just had my last lec done - last undergrad lec in UW. 8 terms of studies is now gone. hoo.. love it, hate it, UW i gotta go.  thank you for all wut you gave.

keep being the best overall in Canada! bye for now!

Saw a previous version of this type of digital DJ machine once with barb at the Apple Store. That one required two ipods to mix up the music with. Two? Ah... forget it, I thought. Featuring only one iPod dock instead of two, this iDJ2 can stream two songs at once from one iPod! No word on pricing yet. We will see.

adidas introduced the World's first intelligent basketball shoe - adidas_1 Basketball recently. Like Nike announced their Shox BB4 basketball shoes with R4 running shoes, adidas eventually applied their running-based tech onto basketball shoes.... that is really DISAPPOINTING.

The adidas_1 technology senses your movements and cushioning needs from your first step, then adjusts the cushioning to suit your needs and the conditions. EX: If you are running on concrete, the first step you make, the computer reads the forces, then adjusts the cushioning to suit. So by your second step it is adjusted to meet the needs of concrete. If you then switch to trail, your first step on trail will be different, and the computer will sense that and adjust the cushion to suit by your second step! That is how it works. And the technology is ONLY IN THE HEEL! When you cut in basketball, you cut on your toes, not on your heel. Not only do you cut on your toes, the cutting movement is only once at a time! Think about it, when do you repeatedly cut? NEVER! You cut, then you run, then you cut again. So what adidas is claiming is not true.

The only continuous movement in basketball is running. That is the only movement that is repeated at one time. When do you repeatedly jump in one spot? Maybe on a rebound, but that is the point; once you jump and the computer adjusts the cushioning for jumping, you are already starting to run. And cutting doesn't apply, because you cut on your toes. If they are saying that the computer stores all your info and then finds the optimum HEEL cushioning for a specific player, then what is the difference between putting zoom air in a shoe for guards, or putting encapsulated air in a shoe for centers? To me it is bogus. It ONLY applys to running, because the technology is in the HEEL and running is the only continuous/ repeated movement at one time.

As well for the design: how could you design one shoe for 5 positions? A guard shoe should be light and sleak looking, and a "bigs" shoes should be more supportive. To me that shoe is a "Bigs" shoe. It is not "slim" enough for a guard. Look what it has to compete against; Jordans, Flight VC, and so on, and to me it doesn't.

So to me, great technology for RUNNING. Absolutely amazing for RUNNING. But it doesn't apply to b-ball, or any court sport for that matter.

once back then i found it difficult to update my website frequently. i thought that was mostly due to the whole complex and time-consuming process of restructuring and uploading. blog, the THEN new type of personal website (or say, online diary), appeared at that very moment and provided a much much much easier way for updating. i swore to my self that i would just keep doing it man. now, the result turns out like, aha, it is just more about laziness >_<

u guys ever heard about the 'team blog' thing, which we could have whole bunch of friends update our blog together? more info from more perspectives; more interactions thru more postings. i really really really wanna try that. if it interests you as well, pls givmme a shout :)

recommand two softwares from google here:

1. the google desktop

there are a number of similar softwares all around, however i think this offers the best quality.

2. Picasa

it features a really user-friendly design. if you wanna just adjust the photo without editing it too much, then go with this!

got addicted to the Wikipedia recently. know wut, whole bunch of stuffs stocked there! more time on reading = less time to write, lol, possibly this's the answer to the laziness issue mentioned at the beginning  :)

1。今天是彼得同學的生日，生日快樂！！

2。下午收到滑鐵盧大學人體工學部的研究生錄取通知書。盡管是意料中的事情，仍卻是很興奮！！
