Alberta Bubble: And then they'll say they never saw it coming
http://albertabubble.blogspot.com/2010/01/and-then-theyll-say-they-never-saw-it.html
Analysis of the real estate bubble in Alberta. Thursday, January 7, 2010. And then they'll say they never saw it coming. Almost all the 'institutional liars' claim that they never saw the financial crisis coming. In the Canadian context, we were told that there won't be any recession. Prior to that, circa 2007, there was not even a brief mention of a housing bubble anywhere, except at places like this blog. In local Calgary classified for a 50 year old apartment building:. 4 One Bedroom Suites 600 sf /-.

Liquid Landscape: December 2005
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 30, 2005. Posted by Develo @ 11:02 PM. Wednesday, December 28, 2005. Sens vs. Rangers. We flew out of Winnipeg early on Boxing Day accompanied by Lyndsay and Dave. They'll be our first guests from the west to check out our digs in Ottawa. We've got their schedules packed full of things to see, fully taking advantage of the excuse to be tourists in our own town. Posted by Develo @ 10:39 AM. Tuesday, December 27, 2005. It's good to see a local guy done well with his company, and what a wel...

Liquid Landscape: April 2006
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 20, 2006. In the evening we checked out Marine drive in White Rock, going for supper at a hip seafood restaurant called the Boathouse. Afterwards, we just had to stroll up Elm street to see if Sophie could find the old house she used to live in back in the late 70's. Posted by Develo @ 8:34 PM. Thursday, April 13, 2006. Some highlights from the last month or so. It's been forever since I sat down to post anything, and according to the blog, we haven't left Perth yet, nevermind the big...

Liquid Landscape: September 2006
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 28, 2006. This trip has been a bit different for us for a few reasons; Greg has been on his own in preparing the earth station for the missions he came out for, which means more work and stress. As well, we found out we're pregnant only days after arriving! So we didn't go very far. This thankfully only lasted until about weeks 9-10, and we still got out to see what we could. Posted by Develo @ 1:10 AM. Tuesday, September 26, 2006. Vancouver, Hong Kong, Singapore.Oz! On July 4th, we s...

Liquid Landscape: August 2006
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 28, 2006. Hardly. It's an odd position to be in.to say that I genuinely enjoy my work, but that it is unrealistic to expect anyone to work these hours. In good-ol' small town fashion, our kitchen and fridge were overwhelmed by soups, buns, pickles, lasagna, burritos, and mountains of cookies in the days following the funeral. I don't think we had to worry about preparing a meal for at least a week. On Saturday morning, we checked out the weekend markets that are held within the labrynth of...

Liquid Landscape: October 2006
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 22, 2006. At the beginning of Oct. was the Perth Royal Show. A big deal in these parts; the pics give an idea of why! The show coincides with when the kids start their 2-week spring school holidays, so it's high on the list of things to do to keep the family entertained. It reminded me a bit of the Brandon Fair, and what the Red River Ex used to be like. Some history, taken from one of the Show's websites:. The 'showbag', which became part of Australian shows as an advertising gimmick and...

Liquid Landscape: January 2006
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 19, 2006. Being a local in Ottawa can allow you to get into all the national museums for cheap if you're selective about when you go. Each major museum has a unique day of the week where the admission fees are super cheap, so it's a good excuse to get outside in the evenings. On Sunday we went to check out the brand-spanking new Canadian War Museum. Posted by Develo @ 10:22 PM. Tuesday, January 10, 2006. In the evening, we went to check out a band called Cauterize. After 4 hours of open...

Liquid Landscape: February 2006
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 27, 2006. For all those that are interested in the Arabsat 4A launch campaign, the big event is set for 20:10 GMT on Tuesday, February 28th. This would correspond to 2:10 pm Winnipeg time (noon B.C.) on Tuesday afternoon. The webcast will likely start 1/2 hour prior to the actual liftoff. Here's the link. Posted by Develo @ 8:31 PM. Saturday, February 25, 2006. Posted by Develo @ 7:25 AM. The day was marked with these ever-present thunderstorms that actually produced very little rain....

Liquid Landscape: November 2005
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 26, 2005. Posted by Develo @ 9:35 AM. On Friday, I was finally able to get a photo of one of many Kangaroos that are living around the site. It seems like I have to either get to the site before 7 am, or leave after 7 pm in order to see them out of the bush. Just before I saw this guy, I came across a Bobtail skink. Posted by Develo @ 9:13 AM. Posted by Develo @ 8:42 AM. Wednesday, November 23, 2005. Of course, pictures would be better - I'll see what I can do. Thursday, November 17, 2...

Liquid Landscape: July 2006
http://liquidlandscape.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 03, 2006. Guess who turned 30 on June 8th? I was hoping for another one of these fine machines, just like on my 8th birthday, but I think they cost like a million dollars nowadays. Posted by Develo @ 6:22 PM. Saturday, July 01, 2006. Plett's white glove tour. I'm glad our trip coincided with the poetry reading events, even though I didn't get to all of them. Paul was heading off to Banff to be a writer in residence at the Banff Centre for several weeks just before we left. I took the day off...
