guns. That's the irony about them if you've heard the two cases of accidental gun death in the country months ago. Its the people who understand and are constantly aware of how much they are a responsibility who deserve the right to own one. In my understanding of the history of how meritocracies evolved, it was the freemen class's main defining characteristic was their right to bear arms. Comparing the history of France and England it was typical case study of how the critical mass of armed citizens were able to shift the balance of power towards meritocracies since power shifted from the elites towards the greater masses. In Game Theory, its like an exercise in equilibrium. ...

Joe Wilson Disrespecting Obama because he's Black

How come when people dissenting Bush's Policies (in the proper forums) are being unamerican but when people are dissenting Obama in a solemn event its Free Speech? http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/10/us/politics/10wilson.html?_r=1&hp http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/09/09/AR2009090903585.html?hpid=topnews I think in light of the health care controversy or misinformation, the hecklers of Obama feel like they can disrespect him cause he's black. Why of all presidents was he being attacked so readily and callously. I've read both the articles and I wasn't there BUT this stinks badly of Racism. Of all the times such outbursts had gone without a severe enough reprimand, creating confusion and sowing panic THIS outburst just put matters on a whole other light. This guy is basically saying: Obama what's the worse you can do, HA! that admittance of power and the way Joe Wilson CHANGED the entire center and focus of the debate to his vagrant act ...
