Digital curtain

So you can wake up and feel like living in matrix. (Link)

Previous digital accessory for geek. (Link) They are perfect match.

Robot snake makes ultimate secret agent

This robosnake invented by some Russian student is beyond description with my English vocabulary level. It moves forward, backward, sideway with amusing break-dance action. My opinion it makes an entertaining toy for kids as well as a near perfect espionage/exploration tool.

I love their choice of music for the demonstration.

Rule the world with one dark language

I have a short meeting with CP a while ago. We discuss about some world’s views, highlight of our collective view points,

Man did not lived together in harmony just because they speak the same language, wars like American civil war, Vietnam war, China civil war, etc, they fought each other for ideology. They speak the same language.

I do not have to speak your language to understand you, neither do you.

Scary Spokeo reveals all your online activities

I signup Spokeo today, and I want to tell you. It is my most horrific online experience ever. This social networking site can find whatever online “friends” you have and show you every darn thing they did, even they have only contacted you once.

Let say, you apply for a job, and make the greatest mistake by giving your only webmail to a company. Now your blog, Web 2 services; some forum you visited can now be view via Spokeo. It is like a naked nightmare.

This sure makes our law enforcer’s job a little easier.

I posted this screen shot of Singapore most famous blogger, Mr Brown’s twitter usage, whom I now know a little more about him via Spokeo. No harm meant.

There is no place for me to hide liao.

Singapore unhealthy healthy paper

狮城健康报I was approached by a boy during my supper last night. I bought his paper and found that he was primary two, studying at a nearby neighborhood school. The “狮城健康报”was good, but not so good if an 8 years old kid have to sell it in hawker center.

Animal rights group at Causeway Point

Acres is a NGO registered by Singaporean. I happened to be at their booth and flickered at their displays. According to a volunteer, thousand bears were confined within cages in China, Vietnam and Korea, a hole was drilled through their stomach so bile drips down to a 'harvesting' tray below. They are collected for traditional Chinese medicine.

Bears are left to their death, then cut into pieces and parts sold separately.

You have to make sure your bile cannot cure AIDS, or wish you are dead before they find out.

Attributes of Human

Kevin Kelly has this great piece about Humanity, in the article he talks about how modern technology and science had shape us and in time, also blurs our inner self. Is there a description for true human, where human rights is applicable only to a qualify one?

In his article he lays out his themes,

“The two basic topics which fascinate me are "What is reality?" and "What constitutes the authentic human being?" Over the twenty-seven years in which I have published novels and stories I have investigated these two interrelated topics over and over again. I consider them important topics. What are we? What is it which surrounds us, that we call the not-me, or the empirical or phenomenal world?”

You can read some of them in BoingBoing. The rest you should figure out soon. (Link)

Sunbath Day: I am the darkest

Beware, because my constant exposure to the real nature of this world, I am almost the most “unfair” Chinese you ever see.

How to know you are egoistic beyond hope

I have been reading Dumb Little Man for some time. Today he provides 7 signs that I am in fact, the best of the best, top of marslow chart, enlighten being. Are you?

Every thing I do. I will not fail.
I predicted all. I knew all.
Whenever I do something myself, it will be done correctly.
I was never wrong.
Whatever I didn’t do, it is not main stream. It is for greater good.
Everyone around me has wrong perceptions.
This is all a big evil conspiracy against me. You are all bad.

How God speaks to you

You keep complaining why he never speaks directly to you. It also seem like he is not on your side. Maybe you didn’t get the right person on your side, or might have followed the wrong guy. Did you plug in properly?

DNA discovered that may turn human to Sexadactyly

I always felt our creator is unfair. Why he cannot create human with wings? Now I can tell you why, it is so our Scientist can breakthrough DNA code and make everyone unique, different.

Today in news a UW-Madison Science team found Sonic Hedgehog, genetic digits that make hexadactyly. Think about the possibility once every code is discovered, you may like to grow a unicorn horn on your son’s head, or gives your daughter a pair of fin on her back. DDI! You can create a whole your human race.

You tell me. (Link)

lostin poem - total darkness


遮天论

我能
只手盖天下
用我的名
敞开地狱的门墙

我想
悄悄与你讲
用我的名
让它在空谷回荡

从这里,传到那方
仍在我掌上
地极处,尽天涯
无处是你家

你看
此地没有一丝光
我是
唯一的希望
和悲伤



笔者虚言: 拿式预言,一九九九年另七月,恐怖大王往从天而降。末日没有了,你心里还剩下多少希望?
