Almost all people in the developed world understand that there are millions that don't have access to internet ... and yet are oblivious to the huge number that don't have access to even radio. - Nick in Manila

Philippine massacre witness talks: 'We just followed orders'
@lattex All things considered, that is a definite yes.
Ugh. Our place in Cagayan de Oro flooded last night. Knee deep.
Ugh. Double-ugh. Apple Singapore refuses to honor my MBA warranty for a "hinge failure." They seem to not believe my story. This will cost me US$700. They looked for excuses to not pay - for their own well-known hinge flaw. If indeed I had busted the hinge, I'd have no problem. But this hurts.

@bigenya LOL. Well at least *I* enjoyed those!

"Edwin - I don't understand the increased risk that the IPP sees. The schedule is still submitted to WESM on a day-ahead basis as a bilateral schedule, no? Whatever risks arise due to "scheduling" can be passed on to off-taker." - Nick in Manila

I'm headed home tomorrow to Cagayan de Oro for the first time in SEVEN WEEKS! - Nick in Manila from Bookmarklet

So you're Mindanaon Mr Nick :-) - Kakuei Kintana Araral
This $2.50 a bottle Spanish table wine, blanco, is fabulous with a Fuji apple.
@filipinovoices Ha. Buffett's bet on BN was a play on fundamentals. Philippine power projects are a play on political connections.
Is the Maasim coal-fired plant struggling? Still looking to line up the equity portion, it seems. And there are a million reasons why that might be. But w/o equity, can't get debt. w/o debt can't start substantial construction. - http://www.mindanews.com/index...
A bit of a Joycean break-up letter on YTMND. Fabulous. - http://youmakemetouchyourhands...

A 2-person advisory business is NOT VERY SCALABLE! Clearly need to raise pricing.
The great experiment has started: Syncing my idisk with JungleDisk 3.0 Workgroup.
Whoa. Twitterrific does not pick up retweets from those I'm following if they used Twitter's new Retweet feature, apparently.
Anybody as smart as Pacquiao in the ring (operations and execution) and in fight preparation (planning) has a lot on the ball.
"It would be as if any discussion of intercontinental navigation required a preliminary discussion of why the evidence shows that the earth is not flat" - http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~cook...
Ugh. Economic theory. So, is "risk aversion" different from a "fear of uncertainty"? This is why i run away from economists - an important discussion, wish I could grasp it, but not one I relish entering into. I want a quick fix, please. - Nick in Manila
I did more reading of the non-economic portion: http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~cook... I like that. I understand that. Yes, it's usually risk vs risk and it depends on the point of view you take. Bingo - "risk aversion" is indeed not a useful frame for these things. - Nick in Manila
Just realized the American word dang doesn't translate here, where it's a girl's name and pronounced with a short "a".
Radio jock Mo Twister's questions were intelligent & insightful. Hillary's answers were mostly inane. - http://newsbreak.com.ph/index...
Fwd: Quotes on necessity of public voluntarism. - http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment... (via http://friendfeed.com/nick-s-...)
"the liberal John Stuart Mill who said that without the habit of spontaneous voluntary action, citizens "have their faculties only half developed" and the equally liberal Alexis de Tocqueville who warned the independence of individuals went when they "lost the notion of combining together"." - Nick in Manila
@JimNichols Mostly diesel I think. Some hydro.
I wanted to replace one of my Macs early - but I didn't want it to be the MBA!! Dang.
Ah! Model Penelope Tree (not to be confused with "the Twig"). And classic 60s A-line mini and Alice-in-Wonderland-ish pose. - Nick in Manila
