NBA 2009-2010 begins TODAY!


NBA Season is starting today. Boy, am I excited.

Eddie Griffin is injured before the season opens so once again, the Clippers can't catch a break. Meanwhile, I will be rooting for Lebron and crew, having added Shaq, Moon, Parker and Green - they are tougher both defensively and offensively than last year. They should be one of the four or five hot favs to win it all.

Hate the Lakers and Kobe. Throw in Ron Artest and I hate them even more. They must be destroyed!!

San Antonio is talented but gaining on age with plenty of health issues. I see them making a run but this is not to be their year.

Boston is still the main threat if K.G. is healthy. But they do not have a better team than the Cavs this year, that is if the Cavs bench do not choke once again.

Orlando. Superman makes this team so dangerous and now they add Vince Carter (not really sure what they were thinking). I still think they are a team that can be easily handled if Dwight is contained, on the other hand, they do have a good coach so matchups problems will almost always exist.

This year will be interesting!!

婚姻是?


●婚姻是一间病房

一方精心护理着另一方,另一方怜爱心疼着对方

●婚姻是一座建筑

以爱情为原料的婚姻是一幢漂亮的别墅;以金钱为原料的婚姻是一间用钞票砌成的纸房子,经不起风吹雨打。

●婚姻是一项投资

爱情相当于注册资金,结婚证相当于营业执照,婚礼相当于开业典礼。合作情况将决定收益成败。

●婚姻是一道方程式

这是一道幸福和痛苦组成的一元二次方程。

最理想的得数是幸福大于痛苦,最糟糕的得数是痛苦大于幸福,最普遍的得数是幸福等于痛苦。

●婚姻是一局围棋

双方的段位越近,棋局切磋的时间就越长。每步棋包含了学识、修养、性格。

●婚姻是一件瓷器

做好它很费事,打破它很简单,而收拾起那些碎片又很麻烦。因此,我们应该牢记包装箱上常有的那种提示:“轻拿轻放,切勿倒置”。

●婚姻是一台冰箱

为爱保鲜,但结果把爱情放凉了。

●婚姻是一道菜肴

酸甜苦辣,百味鲜。不同的菜肴,不同之味。要用心烹调,方可达到色香美味俱全。享用时必须细细品尝。

●婚姻是一款果品

有的婚姻像橘子,剥开哪一瓣都是甜的;有的婚姻像椰子,挺大的壳原来里边没有多大甜头。

●婚姻是一座桥

相依相拥走上桥头时是青年;手牵着手走在桥上时是中年;相互搀扶走下桥时是老年。

Presentation


If you think that you've come here for laughs,
Better pick up your coats, hats and scarves,
Because, truth to tell,
I'm as boring as hell ~
And, when boring, I don't bore by halves.

My performance is dry, dull, and iffy,
And I'll have you glazed-eyed in a jiffy:
Your only defence,
If you have any sense,
Is to knock back the wine and get squiffy.

No, I don't cause uproarious applause,
Or outpourings of adoring 'encore!'s:
The only effusion
There'll be in conclusion
Is an inglorious, ignoramus chorus of snores.

Doctor, Doctor, help me please!!


Am I mentally disabled, or clinically insane?
Either way, something’s seriously wrong with my brain!
My God, you are right, I’m a little strange.
My mind is out of focus, my thoughts out of range.

There’s something quite amiss with this faulty head,
I can’t quite remember what has just been said.
I am not crazy. Words just burst out.
Pardon me, madam. I didn’t mean to shout.

Some say that I’m random! My mind drifts away!
Like the cotton clouds on a breezy summers day!
I much prefer the winter, I relish the crispy air
Mmm… crispy pancakes, where was I, you there?

There are sleepless nights of sheep, and calls to people I know.
“Go and die” they advice repeatedly, to sleep no more is so.
They won’t let me sleep, I complained. Those dreaded dead people.
Look, there’s one beside you, with a scythe and badge reaper.

So Doc, tell me truthfully, is there any hope for me?
If there is, do make it quick, ‘cause I really need to pee.

Oops! Too late.

Sorry for the floor.

Verizon Droid - Better than Iphone




It is technology day!! With all sorts of interesting innovations on the way!!

Freedom with your softwares, user-friendly interface, lighter and faster, what more can you ask for from a group effort from Verizon, Google and Motorola? It is good to see some serious competition to the Iphone, I am sick of having to pay for all the softwares that many aren't even that good.

Wasted Heat No More



Heat loss is a crime, at least to the computer nerds needing a little tweaking. Wataru Kobayashi at Waseda University in Japan and a few friends have built a rectifier that allows a heat current to travel in one direction but not the other thus controlling the insidious effects of heat in microchips.

This invention offers countless applications, such as a thermal transistor, thermal logic gates, and a thermal memory thus offering a solution to one of the biggest obstacles in high level electronics and computers (processes with intensive workloads).

I, for one, appreciate it if the computer does not lag, hang or blow up.

Samsung Electronics Develops the World’s First Single Chip for North American Mobile Digital TV Standard Approved



In today’s globalized environment, technology makes all the difference in crossing borders. In case you haven’t heard, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. have announced that it has successfully developed the world’s first single chip compatible with the newly approved North American mobile digital TV broadcasting standard.

Samsung’s latest chip innovation combines the radio frequency (RF) and digital chip components into one single 65 nanometer (nm)-scale chip. Compared to traditional multiple-chip sets, the single chip provides makers of various mobile devices including mobile phones, car-mounted televisions and portable media players an optimal solution that is more compact, uses less power, and is more affordable.

The Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) has been working towards standardizing mobile digital TV broadcasting utilizing the existing digital TV broadcasting spectrum and facilities since May 2007. After a membership vote that concluded yesterday, ATSC Mobile DTV was officially adopted as an ATSC standard.

“Prior to Samsung’s technical demonstration at the 2006 NAB Show, industry experts believed that the compatibility of mobile TV broadcasting technology with the existing ATSC broadcasting system was not possible. In early 2005, Samsung Electronics decided to apply significant resources to ATSC standardization,” said Mr. Byung Duck Cho, executive vice president of the Digital Media and Communications R&D Center of Samsung Electronics. “Samsung succeeded in ATSC Mobile DTV standardization through its dedication and support in cooperation with the ATSC, broadcasters, and other electronics manufacturers. Through this collaborative accomplishment, Samsung Electronics aims to advance its leadership in the North American mobile market with mobile TV.”

Over 70 broadcast stations have announced their support of this initiative and have agreed to broadcast on a trial basis across North America by the end of 2009. The goal is to prepare for formal broadcasting tests to North American consumers beginning in early 2010.

ATSC Mobile DTV makes live mobile broadcast TV possible by installing minimal additional equipment at existing TV transmitters while utilizing the same frequencies as current terrestrial digital TV broadcasting. ATSC Mobile DTV does not influence current DTV receivers even when operating in the same channels making it in-band compatible. It is widely considered as the best solution for mobile broadcast digital television in North America. Through mobile broadcasting, consumers will be able to access free content such as local news, emergency alerts, weather reports and entertainment as well as premium paid services.

As the couch potatoes call it, “YAY!!”.

American Decay


While witnessing the expected rapid decline of the Greenback, I am confronted with all that are wrong with the ideologies of the Americans.

First and foremost, let me give you a hint – Land of the Free. Did you get freedom? I can argue that freedom is the fundamental and critical flaw in the American ideology. From top down, democracy is the only choice for freedom seekers and it bogs down the system with inefficiency. Simply too many cooks spoil the soup and not to mention, majority of the people are incapable of differentiating propagandas and rationale. Most people are plain, bluntly put, dumb and ignorant. So the obvious problem is you have a country run by idiots chosen by idiots representing idiots. Now, if that is not a recipe for catastrophe, I don’t know what is.

Freedom accentuates differences in individual opinions creating controversies. The good news is the United States have found a way to resolve such. The bad news is, deny it all they can, the Godfather of terrorism is the one and only United States. Terrorism was created to rule. Being the leader of the developed world, whether by means of brute force, economic sanctions or political influence, the most powerful country in the world will do what it takes to keep its power. The difference is they can do it under the pretence of the protector of the greater good of mankind (ironic that they can make decisions for everyone) and they can sugarcoat their lies with lame reasons (yet no one dares to defy even though defiance will be futile as in Bush’s era). No other country is as nosy as the US which seems to think they can run every country better than they can themselves. One has to wonder how they get the time when their own homeland issues are unresolved.

For example, there is the creation of debt to buy what really can’t be afforded so every American can have a home and live the life they want. For some reason, they seem to believe that they can enjoy eternal economic growth at a greater rate than the interest of debt. In other words, they do not think they need to pay in the end (marked by the ridiculously trillions of national debt US owed). The question is who is paying for the hundreds of billions of dollars spent on space exploration, weapon enhancements and keeping Wall Street happy.

But somehow they have survived while other countries have not with the level of debt. Why and how? It’s really quite simple. The trigger-happy United States can conjure up any whack excuse to exercise their dominance. I might add, whoever came up with the idea to sell on fear is a genius. Selling arms of war to those in need is not only highly profitable, it also reinforces the need for US to be more totalitarian and to build more deadly weaponry which leads to even more need to sell arms of war. It’s a beautiful money making and power building cycle.

Wake up and smell the flowers, America. There are people living with less than a dollar a day, eating less than one meal a day, no home, no job and no future. They were born to live a slow and agonizing death. They are the results of the exploitation. There are other pressing issues of pollution and global warming, overpopulation, diseases and scarcity of resources which conditions are deteriorating by the second. You can preach freedom, equality and prosperity all you want, but at the end of the day, you better get your priorities straight because times are different and you are no longer the all almighty you once were.
