Logo worldcup 2006

(Claim: FIFA has copyright for this logo, and not be used commercially.)

You can get the whole details from this page. I like this logo first time I saw it. 1, makes us very happy when we see it, though everyone will be the loser except those from one country in the world, it's still a festival of soccer world. 2, modern stylish, you can soon feel familiar with it if you have used internet chat software. 3, Germanized, if you have seen some German animations, you can soon recognize it.

Open source first rule

We are very happy that there are hundreds of tons of brian working on those open source projects everyday, which rapidly enhance the code structures of their projects. However, if an open source code is in its 0.n version, then don't try it, only a waste of time. Also, though open source gather smart brians from all over the world for free, but meanwhile they also gather free of responsibility. Meaning every code maker will have much less responsibility cells in their mind then if they are actually hired by a boss. So, money = trust.

Recently, I tried to build up a sql server, which is MySQL. All the sql server are the same when they are naked. I tried some GUI clothes, Navicat has 30 days free trial, and it turns out that Navicat though simple but works. CocoaMySQL is in it's 0.5 version, so she still can do nothing.

Today, we lost in a tiny field soccer game

Yi Zhengliang has played a hat-trick, but this didn't help us to win the game. One of the reason is that the poor goalie... After the game, Zhengliang told that for a forward attacker, it's very simple, first you should have a very good burst speed or say acceleration (for those physicists), which can be got from the excercise of muscle and 20m folder running. and the second is that when you practise your shoot skill, you only need to remember one corner of the goal, then practise "2-5 steps then shoot" near the penalty line. and in this way for an amatuer match, you could goal at least once per game. and that's only true for forwards.

resume the exercise

instead of running a constant speed for a long way, i try to do 5X25 meter back and forward running. I only ran four times, and then died out. the reason i change my practicing style is because i'd like to progress my soccer ability.

wave phantom

The racing sneakers mizuno's wave phantom arrived today from San Diego. Tried today, super lightweight, super cool since it's texture is chasing. However, it's not super comfortable, maybe it takes time to feel better. Though, www.roadrunnersports.com has some trouble with their computer system, but they are recommended since they are expert on running projects.

Ran 6.8mi to Pathmark and back. YTD 132mi.

No news

Ran 8.4mi*8=6.72mi in Marine Park this afternoon. YTD 125.2mi. Sunny day, but chilly cold in night. I will run tomorrow morning. Don't know why had a dream of a new physics idea about quantum information, but found out to be error when awake.

Run again

6.8mile, chill. YTD 111.7mi. Just came back from Boston, and found that I have thousands of things remain undone. I will post some of the wedding fotos soon.

New training record for me

56 mins to finish a 6.8 mile training is not very bad at all, and I should celebrate my 100 mile marker. YTD 104.9mile. 64F Fair, beautiful weather. I dropped the cell phone today, and found that Led Zeppelin's Zoso is really really a very good rhythm for my running, but the poor ipod again striked, shame on apple. Also, my running shoes is going to be worn out soon, so I need to buy a new one at least 2 weeks before the gun shot. I am think of Mizuno Wave Phantom and Asics Gel-Kayano. Obviously, Asics is the Giant among this high-end market, but I personally still prefer Mizuno's.

I found there should be a sign: "hell and back, 26.2 miles, sundays-holidays" in New York City and Boston, I will try my best to find the sign. ;)

Xie Ping came here for their parents. and Yan Wanling and Xie Ping will get married on Sep. 26th. I will be there as a witness.

Resume to the socer field

Finally, after a long time away from the soccer field. I went back there to play again. Hopefully this time play soccer won't interrupt my running plan and my toe nail recovering process. though, I ran 2 miles today, YTD 98.1mile

Never ever drive in the mid-night in a city's express way when it's raining hardly.

Especially, in New York City highway. I drove back from coloumbia U, on the FDR drive, I saw one car accident, 3 good candidates of car accidents, just 50-100 meters in front me. Due to the extremely bad road condition and those maniac drivers, at 2am with heavy rain, You can hardly drive safely back to your own home. Lucky enough, I am here now in a piece so as to my car. My only suggestion is that never beyond speed limit when it's raining.

Good News is that Sister Ting and Azhuazi come to NYC. And beginning from last night, I have had 3 wonderful dinners and take crabs as late night meal. I am too tired and want to have some fun from movies and goto sleep.

I didn't run today, I called my big sister, and played minesweeper with didibabas and il

After all, the most excited thing is that I took some photos of the holy moon. please check this.

As the request of MuSiC, I changed the "m" to "M"

It's not easy to keep fast speed everyday

I did it in 62mins today. 65F fair. weekly 22.6 mile, and YTD 96.1 mile. I would like to say happy mid-autumn festival. 中秋节快�。But, I still need to wait till tonight to eat the moon cake. Don't forget to call your family members. ;)

Ran again 6.8 mile in 60 mins

Today, il found a set of GRE preparing kit. So, as a payback, I decide to draw a cheque to him, since he refused a real cheque. However, when you examine the cheque carefully, you could find that, the underline of your signature is actually a line of tiny-sized words, AUTHORIZEDSIGNATURE, repeatly. This is true for cheques printed by Harland. And the bank roting number and your account number is print in MICR font, which is a kind of font normally selling online as hundred bucks. So, I decide to handdraw it rather than use computer. And it's really have nothing to do with your drawing skill, just a test of patient. Almost half night, I only finished all the lines and my first name. If you do not have a good ruler and a good quality mechanical pencil such as rOtring Tikky, the work will be tough. BTW, I found lost a pencil box yesterday, which is a gift my sister gave it to me 8 years ago. And there is a rOtring Tikky II inside it, a kind of German classical noble role model which you can hardly find from US market presently because this company was unfortunately eaten by Sanford.

Today, I found what's the meaning of "harpo" and "chico", do ya wanna guess? Sure, I give you 3 mins, dida dida... dida, hmm time is up. Actually these computers are named after a famous comedy actor group, Marx Brothers from 30's last century. They are 5 brothers, Groucho, Harpo, Chico, Gummo and Zeppo, and before they became famous from Broadway, Gummo has left this group already, so at a later time, it became "well-known" Groucho, Harpo, Chico and sometimes Zeppo. After I told Il this truth, he got to know why his thesis advisor's computer is named Zeppo. So, You are welcome to visit a "famous" world wide web http://harpo.physics.gatech.edu. There might be also some stories from music band Queen, because it is easy to see that they have two albums "a night at the opera" and "a day at the races" sharing the titles with the movies of Marx Brothers. Marxs are really brothers, while Queen are gays, however, their music is super.

BTW, 63F, fair, YTD 89.3 mile, weekly 15.8 mile. Hopely tomorrow I can be back within 59 mins. gotta goto bed and kiss my pillow.

I borrowed 10 CDs from Donell Media Center in NY Public Library

First, running log, 6.8miles today within 60 mins, but still far away from the rate of 26.2mile/3:10, which is the rate I can get a lobster dinner from music. Weather was fair and temp was 64F. YTD 82.5miles. Yesterday, I did Fartlek in the afternoon under the precious sunshine after a week long rain and played roller skate, but still looks like a duck when I am skating. and I ran for 2 miles yesterday night. Dang it, iL and I thought tonight is the right night that Moon seems the closest to Mars, while in these days, Mars is the closest to Earth since 60 thousand years ago. But, when I brought my big sister's bf, EOS 10D, to watch Mars and Moon, then they both hided behind the clouds. I think god won't like to let our camera to desecrate this holy moment.

After last weekend's frustration of the poor public libraries. I found a good place today. And borrowed 10 CDs from 3 performance groups, Aerosmith, pet shop boys and jimmy hendrix. lalalala lalalala, ...

learned a word, sprint, meaning run in a fastest possible speed. and sprinter means short-distance runner. also learned a lot of words from biology.

ok, tomorrow i will have some lectures to listen to, and i need be able to get up at 10am. the sounds of coldplay and aerosmith are hovering in my mind all the time. :S

Ran again

6.8miles. Sorry, too tired to write down something more.

I was too tired these days.

I would like to say sorry to those loyal readers of my weblog. I haven't updated this weblog for a while.

When facing the monitor, I even don't have the desire to touch the sexy A4tech keyboards. Last weekend, I went to Baltimore, and then we (including Hou Ningqi, music, dini, vital, moses and I) went to Shenandoah (note: the "ah" is not silent due to the Indian Language) National Park. And then I went back to big apple at 5pm on Sep. 2nd, 6:20 back to home, and got out of home on 7pm to meet QEEQ at Penn Station. Blah Blah Blah... Finally, my friend left on Friday noon from Penn Station, and I went to New York Public Library at Lincoln Center, a branch of performance art. But when check the catalog of music online, I found that almost all the status of the excellent Rock CDs are either missing or lost. One of the reason I love big city is that you can always find something new in there even you've been there for several years.

After the trip to Shenandoah National Park, and inspired by Moses, I decide to save some money in order to prepare my conjectured wedding, though I don't even know who will be my only formal legal eternal sexual partner. It might seems like a joke for those Americans, but this is the real situation for Traditional Chinese guys.

Also, with the an unsatisfied mood, I came out of NYPL, and bought another coldplay's album, parachutes. However, the samething happened again, my ears are not even have enough energy to resonance those beautiful songs.

Ok, then what I can only do is to run, I ran the 6.8 mile trail again. And this time, since I forgot to goto laundry, I can only wear soccer pants without pocket. (I am exhausted now, I would like to finish my diary soon. and will update it at a later time.) 63F fair. Weekly, 6.8mi, YTD 73.7mi.

I didn't really run yesterday.

Everyday, I am struggling myself several times, should I get up now or can I have another 5 minute nap? Should I run? Should I ..., sometimes it seems hard to convince myself to do something obviously good for me. I was thinking about to have a rest yesterday, and then I saw il has already gone out while I was taking the crappy pictures of the nearest Mars since 60, 000 years. Ok, no run today, have a rest, work out some problems on Peskin's book... Then I saw didibaba's weblog, and decided to try the Fartlek training method, which is a well-known training method for long running. It is just as simple as run fast as possible for 1min, slow down, after 1min recover, run your best again. I went out to run a Fartlek, after a few minutes, tired out, back ... Oh, I should say this is the only method that makes Korean Soccer Team never been exhausted in Worldcup 2002, they were training 100 times of 5*25 m round-trip running.

Then watched movie "Love Story", and remembered that the author, Erich Segal has marathon mania. Ok, google this name, I found this page. The article goes underneath:

First Marathons: Personal Encounters with the 26.2-Mile Monster -- May 2002 chapter

Edited by Gail Kislevitz

Erich Segal

Born: June 16, 1937

Race: 1955 Boston Marathon

Age at first marathon: 18

Mercifully, the course after Heartbreak was -- like my mood -- all downhill. Somehow as it declined into Cleveland Circle I began to plod again and entered the city of Boston semi-comatose, but determined to reach the finish at Exeter Street. The last mile seemed endless. The one indelible memory: In Kenmore Square stood the baseball immortal Ted Williams (the race was run in between the games of a Red Sox double header). He was clapping with admiration for all who passed. A friend of mine actually heard him say, "Now those guys are real athletes."

Now, I had known that if I ever succeeded in achieving this feat no one would believe me, so I had a classmate, one Larry Ambush, wait at the finish line with his camera to record my achievement for posterity. At long last, I stumbled across the line on two wooden legs and was unable to walk for a week.

This caused a bit of a problem back in school as I was playing King Creon in the Greek club's production of Oedipus at Colonus and I was supposed to storm angrily on stage, leading my soldiers and assert my authority. But I was rigid and could scarcely move my legs to shuffle. And so the director had to change the staging and have my troops carry me in. I am sure many of the scholars present that day thought it was a new artistic interpretation.

I ran my first Boston in 3:40, which made me seventy-ninth. (Those were the days!). I had originally thought that if I actually finished the entire marathon it would be the peak of my "career," and I could retire a winner. After all, had I not achieved something athletic? And I'd have the photo to prove it.

Except that Larry Ambush's picture did not come out! It showed nothing but an unrecognizable blur. Now I would have to do it again and find a better photographer.

By the next year I was hooked. I now set myself a genuinely impressive target: to break three hours for the distance. Which I finally did in 1960.

In all, I ran twenty consecutive Bostons and became such a regular that Will Clooney, the race director, reserved the number 99 for me every year. My best performance was almost a full hour faster than the first. Most of the others hovered on either side of the three-hour mark -- the most frustrating: 3:00:19!

In the twentieth year I had a bout of pneumonia a month prior to the race and was strictly forbidden by my own doctor to run. I disobeyed. I felt by then that my feet knew every step of the way and would do it for me. And they did.

The serious training I did in those years changed my life forevermore. It is one thing to be scrawny, but it is another to be scrawny and fit. The strength I acquired through long, hard running energized my entire life, mentally as well as physically.

I would often come back from a run with the idea for a plot of a story or the words of a song, which would come to me as if the mind had been refreshed with more oxygen and inspiration lubricated by the perspiration from my efforts.

No day -- no matter how stressful -- ever ended on a sour note. A ten-mile run beats Prozac anytime.

During my less-than-brilliant career, I ran another twenty marathons in places as distant as Belgium and England. And wherever I went the feeling of mutual support and camaraderie made instant friendships.

I also picked up some tips along the way, one of which is worth passing on. Every marathon runner has a favorite song to which he sings in his head to keep the cadence of his stride. My most effective tune was "Hello Dolly," which underscored literally thousands of miles. Try it -- it'll take you a long way. That is all the wisdom I have to impart on this matter.

Oh yes, for the record, I do deserve a tiny footnote in the history books -- for having been Frank Shorter's teacher at Yale. I would like to take this opportunity to report a hitherto unknown incident.

One afternoon I was chugging around the college track, timing myself for a ten-miler. Frank watched me reel off lap after lap and could not keep from remarking to his teammates, loud enough for me to hear, "A guy would have to be crazy to run a marathon."

A few years later, I reminded him of this when he won the gold medal at the Olympics in 1972 and I was interviewing him for ABC- TV.

Frank smiled. It didn't seem crazy then.

Alas, an unexpected injury -- unrelated to running -- spoiled my intention to keep running until I was at least a hundred.

I miss it.

Some people dream of becoming president, winning the Nobel Prize, or flying to the moon. My own fantasy is to be running once again in my short pants through the streets of Boston being cheered by that knowing, loving crowd.

So listen, the next time you are due for a workout and it is raining, windy, and freezing, and you are thinking of putting it off, count yourself lucky.

Get out there and enjoy the best feeling life can give.

Got some idea while running

Maybe it's obviously wrong, who knows. Ran another 6.8 miles. total time 1:13, bought a 20oz pepsi, weather 77F fair. Got the $300 rebate from Apple inc., those computer companies really very fast. Just learned from didibaba that google can be a calculator, normally i use it as a spelling checker.

After several day rest, I recovered my running.

I ran as usual to Pathmark, and got back. Total distance 6.8 miles, and bought the a big Mac meal on the half way back in a Mcdonalds. I imported the Zoso CD Album before run, so that I can run with a highly quality AAC music environment. This is the first time I am really satisfied with iPod, since I can feel real high quality music. And if anyone is considering a mp3 music earplug player, my suggestion is that a normal sized (approx. 1MB/Min) mp3 song is ok for speaker but never good enough from earplug, even worse than tapes and FM channels. So, please get a higher resolution musical file for better life quality of your ears. And for everyone who is gonna buy an iPod, please note that it's a small harddrive and easily get crashing when doing the sports. Please read this website http://www.mikeshardware.com/reviews/review_ipod2/ carefully before spending your US Presidents. With enjoying of the music, I ran a fast speed today. Weather is fair and perfect 69F. The only thing in the exception today is that my cell phone was dead and getting repairing today, hopefully will be back tomorrow. Poor Korean cell phone.

Dang, I forgot one thing. Recently, my homepage on harpo.physics.gatech.edu/~biajee was blocked from outside of Gatech. Maybe the reason is Il opened an ftp account of it and let blogger.com to visit it. Hopefully Il and I will get harpo back soon.

I forgot another thing, which is I ran Aug 23, with a very short distance of 2.4miles. So YTD until today is 60.1 miles.

Almost rest today.

Ran to AVE N + Nostrand AVE, and then back, total 2.8 miles, fair, 80F, feels like 85F, super hot. Bought nothing, and the medalet is that there are two Blacks on the street who scared me a little by sudden action. Really hot, but more comfortable than before. YTD 51.4 miles

It's almost my first time run a 6.8 mille in consecutive two days.

I was not really maxed out today, but my cell phone does. It won't work at the end of the trail simply because the buttons immersed in my sweat, a good conductive solution. Ran to PathMark as usual, 6.8 miles, 79F, fair, a little hot to me (dont kick me). Bought a 20 oz of twisted Pepsi from vending machine, i tried to order something else, but it turned out that only this thing was not sold out. YTD 48.6 miles.

It was scandal yesterday.

Yesterday, with the encouraging of Didibaba, I called il to run together. But dang il said he was happy reading Wu3 Xia2 Xia3 Shuo1 (knight-errant story), and prefer not to run. Then I went out alone, and after crossed 3 blocks, I feeled very uncomfortable, feels like I was choked. With this excuse, I stopped, and stepped back to home.

So, today, I called il to run before I got back to home. And then ran to Pathmark and back together with il by calling, 6.8 miles, YTD 41.8 miles. The weather was fair and perfect 73F. I bought a 20oz bottle of twisted Pepsi from vending machine at the turn back point. Not very tired, and happily cooking beef.

Too tired, only ran 4.0miles

Ran to E85 St. + Flatlands AVE, 4.0miles, 65F, fair, YTD 35.0miles.

Resume running again

Ran to Pathmark, 6.8mile, 74F, fair, bought a 20oz bottle of pepsi, ytd 31.0miles.

Welcome to email me at:biajee@yahoo.com. And my homepage is biajee's island

It's dark outside yesterday, since the largest blackout. I went out by driving my car, and I found it's very dangerous if totally dark. There always some people from nowhere may scare you. Here is the running log archieved:

 

		I have seen some fancy little software measure the distance a mouse arrow has run, and they call it the mileage of the mouse. I don't know if it's really "mileage" or just "centi-meterage". But for me, it's really a mileage, looks like a mileage meter in every car, accurate till 0.1 mile. And the distance I wrote here is exactly what I got from map.yahoo.com. The weather is coming from www.weather.com. It's really really boring while running, so normally, I am running with my ipod on and have a turning point medalet, e.g. buy something cheap enough but makes happy. Till now it's just a raw mileage log, I will someday update to a database version. I suppose everyone could easily convert to metric unit system by theirselves. Note: the date shown here is till midnight of the day. I usually run in midnight, so it's easy to count as the day before.
