I'm not sure how much you guys/girls know about what the Chinese people go through but its a load of shit really.
China has the fourth largest economy and is growing at a rate never before seen in modern history(and possibly in human history) but still rural china lives in poverty and the people of the city live in fear of authority.
I was once extremely anti-America for their involvements and support of overseas conflict but seeing what the Chinese government is capable of...i have become the b… Continue

Last night I went to the Art Gallery of South Australia for an amazing event called DepARTure. The program is made especially for people in their 20s and 30s to introduce them to art and culture in a creative and fun social setting. Personally I just get a kick out of being in the Art Gallery after hours and getting a chance to see a sneak peek of a new exhibition within the gallery. The free drinks and entertainment are just a bonus. Last nights event gave me an opportunity to see the 2008 Adel… Continue
I'm trying to find a nugget of humor in the fact that's it's been over a month since we've had an episode. If my girlfriend told me it's been over a month since her last "episode", I'd be asking some serious questions. Can you see a nugget in there?
Realistically, I don't think we should get our hopes up about the greatness of the next episode. Zadi and Steve have given us nothing but the best they can, every time. As wonderful, insightful and fun as it is, how can we expect anything more than… Continue
I'm already tired of hearing about GTAIV. I'm really not that big of a fan of the series. They're ok games, but it gets repetitive and overwhelming, and worst of all: The universe seems to have a boner for it.
Much of my time online in the last week has been trying to find anyone talking about anything not related to GTAIV. It's like that guy at the party that won't stop talking about barbecue or his stamp collection.
If you've spent any time online in the last week (and assuming you're… Continue
Yep, once again I crashed my laptop and this is my fault because I left my computer open and uplugged and then when I was turning it on it frozed and lost the hard drive. I was really depressed that this had happen again and now have to start from scratch again. When my mom and I took to the apple store to get it fixed, we had to pay for it this time because my MacBook was no longer under warranty. We paid $300 to replace the hard drive. I now have it back going to start taking better care of it… Continue

Are Your Medical Records at Risk?
Amid Spate of Security Lapses,
Health-Care Industry Weighs
Privacy Against Quality Care
By SARAH RUBENSTEIN
April 29, 2008; Page D1
When it comes to protecting the privacy of patients' computerized information, the main threat the health-care industry faces isn't from hackers, but from itself.
In a spate of recent security lapses at hospitals, health insurers and the federal government, private information on hundreds of thousands of patients, ranging from Socia… Continue

To be honest, I'm kinda petty. I'll hold a grudge until it becomes too much work to do so. I've never gone so far as to revenge myself against someone, but the notion is interesting.
Why do we feel a need to get even? I suppose it stems from the need to assert one's identity. Being victimized robs one of his power over himself, and it's not a terrific leap of logic to try to take that power back from the person who took it from you.
I like vengeance movies. Park Chanwook has done a couple of r… Continue
The quote below was pulled off the ABC news website earlier tonight (www.abc.net.au/news)
The Olympics should be successful and will be successful," said a 26-year-old e-commerce student who identified himself only as Wang.
He carried a huge Chinese flag and another was painted on his face.
"One China and One Nation. The pro-Tibetan demonstrators are liars," Wang said.
"Tibet was, is, will always be a part of China," read one banner.
The funny thing about this quote is how it selectively ig… Continue

OK.
So, first a few caveats:
This is a part of a conversation I was having with someone here on mix. I'll not mention who here, in case they do not desire to be known (I see no reason for this, but I don't like to presume upon people).
Secondly, if you're not into navel-gazing abstract theoretical blah blah blah, you should probably not read any further.
Are you sure?
Ok, you've been warned.
Still with me? Good.

Blumner: Obama chose right word: Who wouldn't be 'bitter' about being Bushed?
Robyn Blumner
Article Last Updated: 04/21/2008 04:56:52 PM MDT
Barack Obama may have been a little too blunt in his now infamous quip about how the economic insecurities gripping small-town America manifest themselves, but the word ''bitter'' perfectly sums up my feelings these days.
You bet I'm bitter.

I went out one morning not long ago and it was the first Saturday that Ive been out a little while. I went downtown to Woodruff Park and the usual people were there. The homeless ones.
I walk through downtown Atlanta just about everyday and each day I see the same stuff. Mostly people in despair or people doing dope, selling dope, etc. I have been open about my history and seeing these things isn't anything new to me.…
On Sunday 27th April Polly Phillpot is planning to abseil (rappel) from the Forth Rail Bridge, a mere 165ft, dressed as a frog, to raise funds for the EAZA (European Association of Zoos and Aquaria)2008 Year of the Frog Campaign.

So, I guess this goes to show what a horrible person I can be, or how easily distracted, or perhaps you'll pull something else out of it.
Friday nights have never meant much to me. I've been employed since I was 17, and for the first eight years of that, it was in the restaurant industry. I'd often be in school during this, so Friday night was often prime working hours. Now that I'm a normal 9-5 schlubb, I have my Friday nights free, and I'm not used to that. I usually find myself watching an o… Continue

Yeah, i was simply checking around this chatroom a few minutes back and apparently, there was a hot topic on "5 things you would want to do before you die".

A 6 year old and a 4 year old are upstairs in their bedroom.
'You know what?' says the 6 year old. 'I think it's about time we started cussing.'
The 4 year old nods his head in approval. The 6 year old continues,'When we go downstairs for breakfast, I'm gonna say something with 'hell' and you say something with 'ass'.
The 4 year old agrees with enthusiasm.

I'm going to come right out and say it: I really like Barak Obama. I think he's energizing and inspiring, and I think he'll make a great president.
Forget that I said that for a moment.
The culture of the United States has gone through a tremendous shift in the last twenty or so years. The business community has taken this on board and taken advantage of it. With our affluence, we've become increasingly individualistic. The products one buys reflect who he views himself to be. Ad campaigns no… Continue

Ok so whenever im at university, ever so often, i find myself getting into an arguement with people, as to whether a person with better grades is smarter than somebody with say average grades.

So, my room-mate picked up Assassin's Creed for the PC because he can and he did. I've had a little bit of a hand at it, and here's what I think:
You've got to admit, the game is pretty, and having a pretty girl (Jade somethingorother, who was the producer of the game, I believe) doing much of the press for it wasn't a bad marketing strategy either. As a console game, it probably stands out.
In the move to PC, much is lost in the translation.
First, an odd thing happened the second time my ro… Continue

I absolutely love it. It's so healthy and deliciousss! I got the Caribbean Passion while my friend got the 3G Energy one, which tasted disgusting. Mine was amazing though.

Don't worry. This is a Rick Roll Free Zone.
Internet trends fade in and out, defining flash-in-the-pan, and becoming universal experiences. How many have not seen 2 Girls 1 Cup, the dramatic chipmunk, the Numa Numa kid, or have no idea what "All Your Base" means?
And now we can add to that list, the Rick Roll. If you don't know what it is by now, you're probably the last person, and for your sake, I'll include a brief description. A "Rick Roll" is a net prank whereby one is lured to clicking o… Continue

"There are many who come to challenge us in life. Throughout youth, many peers who seem to be destroying with the harsh words they spit are really giving us the choice and opportunity to let ourselves be strengthened by experiences they are playing only a pawn’s role in.
There are times in each of our lives, hopefully, when we are pushed beyond a comfortable limit. It is here that we learn to truly know ourselves, as we struggle to regain control against the fury our adversaries may inspire. I… Continue

OK, let's start out with the obvious statement: Smoking is bad for you. It makes your breath smell, your bodily fluids taste bad, your clothes smell, your teeth yellow, but most importantly: your wallet thin.
The price of cigarettes has been going up for some time now, since the one tax everyone is keen on is sticking it on a pack of cigarettes. Poor people to the rescue! That is, everyone except smokers, who are generally poor enough not to matter, right?
anyway, I know the health concerns an… Continue
