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.

Looking back, when Larry Page took over from Eric Schmidt as Google's CEO in April 2011, that was an important portent of the dramatic changes of how the company does things as we've seen in recent 2 years.

Where do the Western countries' strengths come from? It seems to be that their justice systems are always upheld and trusted by common people.

Southern Asia is inflicted by high rates of acid attacks.
What a tragedy.
Acid throwing victim, Cambodia
These attacks are most common in Cambodia,[8] Afghanistan,[9] India,[10] Bangladesh,[5][6] Pakistan[5] and other nearby countries.[7] Globally, at least 1500 people in 20 countries are attacked in this way yearly,

Down with the way Google's treating consumers nowadays.
Google Reader's shutting down. The party's over. Google's offering public service no more.
I for one have this typical reaction: you yank so many services, then I distance myself away from you. On the other hand, I'm grateful for all the great services Google has offered in the web sphere in the past.

The word "e'en" looks strange, doesn't it?
It's the literary form of "even". Listen to how it pronounces. Oh my goodness. You need to squeeze out the sound from between your teeth.
