I just read this article: Today’s Bear Market Now Not As Bad As The Great Crash! Here is their graph: From businessinsider.com Looking at our current blue line, I think we are getting really close to the Great Depression line. Wait, hold on… I think we overlapped !!! And we overlapped because we just had a March rally! Be warned… A historical big crash is coming, something to the magnitude of the Great Depression if not worse. ...

If you want to dig deeper into these financial background details, you can check out these Whiteboard videos yourself. ...
I read this interesting article, suggesting that spending is as important as saving. You have heard of buyer’s remorse, but holding back too much will lead to regrets years later as well. Here is the article: If You Save Too Much — You Might Regret It Later! http://consumerist.com/5182167/if-you-save-too-much–you-might-regret-it-later Well, I will give you one more reason to spend at recession like ours right now. You know one way the US is handling the foreign debt is to simply print more dollar bills? How much are they printing? Hold your breath, and watch this fox news clip. ...
In case you missed this, in a security conference called Pwn2Own 2009, Safari/MacBook falls in seconds. Here is the link: http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=2917 According to Miller the winner, “It took a couple of seconds. They clicked on the link and I took control of the machine.” He describes Safari as “easy pickin’s”. I think at least for a while people should not flippantly say that macs are more secure than windows. But just to be fair, windows’ IE 8 also got broken into a little while afterward by another hacker. ...
If you want to use custom message on your iphone screen with Server Lock Example, here is how you do it. (My phone is 3G, firmware 2.2.1) First download a Terminal app, then download vim (or any text editor). Assuming you have Winterboard and have Server Lock Example turned on, we are now ready to go! Run Terminal, then cd /Library/Themes/Server Lock Example.theme/ Run " ls -l", you will see that there is a file called LockBackground.html. However it is owned by “root”, and you are “mobile”. So, let’s su as root then. The password is “alpine”. ...

You must be kidding me! I was shocked when I read this article this morning. Johnston says he and Bristol broke up after ‘fight’ http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2009/03/16/johnston-says-he-and-bristol-broke-up-after-fight/ I thought they were pretty committed??? I once criticized about their coming together. [ post] And now, after a fight, they decided to break up? Quote: “We were just, we were in a fight,” he said. “And trying to see if we can make things work. But this is what it kind of ended up turning into. But we’ll see what happens. ...
[youtube &rel=0&color1=0xcc2550&color2=0xe87a9f&hl=en&feature=player_embedded&fs=1] 有一個農場主人，巡視穀倉時遺留下了金錶，之後他就張貼了告示，誰把金錶找回就得到一千元的報酬，農場入面的工人知道了，都紛紛興高彩烈地跑到穀倉幫農場主人找金錶。起初大家都拼勁十足，一直拼命地找，但始終沒發現，放慢了速度，有些人就覺得個穀倉太大，有些人就覺得那隻金錶太細，有些人甚至覺得是稻草太多，於是一個又一個失望地離去。最後剩下一個小孩，小孩心想他一定要得到這一千元，因為一千元足夠他一家人一個月餬口，但是他找了一天，真的太累了，坐在地上休息一會。突然，耳邊傳來了「滴答…滴答…」的聲音，小孩立即振作起來，一步一步走向傳出聲音的地方。最後，小孩找到了金錶也得到了農場主人一千元的奬金。 在我們日常繁忙的工作中如果能讓自己停一停，冷靜地思考一下，一定會有幫助。有平靜的心，就容易留意一些平時被忽略的細節，有時候這些小節就是成功的關鍵。
