After 3 days, many rides and teaching in such cold weather as -30 after wind chill, Edmond is certified as a Level 1 snowboarding instructor.

It's not the end of the journal, just the beginning of further self improvement and enlightenment.

Yeah... start seeing ads on the Moreover RSSs I subscribe to. It sucks.

Let's hope it's not going to come to the point that spoil the fun of using RSS (hints: Too much ad hurts).

Read this from JKotR, it surprises me that actually I should not fully drain my batteries for a full recharge often..... maybe once every 30 charges.

How to prolong lithium-based batteries

Yeah... should have post this a while back, as I got some tips from Uncle Nick the last time I were there.

- Cold white fish, those from Loblaws, stream without seasoning, put into fridge afterward, served with some peanut sause or vinegar.
- Fish/chicken lightly cover in flour, pan fry
- Chinese vegatables can be cooked and bagged into the freezer... so to serve fast by heating up in microwave and prevent it spoil quickly. Of course, it won't be as good as freshly cooked.....

Going to try it sometimes....

So, I'm installing Skpye (here) on my Linux laptop to see how well this VoIP client works. So far, it seems quite easy to use, only need to open 1 port on the DSL router for incoming call. Netmeeting is not even working in this setup...

Setup MlDonkey to be access via the Web. This is done by adding redirection in Apache:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/mldonkey$ /mldonkey/ [R,L]
RewriteRule ^/mldonkey/(.*)$ http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^https?://[^/]+/mldonkey/
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /mldonkey/$1 [R,L]

Updated to v0.18. All needed is to gunzip + tar xf the package, run the install.php, and re-apply the search and favicon patch I use.

It's supporting feed list sorting now, no longer need my hack.

Cool!

It's how I'd like to work and live..... the geek style.

I always dream of working for N*l while living anywhere in the world, but still able connect to and work with people in Ottawa.

One note, the only one place I do not want this lifestyle to follow me is when I'm hitting the wilderness..... No, it's just wrong to bring computer when camping, or checking email at the camp site.

Wired News: Her So-Called Digital Life

Sometimes you just don't know whether to believe what you've been told on the news. I mean, they may not be telling you lie, but the truth maybe far from a 5 minutes reporting can reveal.

We should all know by now war is ugly. Unfortunate things happen in a daily basis in these circumstances. It's all too confusing and the truth is so hard to tell, whether or not from the misleading "truth" .

Everyone should get the fact and be the judge for himself. It's the only fair way.
