在无聊的德峻那看到这图片时，我也有同感：每次吃牛肉西餐时都是搞不清楚那个部分打那个部分。

这图片是PETA(People for Ethnical Treatment of Animals)网站的其中一个富有教育的图片。

无论，我绝对支持这组织的诉求。

你喜欢与否，黄明志是新生代大马华裔部分的体现。

个人觉得他这首新年怪烂的来又出神地说出我们的心声。

之前，他的另外一首比较正经的海南歌也值得一听。他是个被人误会的小孩。

How Iran is filtering out dissent

The regime reacted slowly to the election protests but its censorship of the internet is very advanced

Ian Black, Middle East editor
guardian.co.uk, Tuesday 30 June 2009 16.13 BST

If the Iranian regime hesitated over tactics when protests erupted over the “theft” of the presidential elections by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, it was well prepared on one front: internet censorship is both routine and highly developed in the Islamic Republic, so when the crackdown came it was swift and – fairly – effective.

the country in the international spotlight again … for wrong reason …

New York Times: Trial of Opposition Leader Could Reshape Malaysian Politics

CNN: Malaysian opposition leader goes to trial

BBC: Malaysia sodomy trial begins for politician Anwar

Al Jazeera: Malaysia opposition leader on trial

Someone would put the blame on the opposition leader but then who started all this ?

People would say you are saint when you give foods to the poor but then people would upset if you as why these people poor.

Now is 1400 (GMT +800), 31 Jan 2010, so far from the record show that there’re not much big money transfer for EPL this term.

The competition for top 4 spot and champion are heating up with 3-horses race among Chelsea, Arsenal & Man Utd; and 4 teams racing for the last Champion League ticket.

It’s good to see that finally Totteham rise to the challenge in this season together with Aston Villa. Man City resurge after Mancini took should not take it lightly.

However, I’ll say it’s time to say goodbye to Liverpool and Benitez. With or without the trasnfer money from owners, the coach just cannot get the best out of the players he brought (more than 100 players) in the last 4 seasons. I’ll see Liverpool disaster by ending outside top 6 with Benetiz sack before April.

My prediction is that either Man City or Totteham will make the cut for top4 and not Aston Villa. I like Martin O Neil and his team but his team may not have the dept to go that far. Let wait and see.

距离第一次到山打根大约有6年的时光吧？那时刚出来正式工作。两次都是因为工作而到这地方。两次都在工余抽时间出来四处走走。但两次都没能仔细地走完它。

第一次来时，住在旧市区，一出酒店四处都是菲律宾裔还是印尼裔的人头在攒动，让我觉得不安。然而，那时的负责载我的政府部门司机也劝我入夜后少出来，结果就在酒店里聊电话过时间。

这次到这美丽的海湾城市，且节目丰富。第一夜，老板带我们一群人去Buli Sim-Sim吃美味的烧鱼大餐；第二天晚上，弘谦则带我去见识这入夜后的旧市区和新区。尤其是那旧市区某酒店顶楼的露天酒吧，一览整个市区的风景、海风劲驰、情调非凡。

可惜，还是没有时间好好地在这曾经辉煌繁荣，而有小香港（沙巴少数以广府话为主要方言的城市，其他为客家话为主）美誉的伐木城市去走。然而，今天，林木被砍尽而没落的当儿，这城市尽量推介它的生态（遍体鳞伤）旅游。Well,有机会我一定要回来这里，好好地度假和吃尽它的美食和游尽它的美景。

这几天，美国的参议院在讨论着要不要延长即将在1月31日合约到期的联邦储备局局长Ben Bernake的合约。民主党的一些老大已经发出了将投反对票的声音;但是奥巴马总统似乎要向市场派定心丸，而想要延长他的任期，并主动打电话给民主党参议院的领袖。

个人觉得这家伙是个据争议的人物，因为今天经济不景都是因为管制不当而引起的次贷风波；而次贷危机虽然说是上任联储局长Alan Greenspan让经济过热，而泡沫化的。但Ben Bernake也是在Alan Greenspan主持下联储的重要一员。

讽刺的是Times 杂志竟然把2009的风云人物榜，封了给Bernake。真的有没搞错的?放了狼群出来的人，因为努力捕狼有功而被赐封。天真的没眼。 More »

近来，给工作和私务缠身，没有时间好好的跟进有关谷歌在中国的问题，偶尔在翻报纸时，在中文报读到相关的报道。但这些报道都是引用自中国媒体的报道，当然新闻是非常大中国的。和父亲聊起时，大约地和父亲辩论了中国和自由民主的事物。

那天拿女友一号给胡老大时，就聊了聊，才发现我错失了真正新闻的焦点：-谷歌的知识产权被中国的商业间谍入侵和一些谷歌的服务被来之中国的黑客攻击，尤其是那些支持中国民运的人士。

发现所谓的大国崛起，都是伪善的。在Copenhagen时，胡主席乘机敲诈美国；也以非法的手段在抄袭后攻击对手。难道这就是当年的洋务运动的2.0版本吗？以夷制夷吗？如果，这就是所谓的民族自强还是什么狗屁大国崛起的话，对不起，你让我看不起你了。

后记：请本地的媒体，尤其是中文的，别老是抄中国还是港台的新闻。请用心研究后才写新闻。

A new approach to China

1/12/2010 03:00:00 PM

Like many other well-known organizations, we face cyber attacks of varying degrees on a regular basis. In mid-December, we detected a highly sophisticated and targeted attack on our corporate infrastructure originating from China that resulted in the theft of intellectual property from Google. However, it soon became clear that what at first appeared to be solely a security incident–albeit a significant one–was something quite different.

First, this attack was not just on Google. As part of our investigation we have discovered that at least twenty other large companies from a wide range of businesses–including the Internet, finance, technology, media and chemical sectors–have been similarly targeted. We are currently in the process of notifying those companies, and we are also working with the relevant U.S. authorities.

Second, we have evidence to suggest that a primary goal of the attackers was accessing the Gmail accounts of Chinese human rights activists. Based on our investigation to date we believe their attack did not achieve that objective. Only two Gmail accounts appear to have been accessed, and that activity was limited to account information (such as the date the account was created) and subject line, rather than the content of emails themselves.
