Fox is where the rumour started.

Perhaps you should not trust Fox news. Trump is lying to look better...

I lived in Australia. It was very different. I lived near a big mall. You would find luxury brands like Tiffany's. At the other end were grocery stores, a big fruit / veg store, and speciality stores eg butchery shop, Bakery, etc. It all seemed normal.

The best book on innovation you never read and why you should The Grace of Great Things: Creativity and Innovation I have been reading books on creativity and innovation for 30 years to explore ideas and insights. After a while, many started to sound alike.

I've never heard that rumour. I have heard that FIFA will move games from the USA if visas become restricted. I do not believe either is real.

In 2026, the world's best soccer players will be in canada, and the USA and Mexico. In 1986, I worked with Ontario Soccer. I had a cartoonist inspire kids during Canada's 1986 World Cup matches with cartoons like this. 40 years later they count again. #fifa #soccer #ontariosoccer

We can't imagine what trump is capable of saying and doing. He has 3 years left to go.

Great to be quoted using my ideas on getting more value from conferences: stop making notes (that you don't look at again) and start managing your ideas. Use a good journal too.

Home batteries in Australia explained | Climate Council Home batteries allow households and businesses the flexibility of soaking up energy from the sun, storing it and using it whenever they need.

When I lived in Melbourne I was amazed by the number of houses with solar panels...4 million. Now, many are adding home batteries to capture the power when the sun is not shining: 100,000.
I cannot recall any mention of this approach in Canada. share.google/mwS30QGpzWB9...

In Ottawa today... walked on a windy and rainy day... leaves were falling ... as you say, the bare trees remain .... until spring

AN IDEA: n the 2000s I did Workshops with defense and CSE on innovative thinking and collaboration to help tech people rethink how they solve problems. Perhaps an area of study. I even spoke on this at the NSA in Washington. For Singapore min of defence I wrote an innovation guide for an event.

I was there as well.

I remember the research on something more basic: do students learn and retain more handwriting notes vs typing notes. That now seems naive compared to the possible harm of using AI for assignments... what will they be like on the job?

The first place i look for new or used books now is www.abebooks.com to find interesting and unique books from its network of bookstores.

"I have seen rock and roll's future and its name is Bruce Springsteen": Born To Run at 50 - ABC listen On the 25th of August, 1975, Bruce Springsteen released Born to Run, the "dividing line" of his career.

If you want to hear an excellent review of the Born To Run album, this is worth a listen. From Australia. The host is actually a classical composer and musical history. He hears things we don't... www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

For the many policy people and economists offering solutions for 🇨🇦 low level of innovation...here's a tip: read an innovation management textbook. You will see what you should know before you publish. #policy #innovation

How to stop killing the ideas of people who do not think like you The study of people as problem solvers rarely looks at the differences in how people solve problems and what can be learned by expanding our understanding of diversity.

With all of them political battles at the moment, this article gives a different perspective. #kirton #cognitivestyle #conflict #innovation How to stop killing the ideas of people who do not think like you share.google/NdAfIfN6Y9lm...

I agree... i design journals and still use a Canadian school notebook with graph paper, not lines. $1.50. It's a great tool for playing with ideas. And a lot cheaper than all of the "professional" notebooks.

Great finish to Ottawa #Ironman He finished far ahead of all others.

PEACE BY CHOCOLATE... this is the attitude we need to see...

I moved to nz and au for 20+ years before I returned. I discovered how interesting life is not being next to the USA. Don't like it now. Respect? No. Pity, perhaps. Watching a country decline so fast is sad.
