May 12, 2008 Stock Market Recap

Mon, 12 May 2008 16:29:44 PDT
Buyers really seemed to be on a mission today as they took the market up from the open and pretty much never looked back. The one problem with today’s impressive price gains was that volume was on the light side. The big tests I see coming are the indices at their 200-day moving averages. I think we’ll need much more volume to make it through those important resistance lines. We saw how the Dow failed at its 200 DMA last week. It looks like the Nasdaq is going to try its luck with its 200 DMA

Coworking, Childcare, Cubes & Crayons

Mon, 12 May 2008 07:00:10 PDT
Coworking continues to evolve and mold to the increasingly blurred boundaries between domestic and professional life. An area often overlooked is that of childcare for remote workers and home workers. I have colleagues and collaborators who, despite the fact they’re self-employed and work largely from a home office, still need to employ childcare. Some may see this as an unnecessary overhead, but it’s actually desperately needed in order to provide focus whilst working from home. Enter Cubes

CBC: And now for an honest middle o’ the road perspective… (no—just kidding!) News item: dozens of ducks land in an oil sands “tailings” pond in Alberta which is usually protected by bird-scaring techniques to keep the birds away; and are poisoned, and die. It’s a tragedy. Clearly. The company is sad, the government is sad, we’re all sad. No doubt one or two heads will roll, and probably, people will be more careful in the future. We all hope so. And none of us need to be lectured about

Staying home

Mon, 12 May 2008 06:55:56 PDT
The weather today is HORRIBLE here today. We’re having a Nor’easter. If it were winter we’d be getting buried under tons of snow. I’m glad it’s just rain. I just got home from going to WaWa. It’s pouring, the wind is blowing so bad that I had to dodge fallen branches and when I parked my car the wind was shaking it. I was afraid the car was going to blow over. The electric has gone out several times and the WaWa I went to is the only one open in the area (there are 3 in this area). The others
