Sunday 10-11-2009

On Sunday, we went to SF zoo with some friends.

Henry knew most animals now and were still very curious about them.

Last time he was 6 months old and could not recognize most of the animals.

The weather was the same as it was last time, cloudy and cold.

Podcasts

I have been thinking to check out podcasts in Itune for a while.

Finally I did it and realized there are useful brodcasts.

- Marketplace by APM one of my favorites.

- JapanesePod101.com - I listened to one of the conversations today and it was straight forward and easy to understand.

Now I have something other than music while walking after lunch.

9/13/2009 Bike ride towards Coyote Park

After fixing the tire, my neighbor invited me for a ride last Sunday.
He personally rode the trail already so there was no surprises on the road.
We started around 9 am and back home around 12:30 pm.
Detail route.

home made 水煎包

Henry likes to eat 水煎包. Therefore we bought a Panasonic bread machine for making the buns.

I brought a few for lunch last week and shared with coworker James.

July 4th Weekend

Again, stuck in the project.
There is alwasy something surprising happened near the end of a project. But anyway...

Fortunately, there are great and helpful people around me in the work. I appreciate their help.

Hopefully, this project will be finished in 2 weeks.

====================================

We took Henry to Children's Discovery Museum.
He likes to play with water...guess most children are like that ...

Iphone 3 GS

About 1 month ago, firstly I upgraded to a LG Vu. The screen is quite small and the interface was not very friendly. Then I exchanged it to a LG Flip phone.

In mid-June, Apple announced that they will upgrade current Iphone 3G. I have been debating to buy it because of the 30 dollars data plan.

Finally, I purchased an Iphone 3GS this week. I now understand why Iphone is a success now. The Iphone is just convenient to use except I am still not used to the touch-screen keyboard.

1 useful application is YouTube on the go. Occasionally I will be with Henry alone. If he is too active, we can watch some free shows such as Sesame St or cartoons. He will stay quietly for a while.
Overall, Iphone is worth the money. Next, I may try to find on how to make iphone apps.

We left home earlier for this event. It became really warm after 12 pm.
There are many people coming late. The turn out was quite good I guess.

There will be a new water park opened this summer. Maybe we will let Henry go there and play some water activites.

Aqua Adventure.

Jackie Chan

For a person in his status, he should think more before making such a comment.
If he really cannot hold it back, he should speak more explicitly and clearly.

Or he should be making any comments on politics. He just needs to concentrate on what he does best.

Smog check failed...

My 2003 M3 with 50K miles failed one of the categories. (HC-hydrocarbo means incomplete burned oil)

The dealership said, checking -$175 , fixing depends on the parts varying from $500 to $2000.

Post the question into M3 forum, people kindly replied my post and made the suggestions,

1. buy fuel injection cleaner ($12 chevron techron) and use it. NOT to buy the cheap ones.
2. drive the car for 20 mintues before going to the check station. (not sure how this can help; i suppose other people had the practical experience)

My own conclusion,
3. dont buy a performance car next time.

Work assignemnts

Does the economy really recovers?

It seems that we have a lot of projects coming this year.
In addition to the ones we have, there will be 9 more coming.

It is going to be a busy year...
