This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

Nearly everyone knows that the U.S. isn't squeaky-clean in its motives in its military interventions abroad.
Hopefully in the wake of the tragic Boston Marathon bombing, the U.S. government recognizes the importance of no more meddling in other sovereignties' affairs.

Asia has long been hailed as an uprising economy and a prosperous continent.
But now I for one am not sure if disasters in Asia will break out down the road.

Perhaps the open source Linux will eventually be the razer of the expensive desktop Mac OS.
One omen for Mac OS' declining popularity can be found at After 'astonishingly' poor quarter, Mac sales predicted to rebound.
A TV screen hanging in a coffee shop presents a window to the world outside the little beverage room.
The device is fine. But the programs which run on it most of the time are just sort of gibbering. No wonder TV is often called "idiot box".

For whom to spend?
By and large, the public sectors in U.S.A. and Canada spend for the best interests of American and Canadian people, while the private ones in both countries spend for the best interests of their shareholders.

Julius Caesar is allegedly the best known among all the ancient Roman leaders.
His father is Julius Caesar the Elder. But the father's actual name is Julius Caesar III. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Caesar#Parents and the family tree presented at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaius_Julius_Caesar_the_Elder .
How strange. Hmm.
By the way, Julius' son is Augustus Caesar, the first Roman Emperor.

Life isn't easy for non-state-owned Chinese firms.
Inside China, the omnipresent and overbearing governments are apt to mistreat them.
Outside China, foreign governments will potentially clamp down on them more and more.
Canny innovations happen everywhere and everyday.
The thing is, mainly industry insiders know and are capable to discern them.
There're many interesting points about the seizure and trial of Adolf Eichmann by Israel during early 1960s.
First let's be clear that we just don't concern ourselves with the disputes between Argentina and Israel. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eichmann#International_dispute_over_capture.) And we just talk about things between Mr. Adolf Eichmann, an individual, and Israel, a state.
Personally I don't know anything about the study of law. But the particular case intrigues me, in terms of law.
Point 1: Israel captured Eichmann by kidnapping him in Argentina. That act of arresting an individual by way of illegal means seems to be ADMISSIBLE in Israeli justice system, even in international legal system.
Point 2: During the trial, Israel allegedly followed an alleged meticulous due process. For that matter, it seems to me that in many Western judicial systems, due processes dictate that evidences obtained through illegal methods are NOT ADMISSIBLE.
A rather intriguing law case.
