Imagining the 10th Dimension

This is a rather interesting flash video/animation that seeks to explain those dimensions above 4, specifically all the way up to 10.

Somedays thinking above 2 is tough enough. On that note, perhaps follow this link to learn a little about the classic novel "Flatland" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatland.

Quote of the Day

And sorry, this is just so fitting I couldn't leave it to be randomly generated with the quotes above:

"Bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money and control credit, and with a flick of a pen they will create enough to buy it back."

- Sir Josiah Stamp, former President, Bank of England

The SubPrime Primer & An Honest Politician

 There's been a lot of press lately about the banking collapse in the US.

And the second video shows a rather intelligent response to the planned bailout: 


Of course, it's could only happen in the US, right? Lol. Think again. Firstly realize that Canadian banks have remained conspiciously silent on the topic - they have rules of non-disclosure, so don't have to tell us how deeply they're in this mess together. But try and figure out how within the past 10 years house prices have went up by a factor of 5 and more times. And figure out where all these home buyers got their money. Are you earning 5 times what you were 10 years ago?
