Wladimir Klitschko vs David Haye July 2, 2011



Well blown up Cruiser Weight David Haye has talked himself into a big payday and possible smack down verse the 6'6 Wladimir .
**
Haye's only chance is Wladimir reputation for a glass jaw and stamina problems in the past mixed in with Wladimir's advancing age of 35.
**
I will be pulling for Wladimir as I have been a fan of both Klitschko brothers since I have been started following their careers many years back.

AUCHTUNG! David Bowie's Berlin Triology


Was driving the city today when I heard David Bowie's famous song "Hero's come up on my MP3 player.
Hero's is on the David Bowie Album Hero's which along with Low and Lodger are known as the Berlin Trilogy as David Bowie was living in West Berlin at the time of their inception, Bowie was also hanging out with Iggy Pop at the time who also recorded an of interesting albums in Berlin which I believe was Iggy's album the Idiot.

This is my favorite tree in San Francisco the Melaleuca Tree



I love these trees , They are from Australia, The trees have gone on to become pests in places like Florida, but they are beautiful on the San Francisco Streets, I will post more as I have time to take pictures of them.

Been using one of these phones lately Optimus-LG-P509.

Using one of these phones is really a lesson in modernity for me.  I really don't like them when using it for my internet access the screen is very small and it is hard to type on.  None the less I will work with it for a while just to familarize myself with it.
**
With my limited knowledge of these things it appears to use the Android operating system  is based on the Linux kernel which sounds pretty cool.
**
I used to want an iphone but to get the phone plan with AT+T was just too complicated for my needs.
**
I think the ideal set up for me would be a small netbook with internet card and and small cell phone and that is what I will strive to buy next time I acquire some hi tech communication gadgetry.

San Francisco Cab drivers went on strike for two hours on Tuesday 6.21.2011


It was a nice little labor action that got the cab driver some good PR in their battle to get rid of many onerous regulations being put upon them by the SFMTA(San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency).

The way I feel tonight.

Tonight wish I had 5 to 7 million dollars as I don't really ever want to work again.
**
As it is I am working 6 days a week and financially broke in the USA..
**
The way things are going I wonder if 5 to 7 million would be enough to carry me to the end?

Gennady Golovkin defended his WBA World Title Vs Kassim Ouma June 17 , 2011



Gennady Golovkin defended his WBA World Title on June 17, 2011 against Kassim Ouma in an action packed bout in Panama city Panama.
**
The title they fought for pretty much meaningless, although I would say the fight was a coming out party for Golovkin who is ready to challenge the big names in the Middle Weight Division..
**
Golovkin is a talented steel will competitor but needs to work on his defense if he wants to stake his claim at greatness, as is now his defense depends too much on his ability to take a punch and not avoiding blows.
**
My list of Middle weights in order:
1- Sergio Martinez
2-Felix Strum
3-Dimitry Pirog
4-Daniel Geale
5-Gennady Golovkin

U.S. intentionally being turned into a low wage/cheap labour platform.

U.S. intentionally being turned into a low wage/cheap labor platform.  This is done to compete with China, the West intentionally created China as an economic power house by investing capital , transferring technology and giving china access to US markets through low tariffs.  Now Western elites have  created an artificial dialectic in which to now pit Western workers verse low wage Chinese (third world/emerging market) workers.
**
One example of the lowering of living standards in the US is the laying off or firing of workers who are then rehired at lower wage scales with worse medical and pension packages.
**
An example of this can be seen with the restructuring of the work force at GM but these policies are being implemented through the whole economy.
**
The economy has been put on reset at a lower pay scale where US workers have to work harder to access RESOURCES.

Resources.

What are the Resources?
Resources could be things , like oil, water, factories, trained work force, certain types of social organization. etc.
**
Who consumes the Resources?
**
Who controls the Resources?

Fear of deeper economic downturn returns , just in time for Presidential election cycle.

The job statistics, and rate of GDP growth do point to a slow down in the U.S. economy.
**
One can only hope it is a short blip on the screen and not the start of something more ominous.

Under appreciated Carl Froch to defend WBC Super Middle Weight Title June 4, 2011 Saturday Night.


Under appreciated Carl Froch to defend is WBC Super Middle Weight Title on Saturday night June 4, 2011.
**
The fight will be against the excellent veteran fighter Glen Johnson aka the 'The Road Warrior".
**
The fight will be on Showtime cable Network in the US , but I am sure there are multiple ways to see this fight internationally.
**
Showtime did a great service to boxing, and to the  168 pound division by holding it's Super Middle Weight Tournament.
**
Showtime found a talent rich division with under paid performers and made the division into something special with Showtime's, marketing and distribution acumen.
