Alain Saffel: the journalist: Life, the elections and everything

http://alainthejournalist.blogspot.com/2008/01/life-elections-and-everything.html

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Thursday, January 17, 2008. Life, the elections and everything. I’d like to say my life has been exciting lately, but it really hasn’t. I’ve been working, packing up the house and attempting to imitate Mike Holmes around here in my renos. The move to Edmonton is really only a couple weeks away. The only really exciting thing is that I think I’m being cyberstalked. Fun huh? Aside from all that, isn’t 2008 shaping up to be an interesting year?

Alain Saffel: the journalist: 2007 in review & 2008 forecast

http://alainthejournalist.blogspot.com/2007/12/2007-in-review-2008-forecast.html

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Monday, December 31, 2007. 2007 in review and 2008 forecast. Here we are at the end of another year. Might as well do my final post on that year. It won’t be the last post on this blog, but you have probably noticed they’ve been fewer in number in the past six months. That is likely to continue as I embark on different projects in 2008. It looks like it will be an exciting year! But first, some light humour. Heard in Starbucks last night.

Alain Saffel: the journalist: Don't be so serious

http://alainthejournalist.blogspot.com/2008/01/dont-be-so-serious_04.html

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Friday, January 04, 2008. Don't be so serious. I know I should be commenting on all the serious crap going on in the world. Yeah, I know. Take a few seconds, relax, look at these comics. Laugh. It’ll all be better soon. Wait I have an ex-wife. Okay, so it's complicated. I have been accused of being over-educated and overqualified. It only means I know what I'm talking about, or does it? I'm going to check on flights to Mexico. :). Mercer for...

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Wednesday, December 05, 2007. 10 for journalism jobs on Google! It would seem that I’ve found the Holy Grail, however fleeting it might be. It seems that I am #10 on a Google search for journalism jobs. Hitting page one on any Google search is what every site wants to achieve for its targeted keywords. Obviously, my journalism job site. Would have journalism jobs as the targeted keywords. On that note, I could write a book about my dealings ...

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Monday, October 13, 2008. As you can see from the sorry state of my blog, I haven't been here in a while. This will likely be my last post, ever, here. No, I'm moving to a new blog location: http:/ alainsaffel.com. Make a note of it. That doesn't mean it will disappear though. You'll still be able to read all my pithy posts here, as long as the Great Google is willing to keep Blogger rolling. Posted by Alain Saffel at 11:24 PM. Train graffit...

Alain Saffel: the journalist: Does the news get better? Not right now.

http://alainthejournalist.blogspot.com/2008/02/does-news-get-better-not-right-now.html

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Monday, February 11, 2008. Does the news get better? How insulated will Canada be from all this? Well, people will still be driving, so Alberta should be fine. The real problem is going to be the psychology. Will people avoid going into a panic over the bad news? Doubt it. The panic will be worse among people who know they're not in good shape. Why is it that they never figure this out before everything hits the fan? 3 Invest. RRSPs, etc.

Alain Saffel: the journalist: March 2005

http://alainthejournalist.blogspot.com/2005_03_01_archive.html

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Thursday, March 31, 2005. Oil at $105 a barrel? So oil prices are "predicted" by some investment bank, Goldman Sachs to be specific, to go to $105 a barrel. Just imagine what that will do to gasoline prices. From the CBC story:. Oil prices will continue to rise, mainly due to the fact that we’re reaching the world’s peak production capacity, after which production will decline. This "super spike" I believe is a manufactured event mainly ...

Alain Saffel: the journalist: Semi-retirement and miscommunication

http://alainthejournalist.blogspot.com/2008/06/semi-retirement-and-miscommunication.html

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Saturday, June 28, 2008. I’ve really been neglecting my blog and because of the changes in my life, I’m planning on eventually rolling out another one at alainsaffel.com. That’s going to take me a bit, but it will happen. In the meantime, you can read my blogging on StumbleUpon. Where I do my work-related blogging. Of course, I’m always on Facebook. Or, are you coming to a conclusion that that person did not intend? Lately I’ve taken to maki...

Alain Saffel: the journalist: Dog Chapman and the N word

http://alainthejournalist.blogspot.com/2007/11/dog-chapman-and-n-word.html

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Alain Saffel: the journalist. Friday, November 02, 2007. Dog Chapman and the N word. I always wonder how celebrities think. It seems they get a bit of a case of megalomania, begin believing their own hype, which ends up making them a target. Case in point: Duane the Dog Chapman. I've written about him before, in particular about his problems with the Mexican "justice" system. I became a reluctant fan of the bounty hunter with a heart. Several times during that phone call.
