I remember this was one of my favorite songs when I was six years old. At that time, I played this song in tape(really old technology) everyday. It is really hard to tell why I liked the song so much. I don't know whether it is due to its typical 80s' musical style or

The name of this song is 走过咖啡屋(Pass by a cafe). The singer, whose name is 千百惠(Qian Bai Hui), is from Taiwan. In 1980s.

Vizards have finally shown up





After waiting and waiting, the vizrds have finally shown up to stop Aizen. At this moment, most of the captains have been injured by the top three Espadas. However, Aizen still looks clam. Did he expect that Vizard would come?

Before this moment, the battle between Shinikami and Espada have last for 40 episodes. Shinikami have defeated those arrancar easily, but they were shocked by how strong the top three espadas are.

The number three espada, Tia Harribel, has the ability of controlling water. Although she was against the 10th division captain Hitsugaya Tōshirō, whose ability is to control water into ice and use ice to attack, she was not hurt by Hitsugaya's most powerful attack--Ice Heaven Hundred Flower Interment(The ability opens up a huge hole in the clouds through which a large amount of snow falls down on to his opponent. Whomever the snow touches begins to sprout ice flowers all over, which instantly freezes them in a pillar of ice).

The number two espada, Barragan Luisenbarn is a muscular old man who use a huge axe as his main weapon. When he released his axe, he became a . His ability is to age and deteriorate everything around him. He also has strong spirit force to defend himself from any attack. Even the 2nd division captain Soifon used her BanKai Jakuhō Raikōben(Hornet Thunder Whip, its a huge missile), she could not lift a finger of Barragan.

The strongest espada, the number one, Starrk has the ability of shooting Ceros from his guns. He can shoot 1000 Ceros at once. He and anothe arrancar Wonderweiss defeated the 8th and 13 th division captains Kyōraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jūshirō.

Now on Shinikami side the only two captains still standing are 1st divison captain Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni and 7th divison captain Komamura Sajin. Sajin is definitely no match for the top three espada. Yamamoto captain is also the captains' commander, but he can't fight against three espada together.

At this very moment, luckliy Vizards have finally shown up. I guess their purpose is not to help those Shinikami, but to make revenge to Aizen. Aizen's ability is using illusion. Let's see how they can overcome his special ability.

Women are wired differently


I have read through the book Double your dating and watched several related videos. I practice the techniques from the book everyday. I feel it really make sense in real life for communicating with not only women but also men. Through my observation, women and men are really different. For men, the two different questions what do men want and what do men response are not much different. For women, these two are way different.

A world without thieves


A world without thieves is a great Chinese movie. It discussed the moral consciousness of today's Chinese society.

Wang Bo(Andy Lau) and Wang Li(René Liu) are a couple of thieves. They happened to know Sha Gen(Wang Bao Qiang) who is a construction worker on a train from Tibet to inland. Sha Gen carried 60,000RMB with him. He is a young idealist person and believes that there is no thieves in this world. In order to let his dream goes on, the couple fought against the other group of thieves on the train. In the end, Wang Bo was killed by the head of those thieves Hu Li.

Se7en


I am a big fan of movie. Recently I downloaded and watched some old classical movies. One of these great movies is Seven. This movie was so successfully, because it had all the elements of a great movie should have. The director David Fincher is a genius of making dark and stylish style movies. Morgan Freeman acted like an old, cool, and wise guy . And off course, the handsome guy Brad Pitt is favored by most females. However, what I like the most is the story of this movie.
















In Christan, Seven represents seven deadly sins which are lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride. The whole story is about two detectives, Detective Somerset(Morgan Freeman) and Detective Mills(Brad Pitt) investigate a series of murders made by a extreme religious killer. The killer kill seven people one by one according to seven deadly sins in seven days.

The first victim is a fat man who eats too much every day to even walk out of his house. His death represents gluttony which means over-indulgence and over-consumption of food. He was forced fed with spaghetti. And his stomach was kicked by the killer and was burst.

The second victim is a defense lawyer who is rich and famous but has a bad name of defensing for corruption and criminals. The killer pointed him with a gun and asked him to cut a pound of his body for his sin. After his death, the word "Greed" was written on the floor of his room.

The third victim is a drug dealer was bound to a bed in his own apartment. When he was found, he was still alive. His hands was cut off and he was suffering mental deterioration due to over injection of drug.

The fourth victim is a a young woman, a prostitute. She was found dead in a room with "Lust" written on the door. An extremely horrified man who was also found in the same room told the two detectives that he was forced by the killer at gunpoint to wear and use a special device. It was a strap-on dildo attached with a blade. He was forced to wear it, rape and kill the girl.

The fifth victim is a pretty model killed due to "Pride". Her nose was cut off. She was given a choice to suicide with sleeping pills. The word "Pride" was written with blood on the wall of her room.

Till here. It looks like the two detectives will keep on searching, find out who is the killer, and capture him. To their surprise, after the fifth murder, the killer, whose name is John Doe, went to the police station and turned himself in. Policemen was surprised, because he had only killed five people. They was wondering if there would be two unfounded dead bodies. John Doe requested to lead Somerset and Mills to the desert outside the city. The two detectives took John to the location he requested. And at 7pm Sunday(The 7th day of that week) a postman delivered a package to them. The head of Detective Mills' wife was put in the package.John Doe killed his wife, because he admired(Envy) Mills' family life. Mills then got angry(Wrath), shot him down ,and was taken away by police.

What makes me like this movie is the meanings behind the story. In the movie, each victim was not treated as human being. I was wondering how can a man think out such bloody ways of killing people. The killer, John Doe is a well educated man with enough income. In the last part of the movie he explained his purpose in the movie. He believed that murders as a way of showing people what the world is to punish the wicked. He wanted everyone to remember and admire for what he had done. That's what he talked to Detective Mills in the movie:

David Mills: Wait, I thought all you did was kill innocent people.
  
  John Doe: Innocent? Is that supposed to be funny? An obese man... a disgusting man who could barely stand up; a man who if you saw him on the street, you'd point him out to your friends so that they could join you in mocking him; a man, who if you saw him while you were eating, you wouldn't be able to finish your meal. After him, I picked the lawyer and I know you both must have been secretly thanking me for that one. This is a man who dedicated his life to making money by lying with every breath that he could muster to keeping murderers and rapists on the streets!
  
  David Mills: Murderers?
  
  John Doe: A woman...
  
  David Mills: Murderers, John, like yourself?
  
  John Doe: (interrupts)A woman... so ugly on the inside she couldn't bear to go on living if she couldn't be beautiful on the outside. A drug dealer, a drug dealing pederast, actually! And let's not forget the disease-spreading whore! Only in a world this shitty could you even try to say these were innocent people and keep a straight face. But that's the point. We see a deadly sin on every street corner, in every home, and we tolerate it. We tolerate it because it's common, it's trivial. We tolerate it morning, noon, and night. Well, not anymore. I'm setting the example. What I've done is going to be puzzled over and studied and followed... forever.

Lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride. These seven sins do exist in this material world. And no one can escape from these, even a detective(Detective Mills) who represent justice and equal fell into the trap and became a man with wrath. That's the nature of our world. We are living in an imperfect world. But the biggest sin is not anyone from these seven sins. The biggest sin is to judge the world in one's own belief, just like what John Doe did in the movie. Wolf will eat sheep, if it feels hungry. But man eat sheep with reasons. In the movie, Detective Somerset(Morgan Freeman) said "If we catch John Doe and he turns out to be the devil – I mean, if he’s Satan himself – that might live up to our expectations. But he is not the devil, he is a man. " Sometimes human can really act like the devil.

River crab is grass mud horse stone desert


River crab is grass mud horse stone desert. I guess none of you have read this strange sentence before. I invent it. Only people from China can understand it.

"River crab" means the type of crab lives in river. In Chinese, it's "河蟹" which has the same pronunciation of "和谐"(harmonic).

Grass, mud, and horse in Chinese are "草", "泥" and "马". "草泥马" has the same pronunciation of "操你妈"('Fxxx' your mum). Stone desert in Chinese is "戈壁" which has the same pronunciation of "个逼"(pussy) This sentence means "Harmonic is like Fxxx your mum's pussy". Obviously it is a rude word to say. However, I posted this on my account on Xiaonei today(www.xiaonei.com is a Chinese website similar to facebook, which is quite popular in China)

Today June 4th is a special day. I believe most people in this world know what happened in Beijing on the same day twenty years ago. The fact is nobody want that to happen, but similar issues happened in different countries again and again(Bonus March, Spring 1932; Kent State Shooting, 1970; Greek police shooting, Dec 7th 2008). The June 4th issue was serious, because it was the first time Chinese government handle this kind of issues. The government at that time was lack of experience. They wait almost two month until there were so many people gathered in the square and there was no other way to let them leave. Although some people criticize that the government has no democracy, I believe things need to be change gradually. However, it is sad that some real problems was not solved much. The biggest one is the freedom of speech.

Recent years president Hu always mention that the government is trying to build a harmonic society. What I have found out is the true "Harmonic" means blocking all the unwanted voices. That's what I have found out today.

This morning one of my friend post a status on Xiaonei(www.xiaonei.com). Her status was "It seems today is an important day, but why?". I replied "Today is June 4th". Once I clicked the "Comment" button, a new window pooped out. It said "It is not allow to post any porn or political sensitive comments". Then I replied in an indirect way "Today is 42 divide by 7, and 20 divide by 5". To my surprise, even this comment got blocked again. Later on I figured out I should avoid using number 4 or 6(both Chinese and English form) in my comment. Finally my comment "Calculate 58 divide by 9, take the integer result and remainder" got passed. I was really angry of this way of blocking people's comments. That's why I changed my status to "River crab is grass mud horse stone desert". It is an indirect way to express my anger.
