Environment is important, Persistance is so

The begining of human nature is kind. Though the nature is similar but the habit differs. The nature will diverge from kindness if there is no proper education.

There was a mum who chose the neighbour just for her son's education. She stopped and cut off her weaving, when she knows her son's dropped off from school.

Nostalgia

It might be because that I am already old, though only in my early stage of 30s, I always miss the old stories.

It might be because I am already old, though only in my early 30s, I enjoy the time with my old friends, and, am reluctant to know more new people.

It might be because I am full of emotions, I always miss the brook brought me up and the small village fed me for 20 years.

It can't be swept away from the memory. It can't be forgotten easily, the small village, standing in the snowing strong wind; the little school, standing on the only highland.

It seems that I couldn't find another well so sweet as the one the village; it seems that nowhere has been so warm as that little house that gave birth to me.

I have been sleeping in the moutain guarding our fruits; I have been ploughing the field for more products; I have been missing the little hometown a little...

My IQ test result

The Classic IQ Test
alex, your IQ score is 127

alex, your IQ score is significantly above average.
Congratulations! You have a wide range of exceptional skills which are much stronger than those of the average population. You are also skilled at answering the types of questions that are asked in a classic IQ test. The test analyses your strengths and weaknesses based on your mathematical, linguistic, visual-spatial and logical skills. Even though you have high scores in all of those areas, we are able to analyse your results to discover the areas in which you have the strongest abilities.

You've got a very experiential way of learning and a strong mathematical mind. You're able to whittle even the most complex situation down to comprehensible component parts. In short, you have mastered the art and science of precision. That's what makes you a Precision Processor.

For you, life is a series of equations. Your brain is naturally predisposed to intense mathematical acuity, and your understanding of numerical problems is unparalleled. It's second nature for you to cut to the heart of an issue, so that you can discover quick solutions to problems while others get bogged down in unnecessary details. One precision processor that comes to mind is the Greek philosopher-mathematician, Pythagoras. Pythagoras had a mind for numbers and, as such, could come up with previously unknown theories like his method for calculating the sides of a right triangle (a2+b2=c2).

You too, can use numbers to translate aspects of the world around you -- something that doesn't come easily to everyone. Your quick mathematical mind will allow you to communicate a variety of ideas to other people, so don't keep it to yourself.

Global Warming

These days, people are talking a lot about global warming and also greenhouse effect. But what are they?

CO2 and other gases in the atmosphere trap heat energy that would otherwise escape to space. This is called the greenhouse effect. Most people agree the greenhouse effect will increase the Earth's average global temperature. This is called global warming.
(from Here )

BBC radio four is talking about how huge the volume is or how many mols are there for 1 ton CO2 and how many tons a car makes in a year's time, this afternoon. I don't think it makes much sense since plants are digesting CO2 anyway, so , if there is the balance, then there would be no problem.
So, the change of the figures that CO2 's concentration in the air in the past decades will persuade more people.

So, I believe there are two ways of Anti Global Warming rather than one:

I: Reduce the waste, reduce the pollution that we make to the earth, reuse resources, recycle them after usage.
II: Plant more plants, especially protect the sea plants, since they even contribute more to the CO'2 consumption and created more O2 for us.

Jokes around life

One day, a girl called the hotel I work for, "is the Managing director there called Jenny?" I said, Yes. ARE YOU JENNY? I said, No. ( Isn't jenny supposed to be a girl's/lady's name?)

Another girl called. Do you have a vacancy tonight? I said NO, we are fully booked. " Perfect, bye!" She said. (What does perfect mean? Madam?)

A lady called. Can I check avaliability with you? I said, " YES. On which day, please?"
' Oh,' she said, ' Can I call you back about that?' (what did she think about before calling?)

Sorry, London

Life sometimes is like so, up and down, on and off.

People just celebrated the cheer of being granted to host of 2012 olympic games, then there came the disaster which disrupted the city of London, and even the whole UK.

We feel sorrow to those people who have been affected or even killed but as many of the bloggers saying, life is life, we have to carry on.

My wife was in the tube(underground train) at the moment when the first or second bomb blasted. But she wasn't scared at all since nobody knew it was an attack but a disruption of power supply. She then was stopped to a nearest gate after 20 or 30 mins stuck in the tube, and walked to her office which wasn't too far, luckily.

There is a wish, there was no war in Iraq, not anywhere; there was no terrorists attack, not anywhere.

Congratulations to London

It is London who is going to host the Olympic in 2012. I bet some samll amount of money in Ladbrokes on London yesterday and a little more on Paris since it is the favorite from the IOC's evalution and inspections.

Overall I lost finacially. But I am happy for London since I live in this county now.

This is the first time I opened the online account in a gambling company's website and had a bet, probably the last time since I found the Odds is very odd.

It must be a pain for French people, cos they did work very hard towards the application and Paris was so near in the last stage.

In the second round, Madrid has once been leading but then was eliminated, so, you can see, sometimes it just depends, nothing has certainty...

This may lead us to think someone's say: There is only one rule doesn't change, that is everything changes...

Museums

Science museum, like most of the others in London, is free for entry. It is always amazing to visit it and sigh for the unbelievable achievements of human being and the colorful of the world itself. Scientists' hard work and intelligence made the world more beautiful today, made the life earsier for us today, made it possible for human beings to know more, about ourselves, about the universe...

Nature History Museum is similarly amazing. Thanks for the donators that could make the free entry possible and the goverment's support for fundings, simply to show the complex nature to people and families and bring them the unmeasured joys. Have you ever met a real dianosaur? Have you seen many many wonders of the world, like fossil wood, zoolite, rare ore, at one glance? Come to the nature history museum then.

And, what is more, you may like to visit the British Museum as well...
