Universities Reshaping Education on the Web

July 17, 2012 No Comments

SOURCE: The New York Times

As part of a seismic shift in online learning that is reshaping higher education, Coursera, a year-old company founded by two Stanford University computer scientists, will announce on Tuesday that a dozen major research universities are joining the venture. In the fall, Coursera will offer 100 or more free massive open online courses, or MOOCs, that are expected to draw millions of students and adult learners globally.

Even before the expansion, Daphne Koller and Andrew Ng, the founders of Coursera, said it had registered 680,000 students in 43 courses with its original partners, Michigan, Princeton, Stanford and the University of Pennsylvania.

Now, the partners will include the California Institute of Technology; Duke University; the Georgia Institute of Technology; Johns Hopkins University; Rice University; the University of California, San Francisco; the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign; the University of Washington; and the University of Virginia, where the debate over online education was cited in last’s month’s ousting — quickly overturned — of its president, Teresa A. Sullivan. Foreign partners include the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, the University of Toronto and EPF Lausanne, a technical university in Switzerland.

And some of them will offer credit.

“This is the tsunami,” said Richard A. DeMillo, the director of the Center for 21st Century Universities at Georgia Tech. “It’s all so new that everyone’s feeling their way around, but the potential upside for this experiment is so big that it’s hard for me to imagine any large research university that wouldn’t want to be involved.”

Because of technological advances — among them, the greatly improved quality of online delivery platforms, the ability to personalize material and the capacity to analyze huge numbers of student experiences to see which approach works best — MOOCs are likely to be a game-changer, opening higher education to hundreds of millions of people.

To date, most MOOCs have covered computer science, math and engineering, but Coursera is expanding into areas like medicine, poetry and history. MOOCs were largely unknown until a wave of publicity last year about Stanford University’s free online artificial intelligence course attracted 160,000 students from 190 countries. Only a small percentage of the students completed the course, but even so, the numbers were staggering.

“The fact that so many people are so curious about these courses shows the yearning for education,” said Molly Corbett Broad, president of the American Council on Education. “There are going to be lots of bumps in the road, but this is a very important experiment at a very substantial scale.”

So far, MOOCs have offered no credit, just a “statement of accomplishment” and a grade. But the University of Washington said it planned to offer credit for its Coursera offerings this fall, and other online ventures are also moving in that direction. David P. Szatmary, the university’s vice provost, said that to earn credit, students would probably have to pay a fee, do extra assignments and work with an instructor.

Experts say it is too soon to predict how MOOCs will play out, or which venture will emerge as the leader. Coursera, with about $22 million in financing, including $3.7 million in equity investment from Caltech and Penn, may currently have the edge. But no one is counting out edX, a joint venture of Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or Udacity, the company founded by Sebastian Thrun of Stanford, who taught the artificial intelligence course last year.

Each company offers online materials broken into manageable chunks, with short video segments, interactive quizzes and other activities — as well as online forums where students answer one another’s questions.

But even Mr. Thrun, a master of MOOCs, cautioned that for all their promise, the courses are still experimental. “I think we are rushing this a little bit,” he said. “I haven’t seen a single study showing that online learning is as good as other learning.”

Worldwide access is Coursera’s goal. “EPF Lausanne, which offers courses in French, opens up access for students in half of Africa,” Ms. Koller said. Each university designs and produces its own courses and decides whether to offer credit.

Coursera does not pay the universities, and the universities do not pay Coursera, but both incur substantial costs. Contracts provide that if a revenue stream emerges, the company and the universities will share it.

Although MOOCs will have to be self-sustaining some day — whether by charging students for credentials or premium services or by charging corporate recruiters for access to the best students — Ms. Koller and university officials said that was not a pressing concern.

About two-thirds of Coursera’s students are from overseas, and most courses attract tens of thousands of students, an irresistible draw for many professors. “Every academic has a little soapbox, and most of the time we have five people listening to us,” said Scott E. Page, a University of Michigan professor who taught Coursera’s model thinking course and was thrilled when 40,000 students downloaded his videos. “By most calculations, I had about 200 years’ worth of students in my class.”

Professors say their in-class students benefit from the online materials. Some have rearranged their courses so that students do the online lesson first, then come to class for interactive projects and help with problem areas.

“The fact that students learn so much from the videos gives me more time to cover the topics I consider more difficult, and to go deeper,” said Dan Boneh, a Stanford professor who taught Coursera’s cryptography course.

The Coursera contracts are not exclusive, so many of its partner universities are also negotiating with several online educational entities.

“I have talked to the provost at M.I.T. and to Udacity and 2Tor,” which provides online graduate programs for several universities, said Peter Lange, the provost of Duke University. “In a field changing this fast, we need flexibility, so it’s very possible that we might have two or three different relationships.”

One looming hurdle is overcoming online cheating.

“I would not want to give credit until somebody figures out how to solve the cheating problem and make sure that the right person, using the right materials, is taking the tests,” said Antonio Rangel, a Caltech professor who will teach Principles of Economics for Scientists in the fall. Udacity recently announced plans to have students pay $80 to take exams at testing centers operated around the world by Pearson, a global education company.

Grading presents some questions, too. Coursera’s humanities courses use peer-to-peer grading, with students first having to show that they can match a professor’s grading of an assignment, and then grade the work of five classmates, in return for which their work is graded by five fellow students. But, Ms. Koller said, what would happen to a student who cannot match the professor’s grading has not been determined.

It will be some time before it is clear how the new MOOCs affect enrollment at profit-making online institutions, and whether they will ultimately cannibalize enrollment at the very universities that produce them. Still, many professors dismiss that threat.

“There’s talk about how online education’s going to wipe out universities, but a lot of what we do on campus is help people transition from 18 to 22, and that is a complicated thing,” said Mr. Page, the Michigan professor, adding that MOOCs would be most helpful to “people 22 to 102, international students and smart retired people.”

Eventually, Ms. Koller said, students may be able to enroll in a set of MOOCs and emerge with something that would serve almost the same function as a traditional diploma.

“We’re not planning to become a higher-education institution that offers degrees,” she said, “but we are interested in what can be done with these informal types of certification.”

Today's Realization

Today's uncomfortable realization was that I will never be able to run the way I want to when I'm carrying so much extra weight and fueling my workouts with fake food instead of the real deal. In the last six months, I've gained 15 pounds, even though I've been working out all the time. I might not always run, but I do something physical every day (walking, strength training, a class at the gym, etc). The reason for the extra weight? I've been using my workouts as an excuse to indulge in junk food - chips, candy, french fries, etc. I need to go back to the way I was eating last year and save the junk food for the occasional indulgence instead of the daily treat. I need to start using food to fuel my body.

Let's be real. Food is delicious. I'm never going to be skinny because I love food too much, and even my short runs make me feel hungry. That being said, there is no reason why I can't satisfy my cravings with real food instead of junk food. I know that I need to start eating healthier. I need to start satisfying my cravings for sweets with fruit instead of candy. Carrots or nuts could work when I'm craving something crunchy. Do I want something creamy? Yogurt would be a good choice.

Don't get me wrong. If someone offers me a slice of cake, then I'm going to eat it. But I'm not going to eat an entire cake in one day.

I love broccoli, you guys. I really do. Especially roasted with some garlic and carrots. Mmmm...delicious. But I haven't been eating it very often because it is so much easier to stop and buy a cheeseburger.

But you know what? Not only am I gaining weight, but I just don't feel all that great. I feel tired and sluggish pretty much all the time. My recent health problems could be at least partly caused by a terrible diet. It is time to buckle down and eat right. This will help improve my health, my running, my budget (all that junk food is expensive, y'all), and my waistline. It is an all around win!

FireEye filtering out legitimate emails

FireEye has admitted that an issue involving their filtering technology for email has caused messages that aren’t harmful to be quarantined for no reason. The glitch in the system persisted for two hours on Monday morning before the problem was fixed.

Needless to say an issue like this can cripple businesses. It can stop them from being able to operate if they use email as a method for communicating. This can lead to loss of business and also displays a bad image for both sides.

If you have been affected by anything similar give ITWiser a call. ITWiser offer lots of different services and products including mail filtering and web filtering solutions. Get in touch today for more information and find out how ITWiser can help you.

Liquid Telecom raises $150 million to extend broadband in Africa

Liquid Telecom has raised US$150 million to extend its fiber networks across Africa, a sign of the growing need for broadband services on the continent.

The company, controlled by African telecom company Econet Wireless, has already invested heavily in East Africa, where it is laying thousands of kilometers of new fiber-optic cable to connect Burundi and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The company has also already completed its East Africa fiber ring, which connects Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania, in order to provide high speeds and continuous uptime across the region.

Liquid will use the additional funds it raised to build fibre broadband networks in several other countries.

The company said the funds will also finance the ongoing Fibre To The Home (FTTH) builds in Kenya, Zambia, Rwanda and Zimbabwe, which will provide homes and businesses with unlimited data packages and 100Mbps, the fastest broadband that would be available in Africa.

The company has built a fiber broadband network spanning 18,000 km across 15 countries in the eastern parts of Africa from South Africa to Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The $150 million fund for the company has been structured, underwritten and syndicated by Standard Chartered bank to a small group of banks including Investec and Barclays.

Liquid Telecom CEO Nic Rudnick said its fibre to the home in Africa is better than in many parts of the U.K. and even London.

He said the company’s aim is to connect 100,000 homes by the end of the year with broadband that could reach speeds of 100Mbps. The U.K. average, in contrast, is about 20Mbps, he noted.

Liquid Telecom customers include other wholesale carriers, mobile networks operators, ISPs and financial institutions. It also operates retails businesses in Kenya, Rwanda, Zimbabwe and Uganda.

The Disappearing Frontiers of US Homeland Security: Mapping the Transit of Security across the US and Israel

In the wake of the 1995 Israeli bombing of the UN refugee camp at Qana in Lebanon, a videotape of the massacre was distributed across global media. The African American poet June Jordan, who had participated in US-based Palestine solidarity movements and would visit Lebanon in 1996, thought that the video would be a turning point in global opinion of Israel. Writing in the Progressive magazine, Jordan linked the Qana bombing to military and police violence she had witnessed ...

The State of Egypt Today: Political Protests and Freedom of Press

[Translation: [Translation: "Muslim Brotherhood Not Allowed." Banner hanging in Tahrir Square on December 4th, 2012. Image by Nour Ahmadein via facebook.]

On 22 November, thousands of protesters took to the streets when President Mohammad Morsi unilaterally granted himself sweeping powers to govern Egypt. He later rescinded some provisions of his decree but forced through a draft constitution and set a deadline for a popular referendum to enshrine it. Where is Egypt's political crisis heading? And who is in charge? VOMENA's Khalil Bendib put these questions to Cairo-based independent journalist Ahmad Shokr

Egyptian activists and journalists are mourning the passing of Al-Fajr reporter El-Husseini Abu Deif, who died from injuries sustained during last week's protests in Cairo. Journalists have taken to the streets in protest over systematic intimidation and harassment by Muslim Brotherhood supporters and their Salafi allies calling for “purification of media organizations.”

Over the weekend, more than two hundred media staff working for state-owned television channels marched against what they have described as “Islamist domination” of state media. This has been imposed by both the Morsi presidency and the Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated minister of information, Salah Abdel-Maksoud. Several newspapers went on a one-day strike last week to protest the draft constitution, which they believe will adversely affect freedom of press and expression. Malihe Razazan spoke with Adel Iskandar about the way freedom of press is being affected by current events.

My Book

About Me

Buy it!

Welcome to

my Website!

This is the website of me, James James (the famous author, not the canine physician from Hartepool).

Bugle & Yarrington is a comic satire on law, a parody of the proud English legal profession, a comedy of c*ck-ups (in more senses than one) and a work of great literary merit.

I know anyone who is anyone is meant to have an imposing web presence, but that concept just makes me feel like a boastful spider. And it presents deeper a question: Am I anyone?

My Book

For me, the first upsetting thing you will note is the title of this section is in the singular. If both the printed copies of my venerable tome sell, the second print run will commence. If both these sell as well, I might be allowed to publish another story, when this section will be more grandly entitled "My Books".

But for now I must make do with "My Book", a comic satire on law and the legal profession.

I had enormous fun writing it, and if you read it, I really do hope you enjoy it and that it makes you laugh.

About Me

I am a lawyer, which means that whatever I write here, a good proportion of you already think I’m an overpaid, puffed-up plonker. I say my case rests in the book.

I’m a fairly normal chap, really, living and working in London. I don't take buses, I avoid them. I like all the normal things: friends, music, eating, drinking and taxidermy.

When I'm not working (or pretending to), I like travelling and seeing the world. I could say I'm married, have two lovely kids and enjoy cookery, but only one of these is true.

I’m also meant to tell you about my education, such as it was, but you probably don’t give two hoots, so instead I will bring this section to a neat close.

Legal Stuff

(Don't sue me, I'm a lawyer)

Legal Advice

Bugle & Yarrington is definitely a work of fiction and is absolutely not autobiographical. All the characters I invented in my book are fictitious and any resemblance to real persons either living or dead is purely coincidental.

I cannot offer any legal advice. (You'd be totally bonkers to come to me for that in any case.)

But my publisher insisted that I had a website. Their argument was: "We need your presence on the web in order to sell you."

"I’m not for sale" fell on deaf ears and stern looks. So I promised to provide some copy and here it is.

After much eyeball rolling and concern over the frankly slapdash way in which I approached this task, and further worry that I would alienate potential readers of my book in the face of all known marketing methods, my publisher finally agreed to use my shot at this. Thank you Blue Mark Books!

Perseverance, Routines and a Cup of Coffee

{I've ordered you a coffee, why not stay a while?}

This is one of those weeks when I wish I could invite all you blogging friends around for coffee.  We'd sink into big, comfy couches and chat about our lives, our goals, and our dreams.

Life has been pretty routine around here.  Each morning I sit down in my studio and work on illustrations for a picture book that will come out next year (yay!).  Then I eat a small lunch, usually left-overs from yesterday's dinner.  After a short break, I go back to work in my studio. By late afternoon I'm ready for a coffee or hot-chocolate, and some quiet time with a book or your wonderful blogs.

Is there any individual moment of these routine days worth recording? The days are a little like the leafless trees of winter.  There are all sorts of colours and variations of texture if you look closely, but the outlines and structure are pretty simple.

I think it's these routine days that build our dreams.

It's the perseverance to keep working; to keep showing up at the drawing board; to not give up; and when things go wrong, to start all over again.

Routines are wonderful, because then showing up isn't a choice, it's a habit. It's not something you have to decide on every morning when you wake up, it's just something you do.

Gradually, after days and days, all those dreams will start to become a reality.  It's like dropping pebbles one by one into a lake.  At first it feels hopeless because the pebbles sink below the water and seem to disappear; but they don't. Each time you drop a pebble into the water, small ripples expand over the surface, touching everyone you know. Your small routines, your daily pebbles, are part of the essential fabric of this world.

Eventually, if you keep dropping pebbles every day, the underwater pile will grow large enough to form an island on which you can stand firmly.  Then, you can plant your flag and say, "This, finally, is what I've been working towards for so long."

What are we building with our daily routines, dropping pebbles one by one into the lake?  Maybe a career, a blog, a marriage, a family, a healthy body.... ?

I would love to know what you're working towards!

And, if you want a little diversion, here's an aria from J.S. Bach's "Coffee Cantata" where the soprano rhapsodies about her overwhelming love for coffee.

It's beautiful

Tibet / Xizang

First travel

Tibet: By jeep from Chengdu to Lhasa

Tibet is known as The Roof of the World!

General information
Tibet is located on the Tibetan Plateau , the worlds highest region. The worlds highest mountain, Mount Everest, is on Nepalese border with Tibet. The average altitude is about 3000m in the south and 4500m in the north. The land comprises the largest and highest plateau in the world, surrounded by immense mountain chains. The mountain chains are approximately 3000km in length, accommodating no fewer than fourteen peaks taller than 8000m. Mount Everest (Mount Qomolangma in Tibetan), at 8848m, is the most well known. The perilous mountain areas, deserts, swirling rivers and steel-blue lakes, the many yaks, and all the wonderful places and people give the impression that time has stood still.

Lhasa 3650m Potala Palace  Potala by night

There are over 800 settlements in Tibet, Lhasa is Tibets traditional capital and the capital of Tibet Autonomous Region. In Lhasa, situated at 3650m, tourists can visit the amazing Potala monastery, a world heritage site. Once the largest building in the world, the Potala is an impressive piece of construction thirteen stories high, with nearly one thousand chambers. The building occupies a footprint of 300 x 400 m and stands about 120 m tall. It was formerly the residence of the Dalai Lama, but he fled to Dharmsala, India in 1959 during a bloody war between the Tibetan and Chinese people, and the Tibetans still consider him their leader. Other well-known monasteries include the Jokhang and Drepung temples, both well worth visiting. The climate around Lhasa is very different from the areas closer to the mountain chain, with an average precipitation of no more than 200 mm. Due to this aridity, there is little vegetation and the area appears desert-like. Further south, toward the mountain, there is more precipitation and the flora is more diverse.

Several major rivers have their source in the Tibetan Plateau (mostly in present-day Qinghai Province). These include Yangtze, Yellow River, Indus River, Mekong, Brahmaputra River, Ganges, Salween and the Yarlung Tsangpo River.

Botanical Jeep Tour from Chengdu to Lhasa
Due to recent problems in Tibet and the Olympic Games, I was not sure I could travel to Tibet for a planned inspection tour in Summer 2008. Tibet was closed for foreigners and there was also a massive earthquake in Sichuan which prevented travel to Chengdu. In July I received an e-mail stating that it was possible to travel to Lhasa again and John Mitchell, my son, Mischa and I booked our flights to Chengdu.
3 weeks later, a message arrived from the Chinese travel agent saying it was possible to travel to Tibet, but only by air or train, not overland by jeep, as we did hoped. Since we had already booked the flight, I planned a new route through Sichuan province. Then, just two weeks before our departure we heard it was possible to travel overland from Chengdu to Lhasa, which was great news for us! My Chinese agent arranged all the necessary permits, eight different ones in all, including a military permit. At one of our checkpoints in Tibet, inspectors told us we were only the third group to receive permission to travel overland to Lhasa, which shows how much work and planning the agent devoted to smoothing our way.

The inspection tour ran from September 16 - October 2 and allowed us to scout for interesting botanical sites, check out hotel accommodation and measure travel distances. I must say that hotel accommodation are not like those of recent years in Yunnan or Sichuan, but much better than expected, even most hotels had western seat toilets, only a few had the French style squat toilets, and most of the hotels had also a shower.

The inspection tour was a great success, and we were able to see all we wanted, plus more locations. We traveled to unknown passes, had wonderful weather, and saw masses of plants, including many Gentians in full flower. In addition, the views were spectacular. We saw all three giant Chinese rivers: the Yangtze, Mekong, and Salween, as well as the giant mountains Minya Konka/Gongga Shan and the spectacular Namchak Barwa (7756m).

We did also see alpine meadows at 4000m, with many yaks grazing, and amazing plants like the very rare yellow Androsace bisulca var. aurata. Of course we paid several visits to monasteries, including the community in Litang, and the Jokhang and the magnificent Potala Palace in Lhasa.

Nothing lost in Johnnys R+J translation

Since Shakespeare got through the notoriously long wait for foreigners at Japanese immigration and started to settle down and assimilate the local culture, what sort of changes have been wrought on him by his extended sojourn on these shores?

Well, this month, at two venues around the top of the Yamanote Line loop, there’s a chance to encounter Shakespeare in two rather different Japanese guises.

Nowadays, the name “Romeo” likely calls to mind for many people the name of pretty-boy soccer star David Beckham’s youngest son. But before that, it only ever meant the handsome young Montague heir of Shakespeare’s tragedy, who was involved in a pure but doomed love affair with Juliet, daughter of the rival Capulets.

Against that cultural shift, then, it is perhaps fitting that the new owners of the Tokyo Globe Theatre, Johnnys Production Co. — the organization behind SMAP and countless other pretty-boy pop acts since the 1960s — chose “Romeo and Juliet” to christen its new venture at this fine venue near JR Shin Okubo Station in Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo.

Since the shock acquisition by Johnnys in 2002 of the Tokyo branch of London’s Globe Theatre, which had struggled with low attendances since 1988, theatergoers have waited with bated breath to see what would issue from this bizarre marriage of the highbrow and the populist.

Eyebrows were raised when Johnnys turned to television to promote its new enterprise. About a month ago Fuji TV ran a program in which this production’s Romeo (Johnnys’ own Noriyuki Higashiyama, a member of the pop group Shonentai) and Juliet (Asaka Seto, a TV actress and CM queen making her theater debut) were taken on a picturesque tour of London’s Globe Theatre and the English countryside. This approach clearly worked because the theater was full and the audience was noticeably skewed toward women in their 20s and 30s — some of whom could be heard in the interval talking about how this was their second or third trip to see their idol in his “gorgeous velvet costume.”

Hype can fill a theater, but is Johnnys’ “Romeo and Juliet” worth the fuss? The stage setting, as you enter, is certainly striking. The audience entrance is lined with flowers and the stage is strewn with blossoms. In the center of it stands a high bookshelf labeled (in Japanese) “Love story books fair.” Browsers check the books, then, when one pulls out “Romeo and Juliet,” the shelf falls back, the cast emerges and the play begins.

In Shakespeare’s home country, “Romeo and Juliet” is one of his most frequently performed plays, but Japanese audiences are not often treated to straight stagings of the drama. More often it’s encountered in ballet form, or as stripped-down “highlights” for small-scale stagings. This, however, is the real thing, simply but lucidly presented by leading director Shoji Kokami, with no concessions made to a populist target audience. It also boasts a modern new translation by Shoichiro Kawai, in contemporary Japanese and with rhymes and wordplay to mirror the original.

What’s revealed is a tale of tortured love that feels up to the minute, despite the medieval sets and costumes. The story speeds along, never less than absorbing. However the highlight is undoubtedly — and perhaps unexpectedly, at least for this critic — Higashiyama’s “Romeo.” The young star brings a wealth of stage experience, dancing and singing and playing to auditoriums as large as Tokyo Dome, to his portrayal of a noble and pure young Romeo. His sheer energy and exuberance is captivating, as when he shins effortless up to the theater’s second-floor balcony to embrace his love.

But this production is much more than simply a star turn. “Johnnys R+J” has been thought out down to the details, as when the rival families finally bury their differences along with their beloved children and old war newsreel footage is projected across the stage’s backdrop — followed by scenes from the invasion of Iraq. The message — that cycles of conflict, if left unbroken, exact a terrible price from those involved — couldn’t be clearer.

There’s no doubt on this evidence that the seemingly bizarre union of Johnnys and the Globe has the potential to enrich the Japanese entertainment world. Whether Johnnys could pull off “King Lear,” or plays with a mainly female cast, remains to be seen, but there’s plenty to applaud in this debut production that promises to revitalize a beautiful theater for a new, younger audience.

“Romeo and Juliet” runs till Feb. 7 at the Tokyo Globe Theater, a 10-minute walk from Shin Okubo Station on the JR Yamanote Line. For more details, call (03) 3366-4020 or (03) 3372-9574. The play then runs Feb. 21-25 at NHK Osaka Hall in Osaka; (06) 6233-8888. Tickets 6 yen,000-9,500 yen.

Just a couple of stops further east on the Yamanote Line there was a quite different take on Shakespeare playing at the Tokyo Arts theater in Ikebukuro last week. This “Kanadehon Hamlet” (lit. “Calligraphy-primer Hamlet”) was first performed in 1992, then staged at the Tokyo Globe Theatre (then the Panasonic Globe Theatre) two years later, before short runs in both New York and London.

Set in the Meiji Era (1868-1912), this is not a translation of “Hamlet” but a fascinating, fictional — and comical — story about the time when Shakespeare plays were first staged in Japan and the confusion experienced by the actors, largely from the world of kabuki, as they tried to grasp what Western drama was about.

It is 1897, and at the Shintomi-za kabuki theater in Tokyo a daring, artistically minded producer named Kanya Morita (Katsumi Kiba) is preparing to stage “Hamlet” for the first time in Japan. (Historically, the first Shakespeare play presented professionally in Japan was “The Merchant of Venice” at Osaka Ebisu theater in 1885).

We are treated to the sight of erstwhile kabuki actors wrestling hilariously with both the concept and then the practice of Western realist acting. During rehearsals, the star (Hiroshi Murakami) will insist on trying to strike a formal mie pose as he delivers Hamlet’s famed monologues. Then there’s a big squabble when the director and actors argue over their samurai-style topknots — which he wants cut and they refuse to lose (in a compromise the actors wear their hair loose).

And as for “To be or not to be,” well, the actors want it cut altogether. They’ve spent their lives immersed in the samurai spirit of Bushido, and fail to see how anyone worth a hero’s role could hesitate over such a straightforward matter of adauchi (revenge) in an honorable cause.

Then, with matters approaching a humorous resolution, as the actors are coaxed and coached through all these culture clashes, the play concludes with a quirky twist. Just as the opening night approaches, Morita’s finances collapse and all comes to nought. And so there’s a moral in this tale, as well as great entertainment: It’s no good having a vision unless you lay the groundwork well and ensure the means to realize it, too.

Beijing Trip Day 3 - Donghuamen Food Night Market

We went to a tea tasting session and then to a Kungfu Panda Live show before heading here. I guess I'll blog about that later depends on my mood though. Hehe.

Donghuamen Night Market is known to open only at nights and closes around 10pm. It is located in the northern end of China's most famous shopping street - Wangfujin, in Beijing.

When Fie and I showed up here, men wearing red caps were calling us saying "Halal food! Halal food!" Since it wasn't nice to simply ignore them, I came by to say hello and took a picture of them. Unfortunately for them, I left my wallet in the bus. LOL.

The ONLY halal food at the night market.
I walked down the street and observed the various foods and delicacies being sold there. And to my delight and shock.... I found these exotic food being sold.
Clockwise from upper left - Fried centipedes, silkworms, water beetles,
snakes, sheep penis (whaddahel?), and longhorns.
The stall owner kept hitting me with a stick because I was taking photos of the dishes with no intention of buying. HAHA.

The price? It ranges from RMB 15 to RMB 50 with the below as the most expensive food ever.
Oh-Em-Geeeeeeeee!!! Fried KING SPIDERS anyone?
I believe the picture below is the most popular dish around because only 8 left before close-up. LOL. Must be tasty. Lalala...

Full of protein, I reckon.
Thank god I already had my dinner because after feasting my eyes on these types of food would've caused lost of appetite. =)

Pic credit to Fie as testimony that I've been here!
I don't take much pictures of myself so most of my pictures were taken by Fie's camera. Since she's super busy, she managed to post only one blogpost on our Beijing trip. Do read her post. =)

Thankyou for reading and don't forget to vote for my blog in the Malaysia International Tourism Bloggers Award.

5 Ways To Strengthen Your Time With God

Let's be honest - it can be really difficult to find and/or make the time to spend with God each day. With the thousands of things we have to do, it can easily get swept up in the busyness of our lives and forgotten about. Even after all these years with the Lord, I still find myself missing my time with Him, getting distracted when I make the time and sometimes - just completely lost in the middle of it all!

Don't get me wrong - we all have good intentions. But sometimes it is just plain hard to make it happen. If we actually find the time, sit down and open up our Bibles, we often have no idea where to start, what to do or how to move forward. We get easily distracted by the other things pulling at our attention (that Instagram notification that just popped up on our phone) and end up feeling like failures in our devotional life with the Lord.

Here's a few things you can do to help yourself find the time to spend with God and make the most of it.

If we don't prioritize our time with God like an appointment that cannot be missed, it most likely won't happen. Make a date with God - set a time and place that you will meet with Him and stick to it. Are you a morning person? Get up early, pour yourself some coffee and carve out a good 30 minutes - an hour with Him. Are you an evening person? Go for it. Neither is right or wrong - just make sure you stick to it. Get rid of distractions! Put your phone away - close yourself in and away from the stuff that's trying to get your attention. Get specific on the place too - make sure it's somewhere you can focus in and be still before the Lord!

I know this sounds silly, but as someone who is passionate about fitness and personal training, I can tell you that working out our spiritual muscles can be incredibly similar to working out our physical muscles - you've gotta have a plan before you get into your workout! What does this look like? Come up with a format for your prayer time: 15 minutes or 2 chapters spent in the Word, 10 minutes in prayer, 5 minutes in worship. You can even create a few different templates to shake it up. Some days, I'll spend only in prayer - other days, only in the Word. Let the Spirit lead you but come up with a plan so that you don't find yourself wondering what to do!

Journaling has always been hard for me for a couple of reasons: I have horrible handwriting and it takes SO LONG TO WRITE. It's much easier to type - but I have found that by taking the time to hand-write in a journal, I give myself lots of time to slow down and process what I've been thinking through. It's also incredibly powerful to be able to look back through different seasons of life and see what God was speaking to me then and now. Get a journal and try to write in it consistently. Record what God is speaking to you. This is another activity you can add into your devotional time.

Like we talked about before. it's really important to be able to have a plan - whether it's a Bible reading plan, a devotional book or prayer points. However, our time with God should never be void of the Holy Spirit's leading - that's really the whole point of why we're doing this! Ask the Holy Spirit to lead you before you even start. He may have something completely different in mind for you than you had planned. Before your read Scripture - ask Him to bring it to life. Allow God to speak to you and lead you in everything you do.

I'm an external-processer - which means I can write down stuff in my journal all day but the only way I'm going to be able to make sense of what I'm going through is to talk it out with someone who's close to me. I have to speak it out. Maybe you're an internal processor and need to spend time alone to process. Whatever way you process information - do it. Take the time to go over what God spoke to you... what you read and what you're walking through right now.  I'm a big believer in letting people into your process - God never made us to live life alone. There's strength and understanding in sharing and learning from others. This is a great way we can measure our growth. The only way to know you're growing is to be intentional with it. Take some time to see how God is moving your forward!

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

What is TOS?

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) is a group of disorders that affect the nerves in the brachial plexus (nerves that pass into the arms from the neck) and various nerves and blood vessels between the base of the neck and axilla (armpit).  A syndrome is defined as a group of signs and symptoms that collectively characterize or indicate a particular disease or abnormal condition.

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome involves compression, injury, or irritation to the neurovascular structures at the root of the neck or upper thoracic region. Trauma, such as a hyperextension/hyperflexion injury (rear end whiplash type injury) has been associated with the onset of TOS.

TOS gets its name from the space (the thoracic outlet) between your collarbone (clavicle) and your first rib. This narrow passageway is crowded with blood vessels, muscles, and nerves. If the shoulder muscles in your chest are not strong enough to hold the collarbone in place, it can slip down and forward, putting pressure on the nerves and blood vessels that lie under it.

TOS can result from injury, disease, or a congenital abnormality. Psychological changes are often seen in patients with thoracic outlet syndrome. It is not clear whether these precede the onset of the syndrome or are the result of dealing with the pain and frustration of diagnosing and treating this condition. Accident victims suffering from thoracic-outlet syndrome may undergo conservative treatment initially. This would include medications and physical therapy. If conservative treatment does not relieve the symptoms, a person may require surgical interventions.

A variety of other signs / symptoms that may be confused with TOS including carpal tunnel syndrome, cervical spine disease with nerve root compression, tumors of the spinal cord or brachial plexus, as well as a variety of other neuromuscular disorders.

Signs and Symptoms of TOS

Vascular symptoms include:

  1. Swelling or puffiness in the arm or hand;
  2. Bluish discoloration in the arm or hand;
  3. Feeling of heaviness in the arm or hand;
  4. Pulsating lump above the clavicle (collarbone)
  5. Deep, boring toothache-like pain in the neck and shoulder region, which seems to increase at night;
  6. Easily fatigued arms and hands; and
  7. Superficial vein distention in the hand.

Neurological Symptoms Include:

  1. Parasthesia along the inside forearm and the palm (C8, T1 dermatome);
  2. Muscle Weakness and atrophy of the gripping muscles and small muscles of the hand;
  3. Difficulty with fine motor tasks of the hand;
  4. Cramps of the muscles on the inner forearm
  5. Pain in the arm and hand; and
  6. Tingling and numbness in the neck, shoulder region, arm and hand.

Treatment for individuals with TOS varies depending on the type. True neurologic TOS is generally effectively treated with surgery. Most other forms need only symptomatic treatment. Common or disputed TOS requires conservative treatment, which may include drugs such as analgesics, and physical therapy to increase range of motion of the neck and shoulders, strengthen muscles, and induce better posture. Some cases of disputed TOS may require surgery (although, like the diagnosis, surgery is controversial). Heat, analgesics, and shoulder exercises have been used with limited success in individuals with traumatic TOS. Surgery may be needed in some cases. Vascular TOS often requires surgery.

Hello everyone!

I would like to introduce my first java game which is as well my first android game called Numerus. It is an abstract strategy game played on chessboard with very original game mechanisms. Here are some images:

Check out our trailer video:
;hl=en_US&start=

It is something different than most of the games posted here, which are action/arcade games. If you make such game the biggest challenge is probably the graphics. If you make a game like Numerus, it is more about the game mechanics and of course the AI. But that doesn't mean graphics are completely irrelevant so I did my best to make it also look good.

Those of you, who like such games as chess, checkers or go should definitely give it a try. Here are the links:

Applet version is playable on our fresh new website:
Android version is available at google play:
Rules are included in the Android version. If you are going to play the apllet version, read the rules here:

Have fun!
I am looking forwad for any feedback.

I probably should have read the rules first. Initially I thought it was like an odd game of Go. However, it's a rather interest game and design. The only issue that I have is that the music annoys me (Personal opinion), but I always forgot about that a few seconds in (And it's easily disabled).

I should say that I'm trying it on an Android and haven't had any issues yet.

I downloaded it yesterday and played against the computer on easy. I must say that the game has a nice concept and gameplay. It is definitely more difficult than the average board game, and I haven't been able to win even a single game, yet!

It's a quite promising game, and I will keep playing it.

Easy is pretty much always beatable in 3 steps, so I think that's a good challenge.

I'd either improve the loading times with a lot (for such a simple game it shouldn't take more than a second to go from the menu to the game board), or add loading screens.

There is also a problem that the redraw only happens when something changes, so when the applet goes into "sleep mode" when for example being minimized it never comes back.

Thanks for the tips.

In the new update (1.1) I have added a loading screen (it takes some time to load all the images and I can't do anything about that Sad ). The problem with redrawing screen after minimizing is also fixed.

I have reduced dificulty of easy and normal AI as well, because more people told me that they are little bit frustrated about the fact, they can't beat even the easiest difficulty. And I don't want to discourage any players at the beginning. However hard and very hard remained the same for those who are looking for some challenge.

Btw, what do you think about the new sounds in this update?

    Default Aggregating java requests.

    I am trying to request some weather forecast information for more than 2000+ cities in the world. The API won't let me generate requests infinitely. Therefore, I would like to know how can I aggregate requests and send them in one batch in java? for example, I want to send to the API 1 request containing 3 countries. how can I do that?

Food Panda : food is only a click away

Life in instance has been part of our life.
Packed schedule, daily routines, meetings, traffic jam, and our recent flood problem invaded our time. Those things sometimes keep us from our daily needs. We have no time to go out for a lunch or dinner, to reach our favorite meals. Things to be grateful for, technology treat us well. Delivery service is just a click away.
Food Panda understands, and ready to provide our needs of food!

Like I told you, it's just a click away. Open Enter the city and location of yours, and it will come up with selections of available restaurant for delivery. (Bali, Bandung, Jabodetabek, and Surabaya)
Click the restaurant, and it is equipped with the menu from the restaurant, too!

What I love about it is the simplicity. Food Panda keeps it simple by providing the exact information that we need. You can also see the additional information, like the estimated time for delivery and minimal delivery order on the screen. Choose your favorites, add the + sign, and your choice of food is available on the cart.
Proceed to check out, sign in, (or sign up if you are new), and just wait for the ring bell on your doorstep!
(just don't forget to pay it cash! ;) )

You can also find some good deals from the restaurants. Easily find on the web. Glad to hear, you can also download Food Panda application so you can use it whenever you want to (get it from ) It's amazing how easy life can be, huh?

The algorithm of the-easy-way-to-enjoy-your-food. ;)

Since I used to work at a dealer ship I'll say. Trans take it to a good trans shop and have them change ''all'' the fluid in the trans and ask them to use the thick Chrysler gasket .. This stinking gasket cost about $40.00 but about 2 weeks later you'll be glad you used it. After you get over the trans job. I'll say you'll spend about 150 on this. If it still slips then you need a rebuild .
... $600.00 I'd say you stole it but you have to bring it up to date. I got mine for $400.00 and say items you said. New battery .. New fuel ...tune up. I had to have the rebuild on my trans $1000.00 .. A Set of new tires ..
.... Mine still ran rough So I ran 3 tanks of 93 gas and about as many bottles of Lucus thru it and I've had it on about 4 road trips.. I'm amazed at how much better it is running .
..... Good Luck.

I am looking at neotex seat covers for my 2000 SE. How do I know if I need high back or low back?

Christians are becoming interested in Reiki and are practicing it. They have found that Reiki is a useful technique that helps them express compassion toward others and relieve suffering at the same time that it creates a closer connection for them to God. Reiki is a laying on of hands similar to what Jesus practiced. Christian churches have a long tradition of adopting practices that enhance the spiritual life of its members based on examples of Jesus’ actions described in the Bible. Some churches use music and liturgy; others use silence and inspired prayer; some worship on Saturday and others on Sunday; some use dance and others sit throughout much of the service; some baptize by immersion and others by sprinkling water on the head; some honor saints and seek their help while others seek angelic experiences. In Christian worship, the cross is used as a focus of worship complemented by candles, music, prayer beads, bells, incense, and other ritual items. These many and varied practices indicate the range of methods that different Christian groups incorporate to follow the teachings of the Bible and to come closer to God. While they are different, they all fall within the definition of Christianity. As Christians seek ways to increase and strengthen their spiritual moments, many have adopted practices to develop the “Gifts of the Spirit.”

 In I Corinthians 12:4-12, Paul speaks of the gifts to including speaking wisdom and knowledge and the power to heal.   Also Paul describes people within the church having roles as apostles, prophets, teachers, those who perform miracles, those who heal, those who direct others and those who speak in strange tongues (I Corinthians 12:28-31). Because one of the spiritual gifts is healing, devoted Christians who take direction from the above scripture have looked into the laying on of hands and more recently, the practice of Reiki. In addition, many Christian seekers have found John 14:12 an important source of guidance as well as reassurance that becoming healers it is not only possible, but also something we as Christians should develop if we feel spiritually guided to do so: “I am telling you the truth: whoever believes in me will do what I do-yes, he will do even greater things because I am going to the Father” Within that quotation is both instruction and challenge.  As Christians search for ways to follow more fully Jesus’ teachings and examples in order to draw closer to God, it is important to be aware of the examples Jesus set for us. Many of these focused on healing others (Matt: 14:14, Mark 3:10, Luke 4:38-39). Much of his healing was done by laying on hands. Here are a few examples:

·  In Matthew 8:14-15, Jesus uses touch to heal Peter’s mother-in-law of a fever.

·   In Mark 1:40-42 Jesus uses his hands to heal a man with leprosy.

·   This is also mentioned in Luke 5:12-13.

·   Matthew 20:29-34 describes how Jesus healed two blind men by touching their eyes.

·   In Mark 8:22-25 Jesus uses his hands to heal another blind man.

·   In Mark 7:32 35 he uses touch to heal a man who is deaf and can’t speak.

·   In Luke 7:12-15, Jesus raises a dead man by touching his coffin

     In Luke 8:49-55 Jesus uses touch to return a dead girl to life.

Scripture clearly indicates that laying on of hands is appropriate for Christians. Christians who have a solid foundation in their faith know that God will always protect and guide them. Those Christians who practice Reiki do so within the guidance and protection of God secure in the belief that they have been guided to follow Jesus’ example.

Hah-vahd Revisited

June 1st, 2009 § Comments Off on Hah-vahd Revisited § permalink

How to begin? It was Hah-vahd weekend for Adam as MBAs crawled out of their holes from all over the world to descend upon Allston for reunion weekend. I tried putting on my nice face, but apparently it didn’t work very well, as I did get in a wee bit of trouble: Apparently Twittering through the section event was apparently not the way to make new friends. But since that was what I was up to anyway, here were a few of my observations:

# I’m paying $15 an hour for a kid-free night. That damn well be a midget over there.7:22 PM May 29th from web

# Adam keeps looking at me like I’m supposed to mingle. Sorry, babe. Mingling costs extra.7:36 PM May 29th

# Adam is trying to explain why the lecture “why smart people don’t change” was so brilliant. Let’s all pat our own backs here. Riiiiight.8:41 PM May 29th

# People are already talking about their second marriages. HBS knows how to breed them. 9:48 PM May 29th

# This thing is supposed to end in 8 minutes and I still haven’t gotten my freakin’ cake. MBA efficiency, my ass.9:52 PM May 29th

Anyway, it was highly suggested that I have an attitude readjustment for Saturday, and I did my best to comply. In my defense, Friday night’s activity was not set up well–too small a space, too short an open bar, too mediocre food, and too many people I didn’t remember (wait, does it count as not remembering if you’ve repressed the memories?). Luckily, I wasn’t the only one who behaved badly, but since I’m attempting to be nice here, I’ll skate over other peoples’ rudeness. I’m nice like that. I will give some folks credit though: After all these years, people finally got my name right. Jenny Brown. Jenny Medros is a figment of MBAs’ imaginations (yes, I’m giving them enough credit to assume they have imaginations–I told you, I’m being nice here).

Saturday’s day event was fine–the kids’ area was okay, although whoever thought that turkey, cheese, lettuce, and raspberry mayo on a sun-dried tomato wrap was a good lunch for kids, obviously never met my kids. The grown-up lunch’s mac & cheese and bread was much more kid satisfying. The kids did a fabulous job behaving, even through the section’s trip down memory lane (Doodles loved the slide show and now apparently thinks that business school is filled with guys dressed as women). They were amused to be sitting at the same desks that Daddy sat at, and bribing them with gum to keep quiet worked pretty well. The presentation brought up some sore memories (I still can’t believe Adam didn’t vote for me as a “better half”) but also some fun times and surprise, surprise, they even poked fun of me for this wee, little, harmless blog.

The gala on Saturday was actually quite nice. Because of the economy, the event was downsized so instead of a black-tie gala, it was a cocktail-attire gala. I’m still not completely sure what the distinction is there, but apparently to someone, there is one.

Walking in was a bit odd because the halls were lined with security guys. Seriously, we passed four of them before we even entered the event. We couldn’t figure out who was coming who warranted this. Turns out… it was us. Signs at the bar read, “No shots, no straight-up drinks, only one drink per guest at a time.”

Apparently, at last year’s reunion, the MBAs got loaded and there were actual brawls. A beer bottle over a head. A couple battling it out when he thought she was flirting too much. A bit of blow going on in the corner. Way to go class of ’03!! I think I might have had more fun had Adam started just a year earlier.

But the food was fabulous, the views were great, and I got to talk to almost everyone I wanted to talk to (Meg, if you read this, I searched for you! I was bummed I never found you). We had friends staying with us and that was fun. Kevin and Shannan were two of my HBS favorites, and Shannan was absolutely my partner in crime at the reunion and we had a–gasp!–good time.

Of course, there were a few revelations this weekend. A marriage ended here. Jobs changed there. And the biggest, most horrifying revelation of all: As I was telling Shannan how I love my new remodel, but I’m starting to take it for granted; as I mentioned that I just don’t do crumbs, that’s what a house cleaner is for; as I mentioned how nice it is being home with the kids and that I’ve been managing to have dinner on the table for the whole family at 6:30 every night, it dawned on me…. Of all the CWITs (corporate wives in training) of our HBS years, I am the winner of the Corporate Wife Extraordinaire award. What? Really? Moi?

Dah-ling. It’s quite an honor. I’ll tell you all about it. Let’s chat over martinis and manicures. Your Black Card or mine?

Doodles said on the Twirling Turtles–as we're whipped around at top speed and his friend exclaims, "My stomach is all the way in my chest!"– "I don't know how Dad can not like this!" Um, I might have an idea.

The Italian sausage and ice cream with sausages just after the Twirling Turtles and right before the Teacups may have been a mistake. Just sayin'.

Spotty service is foiling my posting plans. Doodles has two friends here, both girls, and they're fighting over who gets to sit next to him. Hope he doesn't get used to it. I took the kids on the Krazy Barn. Now I'm Krazy Nauseous. Ready to watch the freaky cats at the Hannaford Circus. Do you wish you were me?

Nothing like mediocre coffee in the morning to pump you up. Yea, Glen Junction breakfast! Or, as Adam says, it would be better called Ultimatum Point because every second sentence uttered is, "If you don't X, then no Storyland!" Children fortified with chocolate chip pancakes. Time to hit the park!

Sometimes It’s Rock Bottom That Changes You

Pain is knowing what needs to be done to change things, but not taking the action to do it.

Sometimes it is rock bottom that changes you as a person. Sometimes you have to go through your most dark experiences in order to make the life changes you know you need to make. I understand this pretty well as I went through this earlier in the year.

You’ll know rock bottom when you feel in your darkest hell that you’ve ever felt. You’ll cry, scream, be angry, and frustrated with yourself and everything that has happened to you. This is actually a good thing. It’s the universe’s way of telling you a change is needed. Our bodies know intuitively what we want – and I believe our own cells pull us toward what we are meant to do and to deny that is to put yourself through pain.

Think about it like this: you know you need to lose a little weight, eat better, etc… But life is going along fine and there seems to be no problems, so why worry about it? Then one day you get the news that some of your arteries are clogged. All of a sudden, making the choice to do it becomes more urgent.

For me, it was realizing that my life was meant to take a dramatic shift this year and it was not an easy thing to go through. There was a lot of crying, screaming, and down right brutal pain inside me. In the end, I knew what I had to do and you see me now on my own doing these videos very much at peace and centered with who I am.

Don’t fear the rock bottom – embrace it. Once you get through it, you’ll have a power to move forward in your life far greater than you’ve ever had.

The Snare

lshookDaily Devotionals

The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe (Proverbs 29:25 NKJV).

The fear of man is one snare that every Christian will have to face and conquer at some pointing life.

As long as you care more about other people’s expectations and what they think about you than what God’s Word says about you, you will not be free to fulfill God’s call on your life. So, how can you determine if you are ensnared by the fear of man? Let me ask you a few questions:

Do you get depressed when you perceive people are thinking negatively about you?
Do you feel insecure if your Christian peers think you are carnal or that you’ve missed God?
Do you spend hours thinking about how to set the record straight?
Do you always seek to justify your decisions or actions?

This type of thinking is indicative of a spirit of fear—specifically the fear of man—operating in your life. The fear of man is a form of mental bondage that serves as a snare. It will entrap you with worry and will rob you of the inner peace that is yours in Christ.

Jesus said, “How can you believe, who receive honor from one another, and do not seek the honor that comes from the only God?” (John 5:44 NKJV). In other words, receiving honor from man prevents you from seeking what comes only from God.

Instead of caring what others may think of you, cast the care of your situation onto God and then trust Him to sort things out His way. Trusting God will free you from the snare of the fear of man. When you cast off your care and trust God to look after your reputation, insecurity will be a thing of the past. You will no longer need to look to people’s opinion of your for security (after all, their opinions are subject to change).

Who you are in Christ is unchangeable. So release yourself from the snare of the fear of man and put your trust completely in God. When you do, you will enjoy a life of freedom, secure in the knowledge of who you are in Christ.

Confession: I refuse to allow other people’s opinions of my ideas, decisions, and actions to ensnare me and steal my peace. I cast my care on God, knowing that He cares for me and will sort out everything to my benefit. My security is based solely on God’s Word and who He says I am in Christ.

Pope says it is wrong to equate Islam with violence

Yeah right!  Then I guess he hasn’t read…

…the Bible, the Quran, or the newspapers.  I’m pretty sure jihad translates into Spanish.

Barring that, he can see the pictures all over the Internet – they truly are worth 1,000 words in this case…

Chrome Base

Here you can see a bit more about my new chrome process that I am using as a base for helmet painting. I am using Alsa Chrome FX. The system uses a chemical reaction to leave a fine coat of silver on the helmet. The beauty of this is anything that you can paint can now have a mirror like chrome finish. I experemented with chrome paints but this is the next level I'll quickly run you through the process.

A mobile version can be found here

Stage 1

First the helmet has to be primed as normal then base coated which has to be perfect becasue any imperfections even finger prints show straight through the silver. In this picture the now dry base coat is being washed with deionised water.

Stage 2

Now the helmet is fully washed it's time to flood it with activator this coat has to soak the helmet leaving no dry spots

Stage 3

Now for the magic, after the helmet is rinsed with deionised water for a second time it's time to hit it with the silvering chemicals.

Stage 4

Once the helmet is chrome it has to be fully rinsed off again with deionised water any of the chemicals that are left on at this stage will discolour the chrome in time.

Stage 5

The helmet now has to be blown dry with an air line any water marks left will damage the surface. Once dry stand back and enjoy it. This chrome system can be tinted in any colour that you can get a candy paint.
