記憶與謊言《凶心人在寶萊塢》 (Ghajini)
A. R. Murugadoss 在Kollywood (泰米爾語系電影區) 享負盛名, 取材自Christopher Nolan的《凶心人》(Memento), 有別於一般Bollywood電影只懂搬紙過紙. 《Memento》是Christopher Nolan的實驗, 質疑記憶的主觀性.《Ghajini》側重娛樂性, 將意念抽絲剝繭, 再賦予濃厚懸疑感, 案中有
Narrative momentum: what I learned from Naruto and One Piece
Once upon a time, I started watching both Naruto and One Piece ;since they were both well regarded shonen fighting shows, I expected toenjoy them more or less equally. Instead and rather to my surprise, Isoon lost interest in One Piece but kept watching Naruto for muchlonger. Afterwards, I spent some time thinking about why and what thedifference between the two shows was, because it was not as simple asdisliking one set of characters while liking the other.

靜靜的生活
星期六日都會去掃墓，應該會有很多話會跟親戚說，因為平日有嘢都留番拜山先講，實情是我很少
銀絲卷
每次食銀絲卷都會想起兒時跟阿哥將D絲狂塞入鼻個窿，斗塞得多。
泡菜意大利粉, 爽到痺!《風塵三俠決戰地獄門》(The Good The Bad The Weird)
如果只能用一個字形容《風塵三俠決戰地獄門》(The Good The Bad The Weird), 本人的答案是: 爽!

古惑小劇場
《新宿事件》非常好看，處處極堪咀嚼，我終於首次深切認同爾冬陞是個才子。看的時候後面有一排古惑仔，熒幕外的重要風景。他們像集體看電視那樣大聲談
How to use Vixie cron to schedule at regular odd times

The first sort are rare and obvious when encountered, which means thatwhen you read a manpage you are generally trying to guess whether youare dealing with the second sort or the third sort. The problem is thatthere are significantly
System status announcements and where your users are
Commentators on my earlier entry brought up usingTwitter for system status announcements and the like. I think that thismakes sense for a lot of places, but I don't think it makes sense forus, and it has to do with where our users are; not in a geographicalsense, but in a network and Internet sense.
For many Internet companies, your users are outside, on the generalInternet, trying to get 'in' to you, and so using a status reportingsystem that is outside
