The VW Transparent Factory
Now I know why they charge $95,000 for a Phaeton. But the factory is awesome! Esp the Wall-E robots that carries parts around in the factory!

I dreamed a dream - Susan Boyle
I don't usually watch American Idol and shows alike. But with my respected 李怡 praising Susan Boyle in his column, I looked it up on YouTube and was stunned. My eyes were full of tear.
Q: What is your dream, Susan?
A: Trying to be a professional singer.
Q: And why hasn't it worked out, Susan?
A: Well, because I am not given the chance before but here the whole things will change.
Watch it on YouTube.

Tetsuwan Atom (鉄腕アトム) opening (1963)
Osamu Tezuka is my idol. He earned a medical doctor degree but decided to heal the soul of the Japaneses hard hit by the war and recession. He built his own studio and pioneered animation, when this phrase was not even exist. He not only made movies to entertain people but wrote manga serious enough to deliver and discuss messages such as the purpose of life and humanity in a way much more effective than any thesis or novel.
My favorite work from Tezuka is the Phoenix (火の鳥,) series. The depth and the scope of the series can beat any Asian philosophy text book. The purpose of life and humanity, karma, human cloning, jealousy, hatred, human interactions with artificial intelligence, preservation of ancient local religions. Masterpiece. It will blow your mind away.

Palin's foreign policy experience in her own words
It is a joke to put this woman on the VP seat. I am very looking forward to the VP debate next Thursday.

Teaching material
Just come across a squash video on youtube. Jonathan Power vs Amr Shabana. Prabably the Wind City Open in 2007. It is a fantastic rally with a beautiful finish. Good footwork, good tactics. Every serious squash player should look and learn.

The Inner Life of the Cell
It is a bit long, but it is by far the most amazing animation for cell biology. It includes protein synthesis, trans-membrane signal transduction, intra-cellular cargo transport and leukocyte migration into tissue. Created by Robert Lue of Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Harvard University.

情與義
九十年代真的是周星馳創意的黃金時代。雖然電影的情節有時不合情理,但整體故事多數言之有物,而且個別笑位真的令人噴飯。此為食神中莫文蔚為周星馳擋了一刀之後,剎有介事地唱70年代電視劇《陸小鳳》的主題曲《情與義》一段:
還有用摺椅圍摳敵人的少林十八銅人:

The PCR Song
A colleague of mine found this video on Youtube. It is actually an ad for the PCR machines from Bio-Rad, but it is just madness. I can't stop laughing watching it. It is gross at some point, mind you.

I am Vader, Darth Vader... Hilarious!
From one of the best stand-up comedians Eddie Izzard on Lego Star Wars.
Vader: That must be the canteen here. Yeah. There must be a cafeteria downstairs, in between battles where Darth Vader gets, just chilled and go down.. I will have a pan-a-ala-arabia.
Attendant: You will need a tray.
Vader: Do you know who I am?
Attendant: Do you know who I AM?
Vader: This is not the game of "Who the Fuck are you". For I am Vader, Darth Vader, Lord Vader. I can kill you with a single thought.
Attendant: Well you still need a tray.
Vader: No, I will not need a tray. I do not need a tray to kill you. I can kill you with an out-age tray with the power of the Force. The force is strong within me. Even though I could kill you with a tray if I so wished. For I would hack out your neck with the thin bit until your blood flew upon the canteen floor...
Attendant: But the food is hot. You need a tray to put the food on.
Vader: Oh, I see.. the food is hot... I am sorry.. I did not realize... haha.. a-haha.. Oh.. J.. Yes. I though you were challenging me to the fight to the death.
Attendant: Fight to the death? This is the canteen. I work here.
Vader: Yes, but I am Vader, Lord Vader. Everyone challenges me to the fight to the death.
