A friend pointed out to me a very interesting video that describes the ten dimensions in an easy to understand way using dots, lines and a method that shows you just how each dimension stacks on top of the other. As the same friend pointed out, it’s really quite strange that we only see things as 3.5 on a scale of 10.

You can find the video here: http://tenthdimension.com/medialinks.php. If the page doesn’t load or the video doesn’t work right away, reload the page because they’ve been getting a huge amount of traffic.

The past couple of days have been rather productive. I’ve managed to write two new songs in relatively short order which means the new album now has nine completed songs. There are still a couple more on the way, but I just haven’t quite gotten around to finishing them yet. I will do that soon though I hope.

Another piece of exciting news in my life is that I’ve started preparations for a grant application and proposal to teach English to German middle school and high school students in Germany beginning next year. If I get it, I should be able to work on a Masters degree at the same time. I’m really rather excited about it, although it is a real pain to get everything together for a grant. I will definitely get through it though because it is absolutely worth it.

The BBC is reporting that Germany is exiting the recession that has affected the entire world for the past couple of years. Germany, along with France, is one of the first countries to emerge from this economic downturn and yet the German government did next to nothing to try to pull the country out of the recession.

An article in the Wall Street Journal states the German stance on it:

“Germany has the most capacity in Europe to increase spending, but Berlin has argued against running up big deficits…”

“Last year, according to the IMF, the U.S. pumped an extra 1.1% of GDP into the economy. Germany did next to nothing.”

I think the American government needs to take a page out of Germany’s book. For being a socialist country, Germany seems to have less government intervention in the economy than we do.

Apparently the Federal Government now allows itself to legally steal your computer and make it its own property for the use of domestic or foreign interests. This is all sorts of messed up. I found the video at another blog called Tom’s Place.
