Ouch...
热度 1 虞左俊 2012-6-19 01:41
Ouch, my tongue got cut off. Yeah, that's how I feel right now when I saw my comment (Comment #29) to 吕喆 's Blog on “ 神七 ” 太空行走 got deleted. WHY? All I did was to provide two YouTube links that question some minor details seen in the spacewalk video. Gosh, ...

inbox zero: Is this also your dream?
虞左俊 2012-6-12 15:28
Background: I have more than 1,000 email messages in my inbox. I would be a lot happier if it's less than 1,000, which I tried when I had some time to kill. But, I never dreamed of having zero messages in my inbox. Now, I may actually have found a solution... inbox z ...

History shall not be forgotten...
虞左俊 2012-6-5 05:32
I learned some history while I was in schools in China, including the four years in college. In fact, what I did was to re-learn recent history during those 10+ years, because the textbook was revised very often: Every time when a party VIP was kicked out, the history needed to be revised. Well, C ...

A very productive day...
虞左俊 2012-6-4 15:37
Ever since I returned from China two weeks ago, I worked and worked. (Here, working means finishing a research paper that is nicknamed TPTNE--the paper or project that never ends.) I worked on both Saturday and Sunday after I returned on Friday, and I worked last weekend and again this weekend. ...

How to lose gracefully
虞左俊 2012-5-30 11:22
No one likes to lose. Right? When I was forced to switch my "cable TV" from OC to HT, I also switched my internet service (with promised higher speed and a bit lower cost). When the switch is done (with a bit of pain watching two guys trying to figure out why my telephone no longer worked), I dec ...

Should loyalty count for something?
虞左俊 2012-5-27 07:25
Yes, in Macy's case, it counted for $25 (late fee dismiss). I was away for too long and missed a payment by one day. It's my fault, and I expected a penalty. The new bill came in today, and I felt I should at least give them a call. (Normally, I hate to call 1-800 numbers because I don't like to ta ...

The air quality from Beijing to Qingdao on May 10th
虞左俊 2012-5-10 22:31
My eyes saw smog, which got much worse as the train D337 approached Tianjin South. The visibility was not much improved until the train arrived at Weifang, the last but one station. From there, one could tell the sky was (lite) blue. As the train entered Qingdao, the sky was getting bluer. Suddenly ...

Good-bye, Beijing's bad air...
虞左俊 2012-5-10 06:54
I look out of my window everyday for three days, and all I can see is smog. I am on the 10th floor. Maybe the air on a 100th floor would be better? I wonder what those VVIPs in the central government see. Are they so blind? What do they breath day in day out? What if, we all sign our names and de ...
