The saga is over A few boxes of new 12, 20 and 30 plate heat exchangers are in my store. The process was not that onerous but in my discussions with Customs and Quarantine (AQIS) the process can be very daunting for people who do not have the necessary paperwork. In the case of [...] Continue reading The world of Importing – part 2 – What other response would we expect? http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2008/10/20/2396245.htm Next they will trot out the old one about people losing jobs because they cannot sell grog to a bunch of pissed poker machine playing people at 3 AM in the morning. When are we going to develop some community minded governmental responses instead of pandering to self [...] Continue reading Never expect support from an interest group. It looks like the pollies are starting to panic, running around saying how bad it will get. George Bush is kissing some frenchman and nodding his head (as the frenchman speaks in French and blames the US for all the world’s problems). Kevin Rudd is well, Kevin Rudd. Malcom Turnbull is so busy trying to [...] Continue reading The pollies are making the cries more serious With a global turndown imminent perhaps we can change the direction of our thinking in a way that will better prepare us for the future where the air and water should be clean? Lets aim some of these billions at alternative energy sources, at providing a decent education for the millions who miss out or [...] Continue reading Lets move forward on the environment? Sometime after the AUD was at 97c and before it fell to its current level I ordered a heap of gear from China. Shipping info turns up as I am going to do the clearing myself (I have been in contact with Aus customs a number of times) It appears that most of the information [...] Continue reading The world of importing For a few hours it even looked as if the cat was going to stand but I guess someone decided they needed the money and so started selling. I guess they are buying again soon? This is starting to look a bit messy – as I have said elsewhere Don’t name your pets, you might [...] Continue reading That cat did not bounce very well at all? The world markets all had a dramatic (sort of) rise after the various announcements of the taxpayers propping up the free market system. Consequently I guess some players have made incredible amounts of money, and their CEOs will be claiming additional bonuses for making it all happen, again on the back of the taxpayers who [...] Continue reading I guess it was to be expected? What a great way to describe someone A dead cat bounce Amid all the talk of investors getting back in and maybe the bottom has been reached there is still a marked reluctance for anything that even begins to look like some sort of recovery. I cannot see why that a situation where the govt [...] Continue reading Australian Markets jump – but is it still a dead cat bounce? Mixed bag of Bags? A mix of one and five micron filter bags with cheap satchel postage. These bags of polyethylene material that has been needle pricked to obtain the micron rating ar eexcellent for filtering of waste vegetable oil as well as water or dust filtration units. Also available in bulk deals if you [...] Continue reading Mixed bag of Bags? I am sure that the government believes that this is pretty much a risk free promise or undertaking. If they are wrong I guess things will be that bad it will all be irrelevant? Geoff Trying out some syndicated RSS and site feeds and it looks like I made an incorrect button push somewhere. These were not supposed to appear here and from what I can see they should not be here. Maybe they will go away soon? So now the markets” are waiting to see how much more support has to be pumped into them? If they do not like public money going into private business they will react badly and the markets will drop further. Trillions have been wiped form the “value” (or perhaps the value is finding its own level) [...] Continue reading If the rescue package is not good the “markets” will react badly ??? As the financial and possibly business world slowly crumbles perhaps we can look on the bright ide a bit more and understand that this change may very well help restore the health of the planet? With a forced reduction in consumption and the possibly that we will need to rely a lot more on locally [...] Continue reading Age of Conservation and Green Living Australian market is continuing down – not a pretty sight. Currently at 3950 and the bottom is not yet in sight. At least both the water tanks are full. Australia appears to be pretty well palced in the current market collapse (yep – collapse is what is happening) The world is starting to find out that for something to have a value it does actually need to exist and I don’t mean exist as in a parcel of defaulting home loans that someone values [...] Continue reading Australian Dollar in free fall – and we are lucky ? Welcome to this blog to all Romanians. You must be spreading the word because nearly every automated signup comes from Romania. I must admit I am unable to read most of your names as they appear to be spelt in random key strokes. I appreciate the entrepeneurial aspects though and the way so many are [...] Continue reading Welcome to Romanians Patiently waiting for a new shipment of heat exchangers but there really is a slow boat from China. With the current state of the US and world economy it will be interesting to see whether on line selling or for that matter many other kinds of selling are going to survive? Tightening economies, possible recession or even [...] Continue reading Heat Exchange and the State of the Economy The package passes and the markets fall, I can only assume this is another opportunity to make a significant profit. If George had just let the markets operate the way markets are supposed to (and let those banks and institutions go bust there may have been a lot more confidence in the way the issue [...] Continue reading Well – that appears to have achieved very little. We have entered the world of automated signups – again. It is a sad world we live in? Geoff The US bailout appears to be underway. Markets are still quite muted with a range of responses but nothing firm. I guess while people are taking profits from the turmoil and instability it will continue. We can only hope that the taxpayer invested billions (the Senators did revise the bill upwards) keeps the market in [...] Continue reading The Senators have been convinced. Will the House be next? |
