A case for Earth's greatest asset - The Blue Gold

If there is one greatest asset mankind has, it is his home planet. Earth is a very special place in our scheme of things. Until we are able to inhabit other planets and heavenly bodies, it is the only place where we can live. Only place to exist. Among the many gifts of earth is the gift of water. Countless billions have been spent looking for water in our solar system. But Earth is definitely the only place where the life giving water is so abundanlty available.
Water is a scare resource. It is sufficient for many more millenia to come, but there are still many issues concerning water. Water when refered by us mainly means fresh water resource. And fresh water is even scarcer resource.
It reminds me of a anecdote, when one of our professors wanted to teach us about infinity. He asked us, what would happen if we take a bucket of water from the ocean. The standard reply was nothing. What is a bucket of water when, ocean is so full. But the right answer was ocean would be shorter by a bucket of water, keeping all the things constant. It is like to saying, infinity is only infinite until we catch up with it.
Below listed are some resources by experts and subject matter specialists which highlights the importance of the issue at hand.
This is essentially a gold bugs page. But all the gold in the world cant quench the thirst. Water is irreplaceable. Water is without doubt most precious resource we have on earth. And it our duty to protect it and make sure future generations recieve the same blessing of earth.

Cognitive rules of business presentations

In his recent book, Clear and to the Point, Kosslyn explained that the four rules of PowerPoint are: The Goldilocks Rule, The Rudolph Rule, The Rule of Four, and the Birds of a Feather Rule. Here's how they work. The Goldilocks Rule refers to presenting the "just right" amount of data. Never include more information than your audience needs in a visual image. As an example, Kosslyn showed two graphs of real estate prices over time. One included ten different numbers, one for each year. The other included two numbers: a peak price, and the current price. For the purposes of a presentation about today's prices relative to peak price, those numbers were the only ones necessary. The Rudolph Rule refers to simple ways you can make information stand out and guide your audience to important details -- the way Rudolph the reindeer's red nose stood out from the other reindeers' and led them. If you're presenting a piece of relevant data in a list, why not mak...

Definition of Cult Stocks

From a blog: A classification describing stocks that have a sizable investor following, despite the fact that the underlying company has somewhat insignificant fundamentals. Typically, investors are initially attracted to the company's potential and accumulate positions in speculation that its potential will be fulfilled, providing the investors with a substantial payout. While most of these cult stocks promise they will be the next big story after they make a new discovery or get the newest contract from the government, most do not provide investors with anything other than the story. Furthermore, these stocks typically generate very little, if any, revenue at all. For example, many micro-cap biotech stocks are cult stocks. While they promise that they are going to be working on a miracle compound or drug, most of them do not have any source of income as they slowly burn away their initial capital in research and development. However, some cult stocks do occasionally make good on...
