Nice cuts government!

5,500-plus federal job cut notices sent out – CBC News http://ow.ly/1KoEM8
It’s certainly not nice to have jobs cut! Now we’ll encounter longer lineups in the boarder, immigration, our health inspection becomes more a long waiting line… Do I need to add more? Not that we need to staff more people, we need to put forth some efficiencies, but thus far i’m more confused with our government documents and paperworks than having my questions answered by a knowledgable government staff. Cuts need to be answered by alternative arrangements by the federal government, which we don’t have now, which we do deserve. Yes even I do agree somewhat with the government that our private sector does not provide much of the solutions: hiring to replace to do the work of the government.

Nearly 140 years after Canadian-born scientist John Murray began gathering the first comprehensive data on sea water temperatures around the world, a team of U.S. and British researchers has revisited the pioneering discoveries from the famous 1872-76 voyage of the HMS Challenger to create the clearest picture yet of the steady warming trend now threatening the planet’s marine environment.

Happy New Year 2012

midori01 — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 06:57:32 +0000

Another fresh new year is here . . . Another year to live! To banish worry, doubt, and fear, To love and laugh and give!

This bright new year is given me To live each day with zest . . . To daily grow and try to be My highest and my best!

I have the opportunity Once more to right some wrongs, To pray for peace, to plant a tree, And sing more joyful songs! – William Arthur Ward
