Chinese Zodiac - Year of the Ox
The Ox or Bull
People born in the Year of the Ox are patient, speak little, and inspire confidence in others. They tend, however, to be eccentric, and bigoted, and they anger easily. They have fierce tempers and although they speak little, when they do they are quite eloquent. Ox people are mentally and physically alert. Generally easy-going, they can be remarkably stubborn, and they hate to fail or be opposed. They are most compatible with Snake, Rooster, and Rat people.
You are a born leader. You inspire confidence. You are demanding. You are methodical and good with your hands. You will make a good surgeon, general or hairdresser.
At TKD I heard that I will most likely be fighting Jason Ong, a national fighter. I've seen him fight before. His skill surpasses me by leaps and bounds. I will really need to go all out to take him on.
Sian. This IVP is looking very unfavourable for me. After all that training, yet with the possiblity of losing.

Really useless.
I have fallen sick, yet I still went for training in school. I wonder why. My pattern is undoubtedly the worst. I will probably be kicked out of the team and put as a reserve when it finally comes down to the crunch to choose the 3 to actually perform. I want to be on the team!
Actually ever since I've joined the club, I don't feel very in tune with people in there, it isn't just the black belt Koryo pattern team, but rather the whole club on a whole. I feel that I am the weakest link on the Koryo team, during sparring sessions, I am not impressing shi fu, nor the pres nor the seniors.
I feel really useless at my current skill level.

World's smallest working fuel cell
World's smallest working fuel cell has high potential, low voltage
University of Illinois researchers have developed what they claim is the world's smallest working fuel cell, and it's certainly a good bit tinier than anything we've seen. The tiny battery measures 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm and is comprised of just four layers: a water reservoir, a thin membrane, a chamber of metal hydride, and an assembly of electrodes.
It can produce 0.7 volts and a 0.1 mA for about 30 hours, with a newer model being able to produce 0.7V and 1mA! That's not gonna juice your BlackBerry anytime soon, but scientists suggest it could be used for simple electronics and microbots.
Finally battery technology is getting some improvement.

The new MSN sucks shit.
The new MSN sucks shit.
I just want a stable, doesn't crash, concise, self-customizable, chatable chat program without all the stupid pictures and shitty emoticon crap. They keep shoving all this aesthetic graphic features in new programs and you wonder why we don't have enough processing power despite all the hardware advances we have today.
I miss mIRC. That was the best chat program I've ever used.

Marina Barrage Recce
Today the all the Nueve ACGLs went over to the Barrage for our Night Recce and discussion on the flow-plan. It was a nice place with a great scenery and view. Some nice pics taken during the recce for sharing... It's too bad my venerable lumix camera can't capture the splendor of the lighting effectively at all. (Need a DSLR!) But the view is very refreshing.
Great view over the Marina bay and flyer...
ACGLs all ready for fright night...
