{ Thought of the Day: I just watched ‘GasLand II” the HBO documentary-movie, most of the way through, for about the tenth time. Why are governmental ‘mouthpieces’ still tring to say that Shale Gas is: (1) a good thing, and, (2) the best way to go?\u00a0 The best scientific evidence reported on in that movie showed that there is more than enough wind power available to generate 5 times our needed electricity- virtually free- forever- & it is renewable, does not pollute, does not poison your water supply. -And if the wind slows down, solar photovoltaics can fill in the gaps. And then there’s always hydro-electric and maybe even tidal generation possible.\u00a0 The only thing ‘wrong’ with these renewable technologies is the fact that no greedy corporation has found a way to control them enough with lies and propaganda to raise the price high enough to keep billions of people in low-wage-slavery for the foreseeable future. \u00a0 —djo— }<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

-Updated- $550M Job creation promise questioned in new PBO report <\/span>\u00a0 { “PBO” = Parliamentary Budget Office. — “It was touted as a job-creator in a tough job market, but new evidence suggests the Conservative plan to cut Employment Insurance premiums for small business won’t achieve its stated goal of making it easier for employers to hire new workers. – And the head of a key lobby group acknowledges the decision by the government may be linked to other political considerations. – In a new report, the parliamentary budget officer, Jean-Denis\u00a0Fr\u00e9chette, says the small business job credit\u00a0<\/span>announced last month by Finance Minister Joe Oliver<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>would generate only 800 new jobs over two years\u00a0\u2014 200 new full-time equivalent jobs in 2015 and 600 new jobs in 2016. – That would mean each new position will\u00a0cost the government \u2014 and the taxpayer \u2014 $687,500. – The head of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business called the\u00a0PBO’s\u00a0figures “puzzling.” – “That seems really really thin,” Dan Kelly told CBC News Wednesday. –\u00a0 “Our own estimate at\u00a0CFIB\u00a0was that it would create 25,000 person years of employment. A different measure, but still an awful lot more than the\u00a0PBO\u00a0is estimating. And we’re trying to figure out why their estimate is so thin.” – CFIB\u00a0lobbied for EI cut<\/strong> – But Kelly also said the government’s decision came only after his organization had lobbied heavily\u00a0for a cut to\u00a0EI\u00a0premiums\u00a0as a form of quid pro\u00a0quo, to placate small business owners enraged over two new policies: new anti-spam legislation, and a drastic reduction in temporary foreign worker permits. – Kelly called those “dumb decisions” on the part of the government. –‘It’s another example of Conservative politics triumphing over public policy’<\/span>– Liberal Finance Critic Scott Brison – <\/cite>In a separate interview with CBC Radio last month, Kelly recalled the message his organization took to the government in a lobbying session. – “As a result of (those decisions) we said to the government look, you guys have made some really boneheaded moves over the past number of months; we need to see a couple of positive things come forward. (We) suggested specifically, progress on Employment Insurance,” he said in an interview with CBC Radio’s Ontario Today Sept. 30. – “And the good news is the\u00a0EI\u00a0fund has returned into balance… and the government has decided to move ahead with it and we give them credit for that,” he told host Rita Celli. – Kelly also said small businesses are happy with the EI measure both as a job creation tool, and as a tax reduction measure. – Liberal Finance critic Scott Brison says the measure was a poorly-conceived attempt to placate one group for political purposes. –\u00a0 “The Conservatives were looking for some bone to throw towards the small business community to make up for the aggravation,” he said.\u00a0 – “They didn’t think this out, it’s another example of Conservative politics triumphing over public policy.” – Brison said the program contains a disincentive to hire by limiting the benefit to companies with 15 employees or less, and will simply cost too much. The Liberals have countered with a proposal to grant EI premium “holidays” for companies that first create jobs. – The job credit will cut EI premiums, starting in 2015, for businesses with an annual contribution of less than $15,000. – The government says 780,000 business in Canada are expected to benefit from the credit in 2015. – “This is real money that a small business can use to help defray the costs of hiring new workers and to take advantage of emerging economic opportunities,” said Finance department spokeswoman St\u00e9phanie Rubec. – To make his calculations, the budget watchdog used the Finance Department’s own EI premium rate multiplier to estimate the increase in employment “as a result of higher after-tax business incomes.” – The small business job credit is not the only problem identified in the EI system by the PBO report. – “We’ve made a number of observations in the report that the way the program is governed now is creating a lot of problems. First of all, it’s not predictable…it’s not transparent. What we have suggested is the government should provide an estimate of the cost of the rates that they have put in place,” said Assistant PBO Mostafa Askari.”\u00a0 —djo— }<\/p>\n

At many events, people aren’t even looking at the stage; they are watching through their screens. – HTC thinks there’s a better way \u2014 and they’re betting you won’t mind carrying around an extra device about the size of a small candy bar. With the new Re camera gripped discreetly in your hands, you can take stills and video while still experiencing the event directly \u2014 not through a screen or viewfinder. – No more annoying people behind you by blocking their views with your phone or tablet. (In fact, no one may realize you’re recording at all. Hmm.HTC\u00a0<\/span>says the Re will at least make a sound when you take a picture or start recording.) – Many analysts are suggesting the new camera is a competitor to popular devices made by\u00a0GoPro, which are designed to capture personal experiences ranging from cycling to diving. – The Re marks HTC’s effort to expand beyond smartphones. Its flagship HTC One smartphone earns high praise from users and tech reviewers but the company’s global market share is tiny compared with Apple’s and Samsung’s. According to IDC, HTC’s market share was less than 2 per cent in the second quarter, the latest period available.”\u00a0 —djo— }<\/p>\n
