Ikke bare å heve prisene
Tidligere har ikke økte matvarepriser internasjonalt slått ut på det norske prisnivået, på grunn av høye tollmurer og politisk regulering av prisene på viktige landbruksvarer. Det norske landbruket har avtalt såkalte målpriser gjennom landbruksforhandlingene. Dermed er det ikke bare for produsentene å sette opp sine priser.

• Smoothie med banan, jordbær og honningmelon
• Smoothie med bjørnebær og rips
• Jordbær- og pære smoothie

Vi kan få en situasjon i Norge hvor vi må importere for eksempel korn til en pris som ligger over det norske bønder kan få. Da er det et spørsmål hva vi gjør i Norge. Det er vanskelig å operere med to priser i Norge, sier Ivar Pettersen, direktør ved Norsk institutt for landbruksøkonomisk forskning.
Vi har et vesentlig høyere prisnivå og importprisene slår ikke inn fordi tollen gjør at det ikke foregår mye import. I det siste har noen priser internasjonalt kommet over det norske nivået og da er vi i en situasjon hvor vi kan lure på om vi trenger tollvernet på enkelte områder, legger han til.
Dyreste korn noensinne
Vanligvis reflekterer høye matpriser dårlig høst og den har vært dårlig enkelte steder, blant annet Australia. Men ifølge Economist kommer årets «agflasjon» i en tid med overflod av ulike råvarer, ikke mangel. Årets kornproduksjon er den høyeste noensinne.
En del av årsaken til at prisene stiger internasjonalt er at det er mer kamp om areal og bruk av arealer til produksjon av biodrivstoff. I tillegg er det dårlige avlinger en del steder. Noe av det er også spekulasjonsdrevet. Finansaktører som er inne og spekulerer i at prisen på enkelte varer skal gå den ene eller andre veien. Det kan drive prisen, forklarer Juel.

New Tagline = New Brand? Not So Fast, JC Penney.
February 15th, 2007

The Brains on Fire Blog relays news of JC Penney’s new tagline, “Every Day Matters.”

Apparently, this is another example of how bringing on a new agency often yields a new tagline. Oh, yes, there’s the quote from agency representative about “resonating with consumers.”
A final word on last.fm. From my brief exploration it seems that the site has quite a variety of “expertise” in different styles and genres of music. Typically you find music sites are very top heavy in certain areas and very sparse in others. I was happy to find many users who had similar interests in all of my favorite musical areas. I’m curious to see if you guys find that to be the case as well. Anyway, you can view my music profile at

I remember, today, my uncle who died in his ancestral homeland of Belgium, during the Second World War, fighting to free them from the grip of Hitler’s troops. He is buried in Europe… somewhere. I think of all the cousins who fought in all the wars since the War Between the States forward. And, I think of my Great Grandfather, who fought in the 17th Regiment of South Carolina Infantry, Company “I”, along with a slew of great uncles, cousins and such. Some of them never made it back home to their loved ones.

That’s what this day is about. Remembering them, and remembering that freedom is not free. We pay for it. We pay for it in blood. But, it is so precious… millions of Americans have willingly lain down their lives to secure it for the generations yet unborn.

Admittedly I’ve been slack on the Friday game thing but have no fear I’m back once again with a killer flash game. If your a fan of the Discovery Channel show Deadliest Catch then you’ll immediately recognize the premise of this one. The objective is to catch as many crab as possible in a limited amount of time. To do this you’ll need to buy a boat, outfit it and hire a crew. Sounds simple but you’ll need just the right mix of equipment, men and knowhow if you want to be successful.
Deadliest Catch
Is it a new day at JC Penney? I don’t think so. Spike Jones at Brains on Fire testifies:

“A rallying cry is great. But a remarkable experience is even better. It transcends tag lines and advertising. (And when you have a great name, you might not even need a tagline because your name says it all.)

“Creating a new tagline won’t change anything. Try starting with the culture. The experience. The people inside your company.”

The 80/20 Rule Becomes the One Percent Rule In Social Bookmarking Success
February 12th, 2007

As in many cases, the few are impacting the many when it comes to social bookmarking sites such as Digg and del.ic.ious

Fitter, happier, more productive
Added a few more header pics… Evan is now famous with the fire breathing pic.

A short weekend update
I spent 2 days climbing this weekend. Friday Matt, Kasandra, Evan, Mike, and I spent the evening climbing at Lighthouse Park. Mike climbed for the very first time. There were tons of seals floating around by the cliffs. It was really neat having staring contests with some of the seals. Yesterday 21 VOCers went to Squamish for a beginner rock climb course. I taught for the very first time - building anchors for top roping for my students and giving them a quick intro on anchor set up and teaching them how to rappel. Fortunately everything went as planned and I didn’t kill any of my students. Phew!
Today I was able to sleep in. The last weekend I was able to sleep in was probably like 6 weeks ago. I felt very good and energized all day. It sure felt good to have more than 7 hours of sleep!
So how do you get out of the thought process that you will never find someone else. Well I guess you could do what I am doing. I am not going to work at making something work, I just want to let things happen. Maybe I will go out one night and meet the girl of my dreams, and everything will fall into place, then again maybe I won’t. The key thing I need to remember is that nights like last night, where there are almost no feelings or emotions at all, isn’t what I want…

In Chicago for Thanksgiving

I just arrived in Chicago to spend Thanksgiving with my girlfriend. I got here this morning, and will be here until next Saturday. It has been about a month since we have last saw each other, so their is definately a weirdness between us.

To be truthful, I was actually suppose to get here Friday night so we could maximize the time with one another, but postponed until today because I had plans Friday and Saturday night.

A little about Saturday night…. well it sucked! My buddy’s friend was having a small party and when we got there, there was one girl and 12 other guys (at least the girl was hot though!). We stayed about an hour then all went to a bar, which was interesting.
Expect a statement from Tony Snow blaming the “liberal media” for always pointing towards the negative aspects of the invasion and never crediting the administration for “bringing democracy” and improving the (non-existent) infrastructure in Iraq. Also look out for an attack on the “cut and run” Democrats and another affirmation from our Dear Leader on the importance of “staying the course.” Did anyone expect competence from an utterly incompetent administration?

Racist Ahnold?

September 9, 2006 @ 12:10 am - Filed under Moran

California Governator Arnold Schwarzenegger is in hot water for “racist comments.” So, what’s new?

The comments were captured on tapes during a speechwriting session between Mr. Schwarzenegger, a Republican seeking re-election, and his chief of staff, Susan Kennedy, when they spoke of their shared affection for Assemblywoman Bonnie Garcia’s legislative style.

“I mean Cuban, Puerto Rican, they are all very hot,” the governor says on the recording. “They have the, you know, part of the black blood in them and part of the Latino blood in them that together makes it.”

I don’t understand exactly what’s racist about this statement? He is perpetuating a stereotype about Hispanics, but it can hardly be labeled as racism. Maybe I am missing something.
Why is it that my friends are afraid to talk to girls they don’t know? By no means are they ugly. I can honestly say almost all of them are 7’s or 8’s, but for some reason they turn into wimps when we go out. I feel like there is a lot of hype before we go out, but when we get there everything changes. I need to find a better wing man!
Have a date this Tuesday… we’ll see how this one goes. Hopefully it won’t turn out disastrous like the last couple. Wish me luck!

Oh yeah, changed the background colour a little bit to make it easier on the eyes.

A long post
The original plan for the past long weekend was to leave Friday afternoon and join Piotr, Felix, and Evan on the Tantalus Range trip. At the last minute I realized that my mom had a surgery booked on Friday afternoon for her fingers. The family decided to have dinner Friday night, making the Tantalus Range trip a no go. Instead I woke up at 4:30AM Sat morning, drove around Vancouver to pick up Christian, Lorraine, Dorota, Urszula and drove to Penticton for a fun weekend of climbing at Skaha bluffs.

We arrived at the parking lot around 11. It was sunny and hot. Earlier that morning it was pouring rain in Vancouver. Having checked the forecast, the Tantalus guys made a wise decision - postpone the trip and come to Skaha instead. Conveniently, we bumped into them just as we were phoning around other VOCers trying to find out where they went. We quickly got ready, hiked for about 30 mins, and arrived at one of the many Skaha walls.

The two rising norwegian stars Mira Craig and Pia Tjelta are just becomming very popular in Norway. The Mira Craig is a musician/singer and Pia Tjelta is an actor. They are both very talented and will undoubtly do great in the future. Music and acting is an art form that are higly appreciated by the norwegian audience. Pia Tjelta is starring in a movie that will be released very soon and that movie will do great and get many people to the cinema to watch it. Mira Craig is releasing a new album very soon and the album will for sure make it to the top 10 list in Norway.
