    Just came back from China (pics a lot)

    Stayed there for three weeks on vacation. Here are some pictures in a city by the sea (not as big as New York though). The sensor of my camera was dirty. Please ignore those dirty marks. I cleaned the sensor after the shooting. Update: only 10 pictures are allowed in one post. So I had to post...

    CEO dead, CFO asking for donation to pay mortgage (A Joke)

    update: He said this is a joke. Have fun guys. A friend said the company CEO just died and CFO sent email to all employees asking for donation for CEO's widow. Because he just bought a $23,000,000 house and paid 40% down. The poor widow cannot pay the mortgage in the future. So the CFO...

    Someone jumped off my office building - from 10th floor this morning

    The body was just removed before 9 am. Police blocked half block. We still have one side-door to enter the building. It's sad to suicide in this shitty weather and in this shitty building. I guess NY Post will get the details later today.

    9-11 really changed some people

    I was talking with an old lady on the New Year's Day dinner. She showed me a picture of her goddaughter. Very beautiful, like a model. Then she said the daughter was buried underground on ground zero for three days before digging out. Since then she has changed totally. She used to be a cute...

    Just installed split-image focusing screen in my K100D

    After I got the K20D, I checked the K100D price on ebay and Craigslist. Not worth selling it. Since I had several manual lenses, I decided to change the focusing screen in K100D. I keep the K20D intact (to me it's not hard to manual focus on it). Googled a lot, bought the split-image screen kit...

    High drug addict broke into police station and tried to rape the woman dispatcher

    Well this happened in China. A high drug addict failed to find some prostitutes. In desperation he called the police emergency 110 (similar to 911 in US). The woman dispatcher refused his request. The addict was so angry that he went to the police station where the dispatcher was working. He...

    Kids gang prowling on Craigslist?

    I put up my ad on Craigslist to sell a new iphone 4 and a guy replied to my email 5 minutes later. One day later we talked on the phone. He sounded like a twelve-year old boy. So I asked him if he was old enough to get so much money and he said his father was going to bring the money and picked...

    one question about iphone 4 activation

    I am going to sell a couple of new iphone 4 on craigslist, but I never used iphone before. Should I sell the package unopened or activate the phone first? I just don't know if the buyer can activate the phone by himself. If the phone comes with a sim card, should I keep it? Thanks!

    It takes tremendous efforts to screw up the New York City map -Good job, Google!

    After switching to their own map data source, Google successfully screwed up the New York City roadway map. For example, search "pearl st and frankfort st, 10038" in Google Map to show the Brooklyn Bridge ramps, you will find one On-Ramp is missing. Of course it is still there in Street View...

    Going to get a Pentax K20D instead of K-X

    The new K-X body and used K20D body have the similar price around $400. I am quite familiar with the good old K100D. For now I am debating to get K20D or K-X. The video function is no use to me. I prefer the Canon HD camcorder I have. $400: K20D, big, heavy, weather proof $440: K-X, small...

    Some people have interesting thoughts: I wish you have a horrible horrible accident!

    I was reading a hot deal post at another forum. It's about the $30 1TB HDD at Yonkers, NY. Obviously some person wanted that HDD so bad that he asked if someone could get the HDD for him. He was willing to pay the $30 plus tax and shipping ONLY. No mention of other compensation. So one guy...

    Mazda Tribue, CX-7 or Ford Escape?

    I am driving a 2005 Mazda 3i with 14,000 miles on it. Yes I know I don't drive that much but I am thinking of getting a small SUV like the Escape, Mazda Tribute or CX-7. Hopefully the trade-in will cover some expenses from the same Mazda dealer. Are these SUVs similar? I read the reviews...

    DVD-R and CD-R backup: Time will tell

    So I just took out my hundreds of CD-R and DVD-R backup discs over the years and did a test. They are all stored in the same condition, no heating, no wetting, no pressing and no scratching. All my CD-R discs from 2002 are readable, brand name doesn't matter. After 2006, I only used DVD-R...

    My new office machine is coming

    My boss got his new iphone 4, so he told the secretary to transfer the contacts from his old iphone 3G to the new one. The secretary was using a very old Dell Optiplex on her desk, and it took a long time to install the itunes even. So later the boss told the computer manager to get a new...

    Finally bought the new Macbook Pro for my wife

    She used to use the ibook G4, then I got a Dell XPS M1330 and installed Hackintosh two years ago. At that time the 13" Macbook with the plastic case has serious crack problems and I did not want to spend $1500 for the Macbook Pro. The XPS M1330 runs perfectly but the new 13" Macbook Pro is so...

    Bought Hanvon N516 ebook reader one month ago, here are my thoughts

    This 5" e-ink reader is Hanvon brand which is the most famous brand in China. When I bought this, the SONY 5" is $30 cheaper but I bought this anyway for $160. I have been using it every day for over 30 days. Well, the battery is still half full. Amazing! I don't need wifi or any special...

    Local BP station runaway

    Yesterday afternoon I was filling up my gas tank at the BP station on Union Tpke (which is a busy road) and the guy at the station was filling a Lincoln Towncar for that cab driver since he parked in the full service island. Both of them look like from Southeast Asia. Two minutes later I...

    Finally bought an ebook reader and ditched my Magellan GPS

    I have been using the Magellan 4210 as a book reader for almost two years. The e-ink screen price is dropping now. So I guess it's time to upgrade. :) Bought this famous Chinese brand Hanvon N516, not the $120 SONY PRS-300SC. The same N516 model sold in China is almost twice expensive comparing...
