You use your own sophisticated or rudimentary computing devices to deal with the world day in and day out.
Nonetheless, we can realize how empowered a modern individual is.
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.

American public companies' moves generally are not fresh, but they look new in the eyes of the public, including myself.
Because the power of those companies is so significant that they provide fresher and comparatively reliable alternatives.

Just now, I tried out listening to songs by a few singers, such as Of Montreal, Mobile, Joey Cape, and Bahamas.
Still, among them, Norah Jones is the only one in whose music I drown myself and did so quite easily.

Many people remember the glamour of the great start-ups such as Microsoft, Google, and Facebook, but they forget the millions of others which fell into oblivion.
Not only I wanna see the obvious, but also I wanna see the oblivious.
Many Americans and Canadians advocate that education is the key to solve the structural unemployment problem.
If they are mentioning college level career education such as welding, then I don't know much about it and can't say anything really.
But, if they are talking about post-secondary academic education, then they are ignoring the problem that university academic education probably is increasingly irrelevant both to the real world and to the truths so that it is actually scuttling the labor market instead of helping it.

Some people think they can scheme and take advantage of others.
Really? Are other people really fools or pushovers as they think those to be?

Everything is so vague in China.
How come local governments in China can terminate, at will, factories' leasehold of lands and force them to move and pay even higher rents?
Gee. That definitely can turn businesses on.

I always forget one of the meanings of the word "foil", which is a fencing sword.
Still, I need to beef up my English reading persistently in the decades to come.
"Where did you shower my daughter?" J asked.
"There's a utility sink in the daycare. I took her there and gave her a mini shower," D answered.

Bev Oda's aptness of indulging herself in luxurious spending, on taxpayers' money, had been divulged and consequently, she resigned from her post of Minister of International Cooperation of the Canadian government.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bev_Oda#Controversies_and_scandals.
If she really likes living high life, she would be better suited if she chose a profiteering career path, such as investment banking, rather than the public service one.
