memory of the past?
The Asian time online version of the current finance black hole that suck all the money from the Fed and Treasury dept does not seem to make any sense.

The era of 70s –economic reality
The history of planning from Soviet Union to United State during the FDR time to current planning monopoly in the corp world is a very interest development.

Carry trade is not only happen with the Japanese low interest rate to stimulate the stagnation taking place in that country, it is also happen in USA when the Fed lower interest rate to stimulate more borrowing from the banking sector, not the consumers’ sake but for the investors or speculators’ sake. Since the investment-banks [...]

Bill Mahr had a knock on the Warren Jeff Mormon case in Texas. He said that this is a case of Government bully of religion group. It is because if there small membership.

Portpourri of thought
I use to take the psychologist experiments for grant. They are scientific proved as experiment goes. They I come across the idea that they are dealing with human being and the nature of human being is very complex and not always under the same condition as the lab experiments when scientists had them carried out.

Monk
Monk meditation research is denounced by another religion group or the scientist of a different brand as some sort of waste of scientific budget. I come across such as ranting before in media. This is a belief that the monks or religion is using science as a tool to brainwashing for people or convert them [...]
Geopolitic
The declaration of independence of Kosovo is a historical event of the world. Hopefully this would not lead to more fighting of separatist groups around the world.
The mention of many small region clamoring for independence at the southern border of Russia leads me to think there may be the future trouble spots.
There is another point [...]
Flash in the pan?
Laziness of handle materials and administrative tasks result in forgetting to pay bill to the power company. What a lesson in life. These are boring chores however, one still has to face every month.

The World Without Us
Alan Weisman is the author of this book. This coincides with the latest show on Nation Geography about how the nature recapture the earth after we had long gone.
He is just a writer not a specialist in plants (known as botanist.) He talks about plants all over the world. This is not only the North [...]
Henry Liu?
The writing of this author is long and heavy-going. There are too many technical terms in it. What I’m thinking about is when feasible, have his writing edited and put in more plain and easy-going English. Even better using my own words and understanding of the content and writing something similar using his materials as [...]

Bail out again?
Some one says that the current subprime mess is because of deregulation in the financial industry. The financial engineering is the subject the regulatory agency has no idea what to do with. They are invented so quick and so complicated that regulatory agency is always ten steps behind.

Lee?
The book entitled “Intro to Topological Manifold” is pretty clear indeed. This is a result of seeing so many other books on AT that offers nothing about major concept of manifold. This is the missing book that I have been looking for so far.

Refugees, immigrants?
The Cuban refugees, freedom seekers, immigrants, and the south American refugees, freedom seekers, immigrants have different fate because of the political expedience. Cuban refugees are welcome once they set foot on the “promise land.” However, the Haitian and South American refugees, immigrants would be treated rather harshly because the bad elements in the group had [...]

I was wondering what people are going to think about all these brouhaha in the presidential campaign. The problem with the campaign reform and the fact the Edward is not taking any money from the lobbies group (sic) and fat cat associations, are never mentioned, by media at all.Did some critics claim he accepted money support from trial [...]

The description and proof of Pi(circle)=Z
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/The_fundamental_group
This is most confusing description that I have seen so far. The given information is never clearly stated. All the symbols and notations are ambiguous. The argument is esoteric. So far I have a hard time following it.
This is because the author tries to prove that map from is a isomorphic. This sounds [...]
