A quote out of a Issac Assimov book. Just felt that it really reminds one to never lay back on your laurels and be smug about your current situation. If you dig in and try to fortify yourself, someone will come along and bury you in that hole as they overtake you. Sent from my iPhone

BBC News - Change to 'Bios' will make for PCs that boot in seconds
via bbc.co.uk
In the IT industry where a year is already a very long time, got to hand it to the Bios for hanging around for so long. It's the chip that went on chugging (even when it shouldn't)

Moonlight, moonbright, tonight you're the star of the night.
After initial fears that the rain might force a cancellation of our "moon-viewing festivities", the family happily tottered up to the balcony and chit-chatted under the ample moonlight. Today's Mid-Autumn festival, traditionally a time for gatherings and family dinners. When I was in the UK, this usually marked the beginning of the school year for us. It became sort of a tradition with the Dulwich boys to go out and celebrate together in a China-Town restaurant and make loads of noise with our family away from home.

MOONcake Festival Tomorrow
Mid-Autumn festival (or mooncake or lantern) is tomorrow night and the main character of the festival sure is giving us a good show. That is the moon hanging low in the evening sky, shining brightly for all her worth.

Civilization 5 E3 2010 Trailer [HD]
via youtube.com
To quote one of the comments on youtube:
"
I missed the toppling of the Berlin Wall while playing Civ
I missed my sister's birth while playing Civ 2
I missed the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq while playing Civ 3
I missed Obama being elected president while playing Civ 4
Now I get to miss the end of the world playing Civ 5.
And you know what, I'm okay with that."

I really should break out my camera again and shoot/explore/experiment more. Hopefully I can do these kind of shots with ease next time. Check out this guy's photostream, some pretty awesome shots.

From the bottom of my pencilcase
This song has been hounding my mind for the longest time now. Before I did this search I never knew the title and band's name - used to call it the "From the Bottom of my Pencilcase" song - LOL. Video below is an updated version of the song from 2009 and the original lead singer is no longer in the band I think. Check out the video on YouTube:

Consumer Reports Won't Recommend iPhone 4
Consumer Reports says it can not recommend the iPhone 4 based on its lab tests of the device in which the magazine found a reception problem with the smartphone. Niraj Sheeth & Eric Savitz discuss. Plus, 4G Phone Shortages and Google's App Inventor.
via online.wsj.com
Yet more tests calling into question Apple's claims that the reception problems are software based and not really a faulty hardware design.
Personally, I might just go to one of the telcos in Singapore to try out the "Grip of Death" on an iPhone4 when it arrives.

Free Range Chicken In Singapore?
Imagine my surprise and shock at seeing a flock of chickens, complete set of hens and rooster (pictured here), roaming about freely in the heartlands of Singapore's Thomson/Sin Min area. Wonder where the hens are hiding their eggs?

Attempt on Gordan Ramsay's Beef Wellington Recipe
My first attempt at Gordan Ramsay's recipe for Beef Wellington. Not too bad for a first try, but I have to remember that his recipes tend towards the salty side and not add as much season as he does the next time. Puff pastry could be a little thicker too, but that's my own preference :)

Sometimes life just seem to lose its focus for a bit. That's why we need anchor points in our lives. What's yours?
