Your Kind of Day?

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:06:48 GMT

As a rule, I try not to read too terribly much into a "Fed Day" as there is usually a big batch of volatility that may or may not mean much of anything come the dawn of the next day. Maybe, it's just me. Or maybe there are others that find themselves inclined to simply stand aside and watch the nuttiness from the sidelines on "Fed Days." But in any event, the volatility after a Fed announcement, while fun to watch, may not be telling as to what to expect in the future.[More...]

OPINION: End Of Cheap Oil, End Of Road For Ruinous Lifestyle

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 22:46:00 GMT

Nov. 8--In 2004, writer David Owen wrote a piece for The New Yorker magazine that knocked conventional environmental thinking on its ear.
His thesis was that if you look at what's important -- the amount of fossil fuels burned per capita -- the greenest city in the country, far and away, is New York, N.Y. Loud, smelly, gritty Gotham, the Big Apple, is greener than Portland, Seattle, Austin or anywhere in Vermont.
I happened to run into Owen at a conference earlier this year, and he said he had expanded the magazine piece into a book.
