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.

It can be tough for a person to manage two or more responsibilities which compete for his time and attention, occasionally. There's no room of flexibility. If he fails to carry one of them even just once, he's gonna have to bear the consequences.
The phrase "juggling responsibilities" is a heavy one.

Now Michael Ignatieff is nearly a spent force. That former university prof and Harvard U. scholar must have a lot to chew. And now we know that the battle field of real world politics have different game rules than that of the ivory tower.
On a related note, it amazed me that both Micheal Ignatieff and Jack Layton hold PhD degrees. Gee, overeducated Canadians.
Well, well, RIM must be dead and phantasmal in the eyes of app developers. The latter are already excruciatingly busy with doing two rounds of software development for the same app, for iPhone and Android.
It doesn't feel very good to see the beginning of the end of RIM. It's another Canadian tech giant falling down in the face of new competition, after the colossal demise of Nortel.

Look, the skyrocketing inflation of living expenses and wages in China has started to drive out foreign companies, which are now looking elsewhere for labor, probably back in their home countries. Combined with the backdrop of the steeply rising transportation costs wreaked by upward moving gas prices, now we can suppose China's economy and employment situation will have to face increasing troubles.
Just consider how consequential the subject matter and policies of macroeconomics are for a country and its average Joes and average Janes.
