I went to a store when I heard a guy and other person talking about matches. They said "It's easier to find lighters than matches." I'm not sure if it true or but, I see more lighters than matches in the stores.
"Why hasn’t this website included any new images from New Horizons since July? As planned, New Horizons itself is on a bit of a post-flyby break, currently sending back lower data-rate information collected by the energetic particle, solar wind and space dust instruments. It will resume sending flyby images and other data in early September. The team will dive back into data analysis and the pace of news and image releases will pick up with the team's activity. New Horizons – which is healthy an
I begin to use the new mailbox from Canada post. Yeah. The mailbox is other side of the main road (route 138) when vans come and go everyday. This mailbox is nicer than the traditional blue-red mailboxes. It even has drawings in the sides. The other side and back. Here the front of the mailbox. From now, I need to cross the road to take my mail. I'm not sure if it safe when people bring their little kids to take their mail.
I noted some websites now support Unity to play games unstead Flash. So I decided to try Unity too. If the installer is about 700 kb, the whole installation takes forever to load. I suspect the data is about one gig or even more. I first thought Unity is a plug-in for browsers but it's something else. After the whole installation is complete, Unity starts and I get this: WHAT IS THAT??!!! Do I need to open an account to play Unity games? It's more like open a Flash account t
I noted in mid 1980s the disk drive becomes popular to North-America even if it costs more than the computer itself If you think the disk drive at $249 is expensive, take a look when the Commodore 64 is introduced in 1982. http://www.pcmuseum.ca/details.asp?id=15 Commodore 64 is at $599.00 and the disk drive at $399.95 The computer is more expensive than the disk drive. At $249, I would buy a disk drive. I wonder how much a disk drive is in Europe since people keep buying cassett

UHD is the next resolution of the television. I saw few UHD television sets at the store. I first thought the UHD would be the same resolution like the wides creen on movie theater but then, I found on the wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-definition_television, UHD is still 16:9 like HD but with higher resolution. What a shame. I would like to see movies on the television without black borders. This UHD televiison is curved. I don't know if it is better than a non-curved t
I learned somethng new this week. To upload large files (specially videos, over 50 megs), you have to turn off the modem and wait about 30 minutes. Or else, the modem will disconnect by itself and you have to upload again from the start. STUPID MODEM!!!
The Nasa brings this new picture of Ceres. The scientists still don't sure about the bright spots what it is. Also they found a pyramid-shape peak. What's it could be? Here the last news from the Nasa http://dawn.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news-detail.html?id=4633
