Will baseball never change for the better?
2009-10-30 22:11:00 Baseball used to be my favorite sport. That was way back when it really was the national pastime. Pro football has that distinction now. The NFL gets it. I doubt the MLB owners ever will. I haven't seen a baseball game since my retirement from WLS-TV (Ch 7) nearly four years ago. The sport no longer exists for me, although I covered it for some 40 years, and was a fan long before that. Cubs centerfielder Andy Pafko was my boyhood idol. I have many fond memories. I cut school so I could watch the NL playoff game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants in 1951. Got to see Bobby Thomson hit the "home run heard 'round the world."...

Climate change: 20% of China is now desert.
2009-09-19 10:54:00 Sean Gallagher is a photojournalist living in China. With the support of Pulitzer Center for Crisis Reporting to highlight the impact of desertification in China.Almost 20% of China's land is now desert, affecting 400 million people. In Western China over one million acres of fertile land turn into desert. Per year. Last year they suffered a peak drought.Climate change, wind and water erosion, industrialization, agriculture, untimely policy changes, you name it.China's desertification is not only a problem for the Chinese. It impacts the world as a whole. I am not talking about what 1,000,000 acres of desert mean to the world's climate, alone: the more fertile land turns into sand, the more China is looking for agriculture land abroad, competing with European biofuel companies and Arab countries trying to secure their food production too. And money buys land in Africa. Easily. Even if this means they need to reduce their own food production.Video courtesy Sean Gallagher. Discover...
TOOLS for change! Who is ready?
2009-09-17 21:40:00 I was reading a story of a women recently, and how she is dealing with the guilt of never telling her father she loved him before he passed away. The dynamics of her childhood were not of a kisses and loads of hugs atmosphere. If I were guessing there was a true lack of that, and that to a child is a sense of comfort. We all know some people just aren't capable of it for some reason, but it sounds like this and other dynamics caused distance between her and father during her childhood.It sounds in part like a familiar story of a young girl rebelling, and finding herself abused, abandoned, and pregnant. She was struggling at this point, and trying to get her life back on track. The distanced relationship with her father changed one day with a phone call. He wanted to help, and first and foremost? He wanted to babysit that grandchild, and wanted HER to go out and do something for herself. She needed a break, and he clearly saw that. It was the start of their rebuilding, rene...

Climate change: The girl who silenced the world for 5 minutes
2009-09-16 18:59:00 With the media heating up for the December Climate Change Summit in Denmark, it is time to for some reflection.Does the name "Severn Cullis-Suzuki" mean anything to you? Severn was 12 when in 1992, she raised money to attend the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. She spoke to the summit members in a speech which became famous. A speech which -sadly enough- could have been given today. It makes one wonder what progress really happened in the past 17 year.Do we actually make progress on protecting our planet for the sake of our children, and their children? In an age where Green Goes Commercial, where corrupt companies like Monsanto and Cargill start dominating our food chain, and chase the food prices up so the poor no longer have access to food. A world where Western companies buy up fertile land in Africa to grow biofuel crops so less land becomes available for food agriculture?Did we make progress, or are we still sliding downhill?Check out the most recent news and blogposts about th...

Condoms cheapest way to fight climate change
2009-09-12 12:27:00 Condoms :cheapest way to fight climate changeCondoms are the cheapest way to reduce carbon emissions, claims a controversial new report.According to the report for the UK's Optimum Population Trust, putting the brake on global population growth would be five times cheaper than any other method of tackling the world's greenhouse gases.The study, which was compiled by the London School of Economics, found every 4-pound extra spent on family planning for the next 40 years would reduce global CO2 emissions by a tonne. It would cost 19 pounds to achieve the same result with low-carbon technologies, reports The Sun.OPT chairman Roger Martin said: "It's always been obvious that total emissions depend on the number of emitters - as well as their individual emissions."The taboo on mentioning this has made the whole climate change debate so far somewhat unreal."United Nations data indicates that family planning could reduce unintended births by 72 percent, trimming the world''s populatio...

Price Rate of Change Indicator
2009-08-25 15:27:00 Price rate of change or ROC indicator is an important technical analysis tool for measuring an instrument's price changes. ROC is widely used by short-term and swing traders to find oversold and overbought levels, to analyze trend strengths and to find trend changes. The price rate of change indicator resembles volume rate of change or VROC indicator, but is blind to volume changes.Price rate of change is expressed in both points and percentage. It is calculated as the difference between current price and the price ?n? periods ago.ROC (point) = Price today ? Price 'n' days ago.When calculated in percentage, the above ROC value is divided by the number of periods and then multiplied by 100.ROC (%) = (Price today ? Price 'n' days ago) / 'n') x 100ROC rises with rise in current price and falls with fall in price. Many traders use a center line (a 0 line or 50 point line) for easy evaluation and to get better results. The normal time-period for ROC indicator is 12 days (short-ter...

Textbooks To Go Digital – Will It Change Schooling As We Know It?
2009-08-18 11:05:00 As a kid, I would love the week preceding the school reopening, when you buy all new books for the new term. I can speak for most of you when I say that there is something magical about the way new textbooks smell. Well, those things might soon be history, at least in Australia. Schools in Australia could soon be moving towards the introduction of e-textbooks, which would mean the students would only be carrying ebook readers that will contain the chapters from all subjects in an ebook format. While the idea definitely sounds exciting from a student’s perspective – no more heavy bags, and possibly also lower expenditure on new books; it also raises other concerns. A trial done at a Melbourne High School raised problems like slower data loading, Â slower page turning and very few titles that were available for free. Â But the bigger problem comes from copyright issues. ”Digital rights management restrictions at the point of sale have been developed for individuals ...

Change is a Law of Nature

One of the most beautiful aspects of the Baha’i Writings in my view is that religious law can be flexible and adapt. “The second classification or division comprises social laws and regulations applicable to human conduct. This is not the essential spiritual quality of religion. It is subject to change and transformation according to the exigencies and requirements of time and place.” (Address by Abdu’l Baha Abbas before Congregation Emmanu-El, San Francisco, Cal. (Martin A. Meyer, Rabbi) Saturday, October 12, 1912. - Star of the West, Vol. 3, No. 13, p. 3) Abdu’l-Baha places principles such as justice and equality into the first classification, as part of what all religion is concerned with and which does not change.

Volume Rate of Change or VROC Indicator
2009-08-12 15:00:00 Volume Rate of Change (VROC), also known as ROCV, is an important indicator of gauging an instrument's volume changes. VROC is most useful when analyzing a security's ability to cross supports/resistances, trend changes and trend strengths and when analyzing formations like peaks and foundations. Volume rate of change indicator resembles price rate of change indicator, but it is blind to price movements.Volume Rate of change is calculated by dividing the amount of volume changed in the last 'n' periods, by the volume 'n' periods ago.VROC = (Volume today - Volume 'n' days ago) / Volume 'n' days agoPositive values of VROC indicate that the present volume is higher than the volume 'n' days ago; and negative values vice versa. Positive values are indications that the current bullish/bearish trend is still strong, and negative values are indications of the weakening of existing trends.VROC is plotted below the price chart. When trading with volume rate of change indicator, it...
