A Frame of Love

a frame of love:

it was morning. she was somewhere safe. the previous twenty four hours had been a struggle. what was happening now was erasing memories of the far past when they had been together.

it was another life now or certainly seemed it and the new replaces the old. he had violated the past with his activity but there was something between the two still intact.

to recount to her, to tell her of his life after many years was a move back to long ago.

CLEARCHARGE

With a Twist of Love

with a twist of love:

the sentiments of the morning had settled. evening came and the noise and voices of the crowd rushed in their place. they told of worries and frustrations, long held views of other people and their hopes and ambitions. it made an uneasy mix.

a drink, chatter surrounding him, then something dropped. like the various symbols on the wheels on the slot machine coming to rest, a chain of miserable thoughts came in a shot - her, doubt, pain. the two worlds had collided.

another day, similar circumstances, but he had recovered.

CLEARCHARGE

Long Summers Ago

long summers ago:

a wry comment and laughter marked the entrance of one of those long summer days of the past with time spent both indoors and out in the garden and playing fields. what was in memory could not be taken for canon truth. was it one summer or another, one day or another?

the laws of manners dictated extensive conversation. yes, truly, shoot! have a ball. engage one another. the lord of our party kept a watchful eye over us. ain't too much? is he looking? we were aware of each other and wary of ourselves. indeed, what was fitting and proper, in this the last few days together? soon to be shipped away from this patch, this land.

The Promise of Ancient Alliances

the promise of ancient alliances:

as it was, there was no modern society with its customs and practices, its rote forms of behaviour. as it is today, people take many things in common for granted, the language, dress and general culture, no longer do we need to search intensively to find what to say or how to behave in most situations.

still, then it was a divided world....
divided by differences of geography and personal differences, and they were in fairly isolated groups. alliances between groups of a few became alliances between many, and anything of value was quickly distributed and shared. the leaders of the time gave promises that they would help and continue together as part of a larger group.

the difficulty of these early meetings was the struggle in communication and the often startling differences between people.

CLEARCHARGE

The Mystic Legacy of the Ancients

the mystic legacy of the ancients:

several things from the ancient past are not lost. their view of life, as it was, may have been simple but surely they could imagine today, at least in part, though perhaps they could not quite place the details of the present. people dreamed of cities with their tall buildings and quick means of transport to distant places long ago, before they existed. with little to do, what else could they do but imagine the far future? they constructed language and forms which reside with us now. sometimes it is hard to distinguish what is truly modern and what is ancient in culture.

it is a primal urge to imagine the possibilities of the future. even today, people imagine starships and travel to other worlds. as of yet, they do not exist. hyperdrive and fuel have not been invented.

sometimes, echoes of the past arrive, to inform us of ancient objectives and agenda. it is human instinct to search for knowledge and this was emphasized in the ancient past.

CLEARCHARGE

The Chaos of Ancient Times

the chaos of ancient times:

in truly ancient times, before the age of science, most had not met and were indeed worlds apart. it was a time of isolation and instability, a time of self discovery in the chaos that was creation. geography was unknown, language undiscovered and there was no common system in place.

now ideas require words to express them. the subsequent development of language and obsession with making sense of the world around them were key. the sound of language was inspiring and its spread rapid across what was then the world as it was.

language became cultural movements. indeed, when we speak of conquest, this could be interpreted as a conquest of ideas and culture, a common base of tools to communicate with each other.

life was uncertain. those of great power and influence were thought of as magicians or even gods. in understanding the ancients, you must realize that they began with very little but hope. the quest for immortality and knowledge and wisdom were common themes in ancient history. to say that it was an insecure time is to say that they were fearful, yet they were wonderfully prepared to learn. they grasped at anything that would lead to greater understanding and created ideals for themselves.

however, the nature and personalities of people often do not change with time, by which i mean that these types are still with us today, though in an altogether modern setting.

CLEARCHARGE

A Mood of Time

a mood of time:

past, present, future....

now in our memories is stored the past and is the key to this past. the mood, the phrases, certain events. to recreate a likeness of the past is often not difficult.

and what of the future? in some form, although slight perhaps, the future is already here. we may be aware of what is going to happen as the process has already begun and the potential is here. what of choice between different paths?

past concerns may be answered by the future, in its nascent form, that is already now.

CLEARCHARGE

Matter and Space

matter and space:

matter in multidimensional space....

a single bit of matter is joined to another, matter extends in chains in multiple directions.

communication depends on signals transferred between distant points, a change that is effected across space.

we assume constants in reality, there are limits.

CLEARCHARGE

An Article of Time

an article of time:

as we all know, time as recorded is measured in seconds, minutes, hours and so on. we assume there was a start to everything, useful as a reference point.

the following is an illustrative construct:

let us imagine a board of coloured squares, ten by ten, to be seen....

now at the start, the original states of those squares seem random as compared to each other. there are numerous colours, perhaps some squares are the same colour but different shades, perhaps some squares are identical to other squares. as time progresses, some of those squares change, though perhaps not all squares change. some squares change a great deal. some squares change very little. some squares change and then back to original state, perhaps in an infinite time loop. some squares may change a great deal but eventually are reset to original state.

do squares affect adjoining squares?
if so, how much?

CLEARCHARGE

Timelines and Distant Courses in History

timelines and distant courses in history:

from what is presented in historical accounts, the inevitable sense that diverse cultures and societies traded certain values over the course of time is held up as a mark of achievement.

ancient cultures were occupied by constructing language as a means of communication, to unite their groups in the way they thought and spoke. this always was a barrier to any kind of social harmony.

the study of labour is a branch of history and the industrialization associated with it. alternatively, leisure activities benefited greatly from the fruits of labour and hard work. people may be divided by what they think but at least they were united in terms of activity.

hard to imagine some particular course in history that developed in isolation may be the case though some individuals may, even though they were more affected, be also clueless. these events may be important as they would explain why the present is as it is.

CLEARCHARGE

Focus in History

focus in history:

examining history and its records often surprises us, first the different emphasis in life in the past. from the words used we imagine an altogether alternative world and we become familiar with what those in the past thought about, the large movements, invention and then social concerns.

there are greater themes in history, what obsessed people, be it machines and tools, clothes, or even social progress in the sense that different groups engaged for the first time. to study the greater theme should not exclude consideration of all others, though perhaps what really happened was that life was a circus around the major activity of the time.

there is in people a tendency to be caught up with group interest such that times in the past seem biased and unbalanced now.

CLEARCHARGE

Corporate History and Modern Life

corporate history and modern life:

as stated in a previous blog (Power and Person) history and religion are obsessed with the study of the large and powerful. the rise of the large corporation and big business deserves some thought. in modern life, we are surrounded by product from big business, the cars, the foodstuffs, clothes and electronics.

the late 1800's saw the discovery of crude oil and Rockefeller's Standard Oil came to prominence, also the invention of Coca-Cola, for example. people saw in modest beginnings the start of something potentially great and joined in to support these businesses.

developments in science and technology gave rise to wonderful new machines leading to an increase in wealth and living standards. there were periods in history where there was an intense rivalry between factions such that progress was severely halted. after all, business is competitive and ideas scarce.

these large corporate entities impacted on the world to change things forever.

CLEARCHARGE

Agenda and Gain

agenda and gain:

what is the question? what is your stance on this issue?
to advance yourself both in a social sense and materially?

to sense the opportunity and when it will occur and to be ready

trade and mutual benefit....
another dimension opens and closes.
what does the other person mean to you?

the target is clear, into the zone, make the match....
killed off by the moment of success, what happens afterwards?

it is all a game we play!

CLEARCHARGE

Misgivings of a Sentimental Nature

misgivings of a sentimental nature:

it was done. why i did it, i know why....
a present, something of myself, to give of my time to you

perhaps i was confused, perhaps i was lost
but now alone again with no regret

to portion the effort spent, was it too little or too much?
how will i know?

CLEARCHARGE

Personality and Politics

personality and politics:

to do what you think? you have thought a lot over the years. many possibilities have come to mind.

overwhelmed by choices....

am i easily persuaded? do i listen to others?
convinced by reasoning, the choice seemed rational.

competing agendas....
what do i choose to do?

CLEARCHARGE

Sentence Construction

sentence construction:

there is a theme in every sentence.

constructing an english sentence depends on choice of words to express the theme, which you must not distract from. leave that for further sentences or paragraphs.

choosing the right words is important. you need a vocabulary list....
words that describe the theme or suggest the theme in a different light.

for example the theme is work. it may be clerical, that is, writing itself. the writer ended the sentence and killed off the paragraph with the word then.

CLEARCHARGE

Academic Theoretical Evaluation

academic theoretical evaluation:

there is a theory....
how true is that theory? all the time or are there exceptions? in academic life definitely the true all the time theory is preferred!

real theories simplify that which may be complex, reducing the subject matter to several key variables to be considered. in their best form these theories offer solutions to problems.

evaluating any theory requires real testing....
does it work?

those that do lift academic theories beyond the high ivory tower of the academic and into the mainstream.

CLEARCHARGE

Rationality in Investment

rationality in investment:

the saying buy low sell high....
this is all very well but pessimism often prevents the investor from buying at the low point, the general mood being actually so negative that it seems foolish and counter trend.

is the world about to end? or the economy? or just this sector of the market?

each sector of the market has its dominant companies, old and established, and they are the first to recover.

CLEARCHARGE

Protection in Relationship

protection in relationship:

in close relationships imagination plays a part. the tone and colour of their interest vary and why not? obsession is frequent and satisfaction is in knowing what happens.

incidents....
tears and frustration follow on an unavoidable path. it is known that the happy times become infrequent in times of stress and there is immense pressure on individuals to perform.

latent forces between people guide the way in relationships....
who you are close to is fate. often it is hard to reconcile different aspects of the person in question. there is fine and bad.

were you protecting parts though?

CLEARCHARGE

To a Private Corner

to a private corner:

well it happened and then....
the chatter, the speech, the glances astray, the concerted stare
am i missing something?

as someone said once so i believed
the doubt went away
the matters ceased
what became of the person?

of my life in this frame
i cannot budge
i cannot deny that what passed
rooted to the spot

perception swells may memory become whole

CLEARCHARGE

Reality Levels

reality levels:

usually thought about at first then more apparent, an idea or vague concept crystallizing in the mind....

can i see it? can i hear it? how far does reality differ from initial imagination?

is this my intention?
is it even a good idea?

not everything thought about becomes any more real. are we perpetually insane? common obsessions may dominate our thinking.

the capacity to think clearly about what could be is most valuable.

CLEARCHARGE

From a Public Place

from a public place:

It is often wondered whether events and their circumstances were by design and if so how much? What people remember is the address or location, perhaps the season, if not the month, and those present. Some people are more concerned with detail, the exact time, the clothes, what was said and the interaction between groups. Anything new is grasped upon, should Mr. X have mixed with Miss Y, the gossip surrounding such an incident would continue for days. Does such a match fit anyone's expectations or more importantly does X fit Y's expectations and Y X's? They spoke, they touched, embraced and met again, all in a few hours.

CLEARCHARGE

The Act of Touch

the act of touch:

beyond the conversation and further in social interaction, there lies the promise of physical union, preceded by simple touch. the hand meets hand, the waist and the hip. what was once unknown now is discovered, relating to sense and emotion.

CLEARCHARGE

To the End Game

to the end game:

discussion is long over, instruction barely remembered....
what is impossible? what seems likely?

it developed into this....
pushed forward by change, what response do i have? what seemed only possible at first is now the case.

make or break....
stay on the ball, the creative moment has passed.

let it play out

CLEARCHARGE

The Grand Event

the grand event:

social history of communities and grand events of the era, when rivalries were put aside and they came in their thousands to celebrate their progress and wonderful developments and increase in wealth and living standards....

have you heard? something is going to happen, there is an event....

though previously real divisions in society, beyond race, class, nationality, age, gender, politics and religion, were ignored and the idea of society coming together happened. extended families, business connections, friends and even strangers passed on the word. such events became much glamorized.

what did these people have in common? was it industry, commerce or language? or an unspoken agreement to converge to form one whole society without the constraints that had once applied?

later media obsession highlights these events, and they live on in memory.

CLEARCHARGE

Charity and Acts of Faith

charity and acts of faith:

social interaction can be reduced to these two qualities. one hopes to help, not to damage the other, and we continue in good faith.

what makes another happy? what makes another satisfied?

showing interest, talking, thinking through matters, telling other people what they need to know, simply.
a coupling of minds, desire, emotional bonds.

whether apart or as one, do we need to think about the other? or does it come naturally?

CLEARCHARGE

Power and Person

power and person:

this power, concentrated in a person or a place or something that happened?

events and incidents....
some things that happen impact on the world to change things forever, for example, the world wide web, which ignited a whole chain of events, the way business is done, communication and a revision in the whole of the media.

of a strong leader....
his or her rise to power was rapid and strength of personality ensured all rivals were subdued, instituting change and progress. history and religion are obsessed with the study of the large and powerful and indeed their legacy to us all.

the place....
a grand arena for people to come together and join, subject to the mood and the inspiration that place holds.

CLEARCHARGE

Home Management

home management:

house work is a habit and, as they say, not to be regarded as a chore. to be sure, everyone would like a clean, healthy state of affairs at home.

to add or not to add? the wonderful new item, the pretty little yet useful toy, the one of a kind, had to have it.
what about the old possessions? is your house becoming a museum?

of precious little value?
what to throw away? objects and their fields, how do they affect you?

the old saying....
if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

what changes a home the most?
some would say the introduction of an object, be it a new chair, a new bed or even a new table.

CLEARCHARGE

In the Mean Time

in the mean time:

all these things going on, the scene before me, the voices, the noise, the people....
am i pressed for time? i still have time.

there it is, it delivers an urgency to my life....
needs, want, intention.

further on, in the future, this will only pale. a willowy image, a few words remembered. an experience to be treasured? perhaps.

what was there then, lurking in the shadows of my mind, will burst into life one day.
am i prepared?

CLEARCHARGE

Theme in Conversation

theme in conversation:

a place, a mood, the ambient noise....
however we arrived, whatever we did, through which doors, together in congress now.
observations, both personal and of the situation, contemplation, regard to dress, manner and circumstance.

talk....
someone has started, someone is listening.

what is there to talk about?

this is what i think....
do you differ? because now i have heard that from you.

anyway i continue, though i consider what you have said.
i shoot, i relay, i put forth, until my strength fails and falls on uncertain ground and my thoughts become clouded and confused.

CLEARCHARGE

Money Creation and Destruction

money creation and destruction:

the initial creation of money is of course by government, which then flows through the economy, passing through many hands, and the government, through central banks, remains the ultimate creator of money. credit systems later evolve through private banks and their lending and the distinction may not be clear.

the increase in credit in economic systems and the decline of cash involvement and the rise in debt and risk in business deals, and the subsequent failures and bankruptcies thereof, results in loss of capital and what amounts to destruction of money and credit as failed economic projects must be written off. even cash sums involved may in effect be lost from the system as cash is hoarded in the event of risk.

successful business ventures create capital and only increase the flow of money and credit in the economy.

in recession, if we assume a decrease in the money supply, and the resulting deflationary consequences, can the government remedy the economic situation by creating money?

without money, the economy stalls.

CLEARCHARGE

Terminology and Language

terminology and language:

the language of a particular field, a certain subject, the text and speech required for greater understanding of the issues involved....

the language of love, the terminology of science, the knowledge of syntax and the grammar of language itself, the vocabulary of subjects.

in language the spoken word came first, as all historians will agree, as it was the written word became important later to record the common speech of the times.

word order is very much a crucial point in syntax. using the right word is even more important.

how does written differ from spoken language? does it have to?

written involves syntax rules more than spoken language and contains more derivative words from common spoken language.
people have less time to talk and delivery needs to be strong, emphasis is only on a few words in spoken language.

choose well!

do you have an idea where you are going? do you have access to a map?
sometimes you don't.

where were you before this place? where were you before that?

somewhere new, following the map, imagining the next turn or direction. are you looking out for the next landmark on this trek?

you came from some place.
can you return?

CLEARCHARGE

Matching Demand

matching demand:

the match between demand and supply happens and there is a price, without this, there is no progress. often there is a distinction between what is stated and what may only be implied. as negotiations develop, this becomes clear.

say what the demand is! be forthright. be prepared.

when demand is great, and supply is little, and negotiations fumble, the realization strikes that the price is more. supply may happen and economic attention will be diverted to this rare resource.

what the demand is may be complex or it may be simple. what is the primary interest?
a beef sandwich? or a chicken sandwich?
type of bread? cheese? toasted?

matching demand may be inexact. requirements differ. timescales matter. individual sectors of the economy may proceed in an independent fashion for years, on their own plans and their own budget.

CLEARCHARGE

Numerical Algorithms

numerical algorithms:

these are series of numbers which could be used in programming. each number in the series is a code for a function that needs to be defined.

for example:
1,2,2,1 or 1221

what does that mean?
it could mean start at one, increase to two, stay at two, then decrease to one? it could also mean start at position one, progress to position two, stay at two, return to one!

CLEARCHARGE

Frustration and Sleeplessness

frustration and sleeplessness:

why can't you sleep? are there long running urges? things you have been wanting to do but haven't got around to doing them yet? do you procrastinate? are you sleeping with something going on in your mind?

why not hurry up and do them?

you may sleep better!

CLEARCHARGE

Geography and Navigation

geography and navigation:

roads, buildings and crossings. we look up, we see the sky and stars. we look down, we see the ground. many rely on maps to guide us. where does this road lead? who has walked here before?

where is the supermarket? where is the school? where is the library and the parks too? some maps place importance on different land marks. on some the roads are printed large, others the main attractions, some the playing fields and entertainment venues.

on the subway or underground train network:

at the cross over station....
how to get to the next line? here it gets confusing. there are signs hopefully, to guide us, otherwise we are hopelessly lost. there are straight paths but they turn right and left. you realize after several left and right turns you could be facing any direction, all sense of direction is lost. some would say keep turning right, others may say lets go back. where is the sign?

in any developed town, it is important to remember that the supermarket is where everyone has been. if X starts talking off about the school her children go to and Y says she sends her sons to another, you can conclude this is a town where there are young children and community life is centred around families. commuter towns have sprung up and distance to the railway station or bus station is the measure of any property.

CLEARCHARGE

Chemical Reactions

chemical reactions:

mass is a complex form of matter, small in the sense that there are many elements at the atomic and molecular level. molecules are tightly bound complexes of atoms.

light is usually the primary influence over mass, violent changes in the light give rise to electric currents so that an altered state occurs. the natural state of mass is in equilibrium. in inequilibrium, further electric currents feed into surrounding matter, which may affect light and sound.

valencies may differ, which give rise to unexpected chemical reactions, though a common valency may apply across molecules.

the image of a substance feeds into chemical reactions. there is a tangible resonance between an object and underlying electric currents between atoms and molecules.

CLEARCHARGE

Self, Purpose and Others

self, purpose and others:

who am i? everyone gets asked this. what self is, is not always clear. you surprise yourself, you question yourself.

what is your purpose in life? should i do something? what should i do? what should i avoid doing? often we are judged not by what we did, in most cases, but what we did not do. can we help anyway?

what are other people? how do they react to me?
the social network:
others are far away with many in between. not everyone is the girl next door.

do we all read the same things? do we interpret things differently?

could someone, not the boy or girl next door, be thinking the same thing at the same time?

Think Like Think 1000

think like think 1000:

there are levels of consciousness....

thinking, associative analysis, verbal reasoning, concept evaluation, variable manipulation, calculation, programming....
call it what you will, think is often crucial.

imagine if you will the ability to think about 1000 different variables or concepts or ideas....
what is the aim of thinking? how to achieve this aim, if there are 1000 different things to think about?
it is to form an acceptable arrangement of variables, a complex if you like, that is pleasing and true, or rather, what goes with what?
well, truth be told, think 1000 has a grand strategy, to change somewhat nebulous concepts to fine form, that is, not to attack the problem but to return now and again to analyze how it has developed.

levels of consciousness....
although not really thinking thinking about something many people are aware of certain facts which proves at some subconscious levels they are still thinking about them.

Stages in Sleep

stages in sleep:

first of all, thoughts begin to drift, the analytical mind begins to dissolve, currents flow back and forth.

second of all, a rhythmic flow pattern electronic happens. it is often a repeat cycle which explains why sleep most often seems a short time.

arousal from sleep occurs, thoughts become clearer....

Core Statistics in Modern Life

core statistics in modern life:

core statistics in modern life include ratios such as supermarkets per community, restaurants, railway stations, clothes shops, televisions, computers....

indeed, key parts of the economy are food, transport, clothes, housing and communications. for example, what percentage of households in a community have one or more cars? how many telephones? how many pairs of shoes does the lady have?

not all communities are the same....
a residential area in the centre of a city is not the same as the leafy suburb in the outskirts of the city. how good is the communications network? how many outsiders pass through?

food is basic. there might be only one supermarket on or near the high street or main street. only one or two restaurants, a couple of fast food outlets.
transport is far more complex to analyze. is it the car, the bicycle, the tram or the bus or train? or even the plane or starship or boat or ship? fuel is a consideration.
housing is the industry which shows most the inequalities in society. the lord or lady of the manor versus the council house tenant or those living in the projects.

who has access to the web? how fast and reliable is the connection?

if we assume people live as couples....
for example, the two person household:
1 apartment:2 people
1 fixed line telephone:2 people
however what if they each have their own computer and line connection?
2 computers:2 people

core statistics are ever changing and explain much in society.

there is a turn of phrase....
what is my role in society?
how did i get where i am?

how do i measure my success? by my own yard stick? what about my effect on others? indeed, how do other people view me?

the leaders show the way, whether they be investment bankers, masters of the universe, politicians, the representatives of the corners of society....

how easy was it? people are naturally interested in other people. application to detail, drive, motivation are all part of the recipe of success. was it luck?

to say we met, we joined, we formed a congress of minds is to have achieved something.

Emotional problems mostly out of frustration may complicate matters.
Insomnia may beget further stress.
The eyesight is affected it may become blurry and severely impact upon tension in the head.

Financial Economics: Expected Returns

expected returns:

any project of economic interest requires capital, the timescales for expected returns are certainly important, not only is it a matter of satisfying initial credit claims but also determining the level of interest in the project. if i and my partners have to wait 14 years for the full level of expected returns, would we still be interested? what if it were only 4?

the larger the project, the more complex it becomes, in terms of asset classes formed and used and traded. financing or capital expenditure is key from the outset, not only to set up the venture but also to maintain the corporation. where does this capital come from? the credit/capital markets or from the forming partners. capital may be very expensive.

running costs may vary and can lead any company to bankruptcy. returns in the later years must be greater than costs.

R = Returns
C = Costs

R > C

The Analyst

the analyst:

his or her job:
to collect from most known sources of information, rearrange variables, find causal evidence, search possibilities and outcomes....

....and offer most likely predictions of the future.

how does X lead to Y? how many likely outcomes are there? do things come about by random chance?

if A does not happen, what then are the chances B or C will?

the analyst has a job to forecast the future and provide solutions in each instance.

....crystallizes in the head, so to speak, and is difficult to shake. it affects our mood, our emotions, our subconscious mind and ultimately our actions or indeed in some cases our nonactions or omissions. the truth is hard to forget, especially when gained through dreadful experiences: damaged, carrying baggage. our emotions are a powerful source or influence.

....i can't stop thinking about something. am i missing something?

How Did We First Meet?

how did we first meet?

of communication, what we hear comes high on the list:
what did she say? what did you two talk about?
what do you think of what he said? what was that expression she used?

fixing geographical location:
let's meet! where is she? where is he?
theoretically: the time is right, we are both here. where?

think! what was the last thing i was told?
