Sex cures headaches
sabino:
fuckyeahfacts:
Next time your significant other refuses your advances by claiming to have a headache, remember this fact: the sex act can help to cure a headache. Sex causes the body to release endorphins which naturally reduce the pain of a headache.

Photoblog →
As you may know, I’ve always had an interest in photography. Though over the years, I only see or appreciate photos taken by someone. I seldom take the chance to shot some photos myself. One of the reasons is that the photography gear is quite expensive and I can’t afford it. Another reason is that DSLR cameras are bulky and inconvenient to bring along. That’s why I bought the...

Away to Central Taiwan
From 18 to 25 of this month, that’s starting from tomorrow, I have a trip with my girlfriend to TaiChung. My sister will also come along with us, but the places they will go are a little bit different. Actually, we don’t just go to TaiChung only, but the middle part of Taiwan including TaiChung, ChiaYi and NanTou.
As you may know, I have travelled to Taipei this year in January...

Year One University Life
I really haven’t updated my blog for a long time already. I’m still alive. Recently I’ve just finished the examination in semester two this year. I have no course in this summer, so I can say my university life of year one ended with the last paper examination already.
Maybe I need to sum up my university life this year. Actually my life this year is not really busy at all. For...

I moved to self host Wordpress again and I have abandoned Tumblr. I won’t make any updates there anymore.
Tumblr is actually a great web service which makes your blogging life more convenient. I loved the service. You may see sometimes I blogged really frequently, but you may also notice that I seldom write, especially something more about my personal life. One of the reasons may be the...

All caps in legal documents →
jacob:
I always wondered if there was some legal significance to this.
Some laws require that certain provisions of contracts be printed in a font that is larger than the remainder of the text, or in all caps, to avoid burying important terms in a bunch of small text.

Panasonic Lumix LX3
After struggling between Canon Powershot G10 and Panasonic Lumix LX3, I have finally bought the latter one. Actually both are great compact cameras, and you won’t go wrong with either. I really hope I can give you a review on this camera, but I think it’s not probable as I’m just a newbie to photography.

A Beautiful 2GB Panoramic Photo of Obama’s... →

skippile:
Photographer David Bergman made a panoramic image showing the nearly two million people who watched President Obama’s inaugural address. To do so, he clamped a Gigapan Imager to the railing on the north media platform about six feet from my photo position. The Gigapan is a robotic camera mount that allows him to take multiple images and stitch them together, creating a...

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button →
“I was born under unusual circumstances.” and so begins “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”, adapted from the 1920s story by F. Scott Fitzgerald about a man who is born in his eighties and ages backwards. A man, like any of us, unable to stop time. We follow his story set in New Orleans from the end of World War I in 1918, into the 21st century, following his journey that is as...

I just had a job interview for a post of Customer Relations Ambassador at the Hong Kong Jockey Club. The interview was conducted in group. The interviewers asked us to introduce yourself in English to test your English standard. They also asked your most impressive experience in your working experiences or college activities. The last one was a scenario question which asks how you handle if a...

From 3 to 7 I have travelled to Taipei. I’m not going to tell you my schedule of this trip, and where I have gone, because this will make the post very lengthy and I’m lazy. One thing that I need to tell you is that Taipei is a place worth going in your life. I miss all the Taiwanese who helped us cordially with one even took out a paper and a pen to jot down what places worth visiting...

Suspect X
It’s another film review again. Sorry if you’ve been really fed up with my reviews lately. It’s an unusual holiday. I didn’t watch so many films in previous holidays. Anyway, I think it’s the last film review this year.
You should be familiar with Suspect X if you watched the drama on TV. If you didn’t and want to watch this movie in the coming days, I suggest...

In this holiday I have lots of time and recently I’ve watched several movies at home to kill time. They’re The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded, The Matrix Revolutions, Hellboy II: The Golden Army and Quantum of Solace.
The Matrix Series: I would recommend the first episode only if you want to watch. I watched this film mainly because of Reeves. He is awesome in the movie. I also like the...

Twilight
I just got a chance to watch Twilight. It is a romance movie with a love story of a girl and a vampire. Although it is romantic, I could find some excitements in it.
I think most girls will be hypnotised by Edward Cullen. As a boy, I also admit that his eyes are so charming and glistening but with some mysteries. This is certainly what the film intended to give such character to this role....

The Day the Earth Stood Still
The Day the Earth Stood Still is a movie which conveys a message to people to protect the Earth.
I have recently watched this movie. I don’t like the plot much personally. I don’t like the spoiled kid, I know the function of this character in the film is to reveal “another side of human” to Klaatu, but I think arrangement could be made better. Gort, the giant metal...

iPhone Photography Awards →

jorgeq:
We all get very obsessed with new equipment and in photography, that can very well lead anyone to believe that the most expensive camera will always render exceptional photographs. That’s half true because the other element to a great photo is creativity, especially when the only camera you have to capture a moment is the iPhone and for that you should be awarded. Enter...

MobileMe Subscription
I have recently subscribed to MobileMe after several days of trial. I didn’t pay the subscription fee via my credit card, I bought an activation code through eBay, it’s a lot cheaper.
I joined MobileMe mainly for their Push service, although I only own an iMac and an iPhone now. I can see that the effect is quite nice, it helps me maintain consistent data in all the devices. Push...

Please help! I took my husband’s i-phone and found a raunchy picture of him attached to an e-mail to a woman in his sent e-mail file (a Yahoo account). When I approached him about this (I think that he is cheating on me) he admitted that he took the picture but says that he never sent it to anyone. He claims that he went to the Genius Bar at the local Apple store and...

Die Hard
Die Hard is a series of action films with four episodes at the moment. The movies are centered around a New York detective John McClane starred by Bruce Willis who always find himself fighting with terrorists in each episode.
I don’t want to talk much about the films, you should find out more yourself. But the four movies are ALL highly recommended, even the first episode released in 1988.

Law
In my university programme, I have to study at least four courses of law. They are essentially common laws (not Common Law) found in Hong Kong with some other related to construction and real estate.
In the first year of semester one, the syllabus includes Hong Kong Legal System, Contract Law and Tort Law. The first impression this course gave me is that I felt annoying to deal with the rules of...
