December 15 Yuwie.comWhile I'm doing property management (adding news, pictures, and messaging my virtual assets on weblo.com, I go socialize at a few websites. One of my favourites, because it pays, is Yuwie. About Yuwie.com At Yuwie I surf through my joined clubs to see what the locals have to say. I even took the initiative and started up my own club http://clubs.yuwie.com/internetjunky/.
Hello, hope you're well! Please come visit me and sign my guestbook...I've started up some cool Yuwie Clubs too! December 05 FrankCC - 12/5/07This is so True, I found this surfing Yahoo Answers! It was written by a young fresh mind out of Michigan. D°GS
12/5/07 I want you to think, think like you have never thought before. Forget what is all around you, and focus on the words at hand. I write to make you think, to make you explore your mind and your deeper thoughts that are not normally discovered. I would like to introduce you to one of my deep thoughts: In today’s society, the word ‘complex’ is thrown around for a myriad of things. Complex meals, complex conversations, complex math problems, etc. Humans are now even calling life fairly complex. But… is it really? Is life really just that complex? If you seem to think that life is intricate, then let me introduce you to a knew state of mind; a new opinion. Take a man, for example, and strip him of everything he has. Take away his store-bought food and water that he sets on his table. Take away the clothes on his back; take away his house. Now that everything has been taken from him, and now that he is just another animal, toss him into the brutal wild. Unleash him into a busy forest or an average congested jungle. What do you think is currently flowing through his mind? It is very simple actually. Three things are rapidly rushing through his mind over and over again, just like any other animal. Food, water, and sleep. Those are his needs, and those are the thoughts constantly flashing through his head. Is this complex? Not very. Do you know see? Humans are the ones who make life so complex and complicated. Do you know how we make things so intricate, complex, difficult? How can we make things simple? I will not tell you, for it is up to your simple mind to explore this on further. It is only my job to introduce the idea. March 18 Global Warming here In Canada? Cool Eh?It's great, we were studying greenhouse effects 20 years ago in college, all of a sudden it's a big emergency? Twenty to 30 years ago, we were promised a 2 - 10% increase in clean fuel technologies by the year 2000. Car manufacturers were legislated by governments to push towards clean energy cars, they had a few decades to do it. What happened, somebody give up?
I've been trying to do my part, I've spend thousands of dollars retrofitting my home to use less hydro electricity. It's a slow process because I work hard for my money. I've been saving up to make clean electricity for my house for 10 years now...it's going to cost ~ $30,000 - 50,000. By the time I build a solar panelled house with a windmill on it, the kids will be planning my funeral.
March 11 "Time's running out for biodiesel plant" ???http://www.northernlife.ca/News/LocalNews/2007/03-09-07-biodiesel.asp
Politics always find ways to spend tax payer's money wisely? Decisions like this always arises multitudes of questions on whether ethics, competence, are the factors of the deals end results? July 09 Liberals Launch Nuclear DebateQueens Park - Monday, June 19, 2006 Too often there's a knock at the door around dinner time and as you rise to And that, of course, is exactly the problem. Unlike Alberta, we can't prick the earth here and make it bleed oil; unlike Quebec, Manitoba or even Newfoundland, we have no capacity for major new hydro-electric dams (small ones, yes). Wind mills, solar panels and other alternative forms of energy will, for the foreseeable future, remain just that. Thought the government also plans to build more natural-gas fueled power capacity, gas prices, like oil, are cyclical and volatile. Coal, the other fossil-fuel alternative, is a dirty word around the McGuinty cabinet table even though many other jurisdictions (including Alberta) are embracing new "clean coal" technologies. But once up and running (there's the rub), nuclear is virtually emissions-free and comparatively cheap when compared to alternatives. Thousands of manufacturing jobs, in auto, forestry, agriculture and steel, will be at risk if the government gets the mix wrong. "When it comes to negotiating with investors like Toyota, one of the things that we have to be able to assure them is reliability simply isn't an issue here in Ontario," Premier Dalton McGuinty said this week in defence of his nuclear plans. "To put this in context, we have at present 14,000 megawatts of capacity coming from nuclear sources," McGuinty said. "We're talking, 20 years from now, of having 14,000 megawatts of capacity from nuclear sources," he said. "What we're really talking about is holding the line on nuclear energy in Ontario." So there he stands, on your doorstep, making his pitch. Since both McGuinty and Conservative leader John Tory agree nuclear must be part of Ontario's electricity mix, barring another 1990-style electoral surprise the question isn't whether the current or next provincial government supports nuclear. What we have isn't so much a real debate about the need for nuclear or nuclear versus alternatives but a political debate to justify government decision making and (in the case of the Liberals) to give voters something to focus on other than broken "Fiberal" promises when they go to the polls next in October, 2007. For the NDP, the nuclear debate is manna from heaven. It invites defection from the soft, granola-eating, left-wing flank of the Liberal Party. Hampton, clearly sensing such opportunity, was in full attack mode this week, accusing the government of using a "back room" cabinet amendment to break Ontario law and exempt Liberal nuclear plans from a provincial environmental assessment. "All of the holier than thou pontificating of Dalton McGuinty, that he was going to stand up for the environment," Hampton scolded before invoking the devil. "Mike Harris would not have done this kind of underhanded, sleazy, slimy, backroom attempt to hide from the public of Ontario." The government, for its part, denies process has been abused. There will be a federal environmental review of the broader plan and later provincial environmental assessments of specific projects. McGuinty also argued Ontarians need to pick their poison. "I don't like nuclear either but at least when it comes to waste you can put it in a box and you can contain it," he said. "The alternative, pump the stuff out of the stack and have it dissipated in the air and suck it into our lungs on an ongoing basis and have it contribute to global warming." "We're making a choice," he said. "We think it's the right choice." Now, shoo him off the doorstep and stop worrying. You'll get the bill later.

April 24 Let's Make Our Own!February 26 Let's Make Our Own!Renewable energy refers to energy resources that occur naturally and repeatedly in the environmental and can be harnessed for human benefit. Examples of renewable energy systems include solar, wind, and geothermal energy. We also get renewable energy from trees and plants, rivers, and even garbage.
The government tells us that we need to conserve energy. I say to them, "Let us generate our own!" Waiting for the Canadian government to adapt incentives for residential renewable energy programs i.e. windmills, solar energy etc..
We heat our home primarely with electric baseboards (low maintenance)...but our Hydro-One bills are high (not to mention all the administration fees, ~ half the bill). We would really like to generate our own electricity to lower our demand from the grid. This is an expensive and almost impossible accomplishment for the average working Canadian. There are alot of "red-tape" and cost with strict rules to be able acquire an alternative source of electricity in ones house in Canada. |
