To be read carefully and slowly several times: "In any weather, at any hour of the day or night, I have been anxious to improve the nick of time, and notch it on my stick too; to stand on the meeting of two eternities, the past and future, which is precisely the present moment; to toe that line. "

Advertising and Me and Albert Lasker
Albert Lasker (1880-1952) is often considered to be the founder of modern advertising. Had the idea that it is a Contract - people watch the ad and they get something in return (a free TV show). There has to be a two way benefit of some kind for it to be effective.
Good ads:
Bad ads:
This feels like a good summary of how I feel about advertising.
Good ads:
- Spondored tv shows
- Anything where the audience is not feel short changed
- ads that are entertaining
Bad ads:
- Bill boards (nothing in return for the blocked view)
- Adding ads in the movie threatre (nothing for the time spent and paid for the Movie)
- Ad ads to rental movings (nothing for the time spent and paid for the video)
- Shortening content and longer ads (anyone can take an olive out of the Jar, but sooner or later you need to do something real to add value)
This feels like a good summary of how I feel about advertising.

Kindly please
Is each act of kindness really a desparate reaching out of a solely self centered sole?
Gaia for today
Mother earth, living breathing.
Is the earth itself a living organism, not just the "life", the green and the breathing stuff but everything the rocks the volcano, the tectonic plates.
Negative feedback loops, stabilize and control, Positive feedback loops create change rapidly. Tipping points exist when negative feedback loops breakdown or become positive loops.
Gaia hypothesis - is an ecological theory that proposes that the living matter of planet Earth functions like a single organism. It was first formulated in the 1960s by the independent research scientist James Lovelock. See also Lynn Margulis and Lewis Thomas.
What a great thought (or more that a thought). Let me believe and behave as the earth is life, please respectfully

Little Miss Sunshine
Was not sure what to expect. The reviews seems good, but being naturally suspicious, would it be just to quiet and corny.
Surprisingly no.
Noticed some slow silences that took me out of the show and the performance seemed predictable, but the story is great, not to ridiculous at all, especially Olive (Abigail Breslin)
Overall not to be taken seriously. Genuine feel good movie
