wifi to your rest area ... :)


We are all connected one day...
箴言云「健康十訓」,是:
一、少肉多菜,
二、少鹽多醋,
三、少糖多果,
四、少食多嚙,
五、少衣多浴,
六、少車多走,
七、少憤多笑,
八、少憂多眠,
九、少言多行,
十、少欲多施。
I'd say ... Less online, More offline. :)

LTE vs. WiMAX ??



WiMax vs. LTE - battle for the 4G...



1) Unstrung,
http://www.unstrung.com/blog.asp?blog_sectionid=414&doc_id=147687

2) A good collection of articles.news bits
http://vonmag.com/focus/focus/focus-on-wireless---wimax-vs-lte

3) http://swik.net/Technology-News/GigaOm/LTE+vs+WiMAX:+A+Little+4G+Sibling+Rivalry/b3gxt

However, LTE will take time to roll out, with deployments reaching mass adoption by 2012 . WiMax is out now, and more networks should be available later this year. As for speeds, LTE will be faster than the current generation of WiMax, but 802.16m that should be ratified in 2009 is fairly similar in speeds.

Can this (below) be done?
[if NOT, we should - for those smart companies out there]

"Let's use the same hardware platform as existing WiMAX base stations, that a WiMAX base station can be sold as an LTE base station, using a different software load."

Not just busy, crazy busy>>>

Busy?! You bet.

Crazy Busy... :)

"美國心理協會(APA), 二○○七年進行的調查發現,過去五年來,四成八美國人覺得生活壓力越來越沉重。
一般人為了保住工作,原本就得應付排山倒海而來的郵件、備忘錄、書籍、雜誌與其他書面資訊,電子通訊出現之後情況更趨嚴重。也難怪調查中有超過三分之一的受訪者說,壓力步步高升的主因之一,就是私人生活時間被工作占用。 "

Ever wonder why? fast food in China?!

FYI...

Per this link,
http://acwf.people.com.cn/GB/99050/6567668.html

Observation:
"位于北京市朝阳区红庙路口的肯德基餐厅,空位已经不多..."
QQQ:

"为什么青少年如此钟爱洋快餐呢?
一: 是洋快餐重视以儿童为对象的促销手段;
二: 是青少年的崇洋心理;
三: 是洋快餐具有成瘾性;
四: 是良好的就餐环境和服务质量让他们感到轻松愉快。"

And here is what's popular:

肯德基、麦当劳进入国门,
无数的青少年趋之若鹜,光顾洋快餐店与穿国际名牌服装等,
成为他们现代时尚生活中不可或缺的一部分。

###
And here is what China's fighting and trying to get the food safety issue under control;
This book, however, causes such a BIG impact!

周勍,

這本書是在多次私下秘密地對工廠廠長、農民、餐廳服務員、醫生等人採訪下完成的。揭開醃菜中的殺蟲劑、童工撒過尿水的涼皮、餐廳為了招攬顧客而在湯中放罌粟殼等食品安全內幕。

—— 英文《亞洲週刊》(ASIA WEEKLY)





今年最讓我思考的一本書。還沒看完,我就打算多在家裡做飯。


—— 美國哥倫比亞電視公司(CBS News)北京分社記者Rebecca Kanthor

有一個銀匠在熬煉一鍋銀子,火不斷的燒,銀匠不斷的攪拌著,很細心的看著銀子的變化,旁邊有人問他說,要煉到什麼時候才算完成阿?銀匠眼睛仍然不離開那鍋他所寶貝的銀子,慢條斯理的回答:「要等到所有渣滓浮起來,把渣滓一次一次撈掉,直到銀子變亮,可以反照出銀匠的臉孔,就差不多了。」

Arrh... take a walk!


OK... it would take a 1/2 day to there... :)
10耶和華悅納了那被壓傷的,
就是受苦的那一位。
耶和華以他為贖罪祭,
他必看見後裔,他的年日必然長久。
耶和華所喜悅的事,必在他手中亨通。
11因著自己的勞苦,他必看見就心滿意足。
我的義僕因自己的知識,使許多人得稱為義,
並且要擔當他們的罪孽。
12因此,我要使他與位大的同分,
與強盛的均分擄物。
因為他傾倒自己的生命,以致於死,
也列在罪犯之中。
他誠然擔當多人的罪,
為他們的過犯代求。
以賽亞書52:13-53:12

Check this out -- public relation, I suppose.

And more,

"中國食品安全問題已經引起中國民眾對生產廠商的強烈憤慨和譴責,對社會道德的懷疑和失望:“要利潤還是要良知?”“要錢還是要命?”整個社會的誠信機制面臨被摧垮的危機。"

TDD vs FDD -- WiMAX

URL: http://www.techworld.com/mobility/features/index.cfm?featureid=3964


I quote:

"FDD WiMax could well be pitched head-on against HSPA, EVDO, LTE and other 3G technologies in the 2.5Ghz band, according to Bubley. I wonder if that means that Ofcom and other regulators need to go back to the drawing boards and re-work their interference assumptions for a possible cellular/WiMax mix across the whole band.""
