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.

U.S. Election 2012 has been red hot.
At work is a gigantic democratically political machine. At issue is how much responsibilities belong to the government and how much to the individuals.
Bouts of cyber espionage, allegedly from China, get Western countries to be very concerned.
Canada's intelligence agency, CSIS, has come out and warned the government and the public for several times already.
Country-level politics seems to be very complicated. Much much more complicated than the province-level politics.

Quiche is a sort of custard pie.
And it's usually considered to be a sub-type of tart.
Delicious. The French have so much culinary know-how.

Barack Obama is a deft politician, isn't he?
And his opponent, Mitt Romney, is a very rich guy who was also born in a rich family, isn't he? See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitt_Romney#Heritage_and_youth .
And see the consequences of the notorious "47 percent" words by Mitt Romney here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-line/post/brutal-new-obama-ad-features-mitt-romney-and-the-47-percenters/2012/09/27/8fc96b6c-08b0-11e2-a10c-fa5a255a9258_blog.html?tid=pm_opinions_pop .
Who do you think the middle class people with good sense would vote for? And who do you think the lower middle class Americans would vote for?
Romney has already lost.

Young high school students who feign that they have done the required readings may be wasting their own time and opportunity to really strive and get immersed in the marvelous worlds created by those chapters and words listed in the required readings.
On the other hand, do the prestigious high schools have to assign so much readings to their students?
Life is short and time, even for young people, is invaluable, I understand.

It appears that the Italian cuisine has got a very strong presence in Canada.
Gourmet coffee, pasta, panini, ..., you name it. They are almost everywhere.
And I love the way Panini taste.

Divinity (i.e. 上帝) is different than Karma (i.e. 因果报应).
For that matter, Christianity is different from Buddhism.
