Bottled Water: The 'Marketing Trick of the Century' (now offline)

After decades of strong growth, bottled water has surpassed soda as the largest beverage category in the U.S., according to a recent report by research and consulting firm Beverage Marketing Corporation. Bottled water consumption hit a high of 39.3 gallons per capita last year.

14 reasons bottled water is one of the biggest scams of the century (now offline as well)

There's nothing quite like the feeling of pure, ice-cold hydration. Some of us get our water for free from the tap. The rest pay for it -- at the cost of roughly $100 billion a year. At that steep a price tag, you might assume buying the bottled stuff would be worth it.

WHO launches plastics health review

The World Health Organization is to launch a review into the potential risks of plastic in drinking water. It will assess the latest research into the spread and impact of so-called microplastics - particles that are small enough to be ingested. It comes after journalism organisation Orb Media found plastic particles in many major brands of bottled water.

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC)

The lifestyle in Croatia is a little bit different, we don't drink bottled water, but rather pipeline water. I'm afraid that the problem of plastic particles in water also exists, and I kindly ask authorities to check it out.

My view of reducing bureaucracy: #opengov

Open Government Partnership |

For the Open Government Partnership model to work, lots of people need to get involved.

I look forward to "Paperless country (e-Croatia)", a project similar to Paperless office, scheduled to start in 2020. I hope there will be no delays or setbacks. I'm not fully familiar with its roadmap but I hope it will reduce bureaucracy (psychocracy) and increase competition and new ideas in the market.

Automated and open administration will eradicate organized crime with proper settings.

Do you remember Microsoft's "Office Assistant"? - A few people actually used it, but I think now it would be nice to have some guidance and assistance through life (getting the right document from one office to another) to get things done, especially if you are a business owner.

Clippit, the default assistant, in Office 2000/XP/2003 (after the makeover). Clippit is asking if the user needs help, from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My view of sending astronauts back to the Moon

The Moon is seismically active, moonquakes are often and last a long time, please be careful. New building materials should be used there for the construction. #SaveTheMoon 😃

I'm positive that this step of sending astronauts back to the Moon will open the doors to the Universe for many ordinary people as well.

In this busy world, there are some things said unclearly regarding Information Age and Job Market. It's a win-win situation. I want to believe in lifelong learning and in the real value of "know-how", there should be (Universal) Basic Income available to motivate work.  A.I. can fail in some simple tasks (not to know how to do something) and there is no need for the people to feel threatened by Information Age technology. For example fifteen years after the Dot-com bubble people are employed by Dot-coms, it is a vivid industry 😃

The World Bank forecasts global economic growth by more than 3 percent for the next year.

In time, the market will be reformed, bringing educated people to populate the Solar System all around. I believe that the problem of energy supply will be solved with fusion because there are lots of investments and results are showing. Allegedly, water was found on asteroids, moons, and planets, it can be a common occurrence.

I don't think that the Universe is the last big market, there must be more. In the meantime, I'm sure it can constrain those big NASDAQ high-tech companies from getting filthy rich.

Reaching & loving (reblog 2015.)

Miles of moonwalks & two phonecalls
She comes to me & then we'll see.

Cheap talks & neat drinks
She smiles to me & want more to be.

No tripping & tender kissing
She looks so pretty, so candy & so horny!

Finaly feeling free & she'll text me!

Get a job Simone (reblog 2015.)

Inhaling smoke, exhaling life
A humble plant has more love.

Endless greed overtakes senseless being
Old-fashioned drama 4u I'm foreseeing.

What to do
Haven't got a clue?

My view of the Atmospheric Incubator (Particles Deflector) as a part of terraforming (reblog 2015., edited)

Although Atmospheric Incubator is a hypothetical megastructure, it's not as big as a Dyson sphere.
