About

This Blog contains random thoughts that precede my columns for Pomerado Press published columns.

In effect they are unedited doodling about current events, because I like to see what subject matter most interests my newspaper readers, and I know that they do not have either the time I have for research or sometimes the range of experience I have in military, entrepreneurial, corporate, academic and non-profits. I have all of that experience because I AM OLD!

In the vein of “No man is a hero to his valet” my wife of 51 years simply says, “He can’t keep a job!”

Sigh!

One advantage to me is this Blog provides unrestricted space for thoughts that do not easily expand to 500 words to fit a “news hole” for my newspaper column, and of course some thoughts are far too complicated for 500 words.

But in any case, your comments will tell me which subjects touch a nerve, and those are the ones that will turn into a newspaper column.

So, we will let the Blog evolve.

I saw on one of your other about pages that you have taught computer science. I have some basic programming skills, but I would like to improve further. Since most of my work will likely be in matlab and vba, I don’t think I need to learn low level coding like c, but I was wondering if there are resources you would recommend for learning more about algorithms and efficiency in programming.

I am particularly interested in simulations and model building.
