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's said that Japan makes 40% of the parts and components of our everyday electronics devices and equipments. Gee.
Well, the JIT supply chains which are predominant in Japanese businesses are showing their shortcomings now, in the wake of the mammoth unpredictable disasters of earthquake and tsunami.

Maneuvering one's career looks quite heady.
But I'm not sure how much the so-called career planning can really help. If it largely is an art, then you cannot be really taught by a hired career consultant. If it largely is a science, then you cannot be helped much by it because the environment in which you try to implement it cannot be controlled.
The universities in the U.S. and Canada seem to be bloated. There are too many professors and instructors.
Perhaps there will be some form of lay-offs which will have to be done, against the backdrop of the rising of e-learning. Otherwise the financial burden to pay all the university employees would look too much for the society.
How come Google can hit so many sweet spots in its various lines of business? Gee.
It's been said that the uptake of Android smart phones has surpassed that of iPhone devices.

It shouldn't take long for a smart phone app to complete its sign-in authentication process.
Otherwise it would give its users slight nerves. People use it on the go and hence cannot wait long at all.
