BILAN DE L'ANNÉE 2024 -
Par Bernard Bujold -
Je peux dire que l'année 2024 aura été pour moi une belle année!
Le bonheur est toujours une perception individuelle et malheureusement le bonheur des uns est souvent le malheur pour d’autres.
En ce qui concerne mon bonheur, la victoire de Donald Trump fut pour moi le couronnement de mon année. D’ailleurs tout au long de 2024, mon instinct me disait constamment que Donald remporterait l'élection du 5 novembre dernier, et j'assume une certaine fierté à être l’un des rares à avoir projeté avec précision, dès la fin du mois de septembre, la victoire de 312 grands électeurs pour Donald Trump avec les sept États clé.
La victoire est probablement le plus euphorique des bonheurs, avec celui de l’amour…
Mon admiration envers Donald n'a cependant rien à voir avec son programme politique, mais c'est son caractère qui me séduit. J'aime les gens qui sont rebelles et combatifs devant les obstacles. Donald représente un peu le légendaire cowboy de l'Ouest face à la vie, tout comme l'est Elon Musk, un autre personnage que j'admire tout autant que Donald. À une autre époque dans la vie et plus près de moi, Pierre Péladeau (le père) était lui aussi, de par son style et son caractère bagarreur, une forme de Donald Trump, et j’avais envers lui une profonde admiration et une grande amitié.
Si j'ai une conclusion à mon regard du passé et des grands personnages que j'ai observés, connus ou côtoyés, c'est qu'il faut être hors norme pour changer le monde!
Au revoir à l’année 2024!

REVIEW OF THE YEAR 2024-
By7 Bernard Bujold
The year 2024 was a great year for me!
Happiness is always an individual perception; unfortunately, one person's happiness is often another's misfortune.
As far as my happiness is concerned, Donald Trump's victory was the crowning glory of my year. In fact, throughout 2024, my instinct was constantly telling me that Donald would win the November 5 election, and I take a certain pride in being one of the few to have accurately projected, as early as the end of September, a 312-voter victory for Donald Trump with the seven key states.
Victory is probably the most euphoric of joys, along with love...
My admiration for Donald, however, has nothing to do with his political program, but it's his character that appeals to me. I like people who are rebellious and combative in the face of obstacles. In a way, Donald represents the legendary Western cowboy in the face of life, as does Elon Musk, another character I admire just as much as Donald. At another time in my life and closer to home, Pierre Péladeau (the father) was also a form of Donald Trump, in terms of style and fighting spirit, and I had a deep admiration and friendship for him.
If I have one conclusion to draw from my view of the past and the great people I've observed, known, or rubbed shoulders with, it's that you have to be outside the norm to change the world!
Farewell to 2024!

The topic 'Human Perception' is what I've chosen to study in Studio Arts this year. This is made from one photograph of me, just flipped around. It's to represent the two contrasting sides of how we can be percieved. There is this feminine beauty that so many of us live up to, the stereotypical features, which is what the left side would hopefully represent. The right side is a more down-to-earth, realistic view on somebody.
Human tend to perceive things schematically which leads to judging. Our biased visual perception may at times lead to the wrong attribution. The above image shows us a photo which is flipped horizontally and with a toy in the middle. Only colors differentiate them but how does the human eyes perceive it? At the end of the day, it is still the same image n the same toy.
25/01/2019 - Tax morale measures taxpayer perceptions and attitudes towards paying and evading taxes. Our current work on tax morale outlines several factors that may influence people’s willingness to pay taxes and highlights several policy considerations.
The Task Force on Tax and Development organised this conference on the role of tax morale in development which introduced new research undertaken by the OECD on the drivers of tax morale in developing countries.
The event brought together government representatives, leading academics and researchers, regional tax organisations, business and civil society, in a multi-stakeholder environment to share experiences and thinking on tax morale.

The moment in the story Snow White in which she eats the poison apple, is a situation that intrigues me because it offers a unique challenge – to capture beauty in a subject when they are at their weakest and most vulnerable.
Upon eating the poison apple, Snow White lies drugged, defenseless, and conscious of the evil that has been done to her, yet she still retains her status as the most beautiful woman of all. It’s a kind reminder that even at our lowest points in life, we still have within us the ability to be captivating, have influence, and maintain dignity.
It was also important to not overlook the significance of the apple. It’s one of those rare instances in which something that typically embodies goodness appears sinister. It’s an enlightening example of how context can alter the perception of an object.

This day marks, in my perception, the real inception of my gender transition and love for myself.
(這一天是我眼中的gender transition以及喜愛自己開始.)
She felt so flattered when praised by her friend, who, also a female, took this photo, for the serene beauty and the tenderness that abounded in her countenance and exuded off her eyes.
Another friend's fiancée, who didn't know Henrietta before, upon the first glance of the photo, said, "basically I think (she's) a female..." "(she) REALLY is a male-looking woman..." and "that person SIMPLY feels like a female."
We often take our developed perception of an object's weight for granted. It's amazing to witness someone who hasn't lost her curiosity of things.
Important notes here: 1) MHG specifically dismisses Rimington et al’s ideas of color/note correspondence. 2) MHG cites prior art in rheostats, making it clear that she saw her innovation as improving it to take into account the viewer’s perception of the dimming curve (“eye’s seeing curve.”
