Digital Camera Tricks - on Podcast

2006-03-09T15:17:00.000-08:00

These tricks can actually apply to almost any type of photo shooting.

Image composition:
*reduce the # of subjects - too many competing subjects looks messy
*you will get cleaner images this way
*move in closer to reduce the competition
*blurr the background to reduce the comptition

Go off center:
*take the subject off center
*apply the rule of thirds
--divide the image to three horizontal and three vertical portions

Don't waste time:
*keep the camera on to be ready for that perfect shot

ChinesePod - Learn Mandrin by podcast

I am beginning to learn words in Mandrin.
In Mandrin, a baby is pronounced:
bow bow
low high

Low is a low tone, high is a high tone.

To say "baby don't cry"
bow bow bea coo
baby don't cry

bow bow = baby
bea = don't
coo = cry

My Wikipedia contribution

2006-01-31T14:56:00.000-08:00

I made a small contribution to the article about a village in Lamma Island (Hong Kong), named Yung Shue Wan. I added the name Banyan Bay (to Yung Shue Wan) because the name Yung Shue Wan in English means Banyan Bay. The word Banyan from the Banyan tree, which grows throughout Asia, can reach a height of over 100 feet. When growing, new roots sprout from the branches. Beautiful furniture is made from the Banyan tree. The word Wan which means bay. By the way, Lamma is a fun and beautiful place to live.

Thoughts about using RSS and some of the best links I found:

2006-01-24T15:23:00.000-08:00

I found that using RSS in my blog is fun because I can tell others to choose my feed on their aggregator. In attending the RSS Club, I learned how blogs and RSS feeds can be useful for e-learning, especially when professors may not have access to discussion boards in WebCT.

Some cool links I found for getting RSS feeds are:
http://www.gizmodo.com/ (gadget news)
http://news.google.com/nwshp?tab=wn&ned=us&topic=t (sci tech news)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/default.stm (bbc news)
http://holographic-universe.blogspot.com/ (and of course, my own blog)

There is no such thing as matter?

2006-01-24T13:49:00.000-08:00

Max Planck, upon accepting the Nobel Prize for physics in 1918 said, "We have now discovered that there is no such thing as matter, it is all just different rates of vibration designed by an unseen intelligence." (from the book, "Lost Star" by Walter Cruttenden: 2006)

The Universe is a Hologram?

Michael Talbot makes a very interesting proposal that the universe may be a hologram.
