The Canon EOS 7D is Canon's top of the range APS-C camera. Below it sit the compact forms of the 1000D , 450D and 500D , and above it the full-frame glory of the £200 more expensive EOS 5D MKII . The big...

It has been quite a while since I’ve updated folks on the status of my Fat Pitch Financials Value Portfolio.  I launched this paper portfolio back in September of 2004 on Marketocracy with a virtual starting balance of $1 million and a per share value of $10.

Starting today, I am going to "see with new eyes" and express my thoughts and articles in pictures for the next month. I am not a professional artist (although I was a pretty good art master for my daughter's 2nd grade class last year), and my pictures may not be worth a thousand words, much less two; however, I am hoping that my pictures may lead to deeper insights and invoke more reactions.

The world around us is our home, our work, our community, our surroundings, everything that we experience daily i.e. where we live, work and play.

Starting today, get ready to experience my attempts on sharing my random thoughts on creativity and innovation in business, education, community, politics and more in pictures and images.
