I was so happy for past few days, waiting to see the new hummers flying off it nest, but reality is cruel, especially it involved human around.

Today, my dad asked me why is the nest off the floor, and I WAS SHOCKED and quickly rushed out to have a look.. to my horror... the nest was gone.. and the babies were gone too... when i look around... i spotted the babies... and quickly me n dad started resueing it...

Im glad they have feathers now, and im glad hummers r diff, and will still approach their babies although they been touched by the human... but the father dont seems to feeding them... erm

WHile typing... the baby hummer jump off the basket for more than 2 times... @@''

Why the tiger, not the lion, is king of the jungle
Katie Scott
14 September 2009

Lions may face a challenge to the species' long reign as king of the jungle, after scientists from Oxford University found that tigers have the bigger brains.

By measuring the skull size and volume of a large sample of tigers, lions, leopards and jaguars, they found that the tiger has a bigger brain than its big-cat cousins.

"When we compare the two biggest species, on average the lion has a bigger skull than the tiger based on the greatest length of the skull," said Dr Nobby Yamaguchi, of Oxford�s Wildlife Conservation Research Unit.

"However, the tiger has bigger cranial volume than the lion. It is truly amazing that tiny female Balinese tiger skulls have cranial volumes as large as those of huge male southern African lion skulls."

The tiger�s brain is, on average, 16 per cent larger than the lions.

It had previously been assumed that social species such as lions would have larger brains than solitary species like tigers, to cope with the demands of a complex social hierarchy, according to Science Daily.

Yamaguchi said: "Our results strongly suggest that there is no detectable positive relationship between relative brain size and sociality amongst these four big cat species, which shared a common ancestor around 3.7 million years ago."

The researchers are now planning to investigate what caused the variation in brain size among big cats.

Do u ever cried over a lyric? This is the only song that i cried over the lyric... it is so touching and so meaningful, but it make more sense if you watch the movie 1st ~ Cape no 7.

This movie alone is very funny, and very meaningful... is a mixture of languages, of Mandarin, Hokkien (dialect) and Japanese.

Whats more interesting is the director of the movie Wei Te-Sheng where he have to refinance his home and into debts in order to produce this beautiful piece of movie which grossed 2nd top film in the country's cinematic history, behind Titanic.

And the mode of promoting this movie was WORD OF MOUTH :D

Spoiler alert...."i Think"...
P.S: Suitable for those who dont want to watch the movie...

The movie setting was at a Taiwan small town, where a ex band singer came back after attempt at the town fail (i think), and obtained a part timer job as a Postman. There was a package that address to "non receiver add" which was suppose to return it to the sender at Japan. (a bit of history, Japan once occupied the land of Taiwan which is why alot of older generation Taiwanese speak Japanese... they called their mother Okasan mean mother).

But this postman instead of returning it to the sender at Japan, he opened the package. Inside of the package consist of 7 love letters by a Japanese teacher to his Taiwanese lover who was separated when the war end where the Japanese have to go back to Japan.

the 7 letters consist of his journey on board as well as the memories they have together. In the movie, the lead actor, read the letter one by one in different part of the movie with the voice over by Kousuke Atari (who acted as the Japanese teacher and Himself as guest of a concert)

One day the lead actress found out about the letters and urge lead actor to send to the recipient without any clues.... but of course happy ending always awaits this kind of movie.

The last scene of the movie where the Taiwanese lover saw the letters make me burst into tears.... it was so TOUCHING!

Im bad with actors and actress name, and i hardly know any Taiwanese actors or actresses....


Worth Watching :D

It almost 6 months i self learned Japanese Language, to me is a great achievement to my brain because ever since i graduated from the lousy university (full of politics and biases) i was in the depression mode for almost 2 years and a half, i show no interest in anything and everything and everyone, i just trying to avoid social activities except virtually.

Ever since working for my parents, my depression went from bad to disaster (due to some reason i cant describe how bad it went) and my brain simply dont function at all. I was living in a dead vassel without a soul, like a moving puppet without a soul simply controlled by the master.

A simple mathematic question i hardly solved. As in 56-34 =? will took me minutes to calculate, and ended up i seek the help of the calculator.

On the April, things changed, more labor work involved as our old workers went back to Indonesia, and new workers came in. We needed to train them, until the point i just have nerves breakdown and refused to go home, i rather stayed up till 6pm + before going home. This was when i started language learning.

It was a difficult start as my brain didnt work for 2 years... and sooner my brain started to be alive again. simple mathetic no longer a problem for me and i feel so much alive compared to the last 2 years.

Not only Japanese Language I planned to learn, but Spanish too, but Spanish word order and Japanese order r different, and the pronounciation of "R".

I get to know a senior over the virtual world, and he thought me alot of things that indirectly become the motivation drive... because i simply wanted to be like him, because he is so smart !

The conclusion is.... never stop learning, because once u stop learning, lots of things u will loose out.
