Claim The Earth

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms;
And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,

突然想起来，觉得是一种美好的心境。

古铜色的阳光 在高原上奔跑
你拥有多少青春的自豪

那洁白的三角帆 已告别了风暴
你拥有多少自信的微笑
。。。。。。

柠檬色的波涛 在冰河下呼啸
你拥有多少迷人的线条

当绿色的驼铃声 在沙漠里轻摇
你拥有多少梦境的美妙

-- 摘自歌曲《让明天为我们骄傲》

It is hard to believe that it was a year ago that the last blog entry has been entered. In the age of Twitter and Facebooks, it becomes increasingly difficult to write blogs of several paragraphs. The uncertainty of the operation at 360.yahoo.com didn't help. Fortunately, those 360.yahoo blogs were not totally destroyed.

For blogs that were migrated from 360.yahoo.com to profiles.yahoo.com, the default setting is "unpublished", therefore web surfers or search engines could not see them for all that period of time, without somebody press the "publish" button. Oh, well.

I used to have a problem with double cursor when working on a Java software development project.  Today I saw the same problem happening on Google Chrome for Linux (Ubuntu).  The application isn't developed in Java, most likely.  What caused it?

Like in a long lasting Marathon race, these are the leaders of the first pack at the moment.

It's been a long time since the last blog entry, since I entered this smart phone development trial and experiment. It will be nice to get a list of all the phones with accelerometer. . . iPhone, G1, Blackberry storm, Nokia N97, what else?

It seems like Yahoo 360 is not supporting this either, like Microsoft Live/Spaces. But Google/Blogger is supporting embedded game.

After Einstein published his Theory of Relativity, many writers and artists started interpreting the idea of "time travel" in their own complicated romantic ways. And many physics professors also tried to join the choir to discuss the equations and possibilities behind it. But was the Einstein trying to tell everybody that "time" is just another dimension no different from "space"?

It's Chinese New Year this past week and when friends, co-workers greeted me with Happy New Year, I simply gave them the standard Chinese answer of 同喜, which meant "Happy together".

Then I went on to the Internet and searched for "Happy together" on YouTube and realized if you told folks to be Happy together, this is what they will do -- be like Turtles (龟, 王八) ! ? Translation literally is always a problem.

One IT department that I worked in had many standard greetings:

Q: How are you?

A1: Oh, finer than a frog's hair split three ways.

A2: Ya-freakin-hoo

A3: Having more fun than humanly imaginable

Then the geeks got together and thought they should come up with more. Starting from the group of system administrators:

Q: What's up?

A: Nothing is up, everything is down.

Q: What's happening?

A: Everything, they are really happening now . . . (or one can say shituff is happening)

Q: What's going on?
