Pink Panther



The next movie I want to see is the Pink Panther with Steve Martin. Should be a comic blast. In theaters Feb 10th!

Speaking of pink, I think it's perfectly fine for guys to wear pink. It takes a certain masculinity to be comfortable with it! I always think it funny when other guys say to one wearing pink, "Ooh, you are so gay!" I think they should be the one questioning their own sexuality. I'll be honest, I like wearing pink. I also know very well that I like women. Of course I'll only go as far as a pink polo...wearing all pink or hot pink is too much for me.

Here's an interesting site. Check it out. For the one photo I've submitted, my closest celebs are all black! I also had a match with Beyonce Knowles. Maybe that's why I have a thing for black women? Haha. I think I should try submitting another photo just to double check.

*Update: So submitting another photo gives totally different results! This time I had like a 45% match with John Cusack! Can you say swai? Hahaa. Conclusion, the software works damn well in finding matches, but the matches vary depending on the photo submitted...angle, orientation, laugh or cry, etc. I'm curious as to what kind of algorithms they actually use in doing the recognition.

Leadership

Check out the parody of Memoirs of a Geisha by Bobby Lee. Hilarious. Here's stuff on America's best leaders . Speaking of leadership, what makes a great leader? Do you have to be the smartest on the team? Or the best coordinator? It must really depend on the organization and job, but in general all leaders have to share similar traits. For example, I saw a brilliant basketball game today, Duke vs. Wake Forest. It's clear that Duke's leader is JJ Redick. That's because he is the most effective scorer, but also I think his will to win leads the team to achieve. Of course he is putting in perhaps the most work by scoring and playing nearly the whole 40 minutes. But he is defintely not the best defender on the team. So a leader needs to certainly be very skilled, but not necessarily the best at everything. The vision and determination is what makes a leader. Not everyone is a natural born leader. Some are better than others, by talent and nature. But I think leadership...

Yes, Taiwan Can!

I saw this image somewhere, and I thought it was nice. I hope we can spread it around! I apologize for not giving full credit, but if it's yours, let me know!

Of Mice and Men

Here's an interesting story, mice sing ! Check out the sound clip at the bottom of the page. Apparently during courtship male mice sing. This was discovered when researchers let male mice sniff on female or male mice urine, and though the original intention was to see how the male brain differentiates the pheromones, they noticed a rather complex ultrasound pattern erupted when hetero (whether there are homo mice is a question) male mice smelled female pheromones. This places mice in the same league as some other complex singing beings such as birds and dolphins! This is interesting for many reasons, but one I can think of is since mice are relatively easy to manipulate genetically, and the fact that they utilize complicated vocal patterns to court mates means perhaps mice have some simple language abilities. So we may be able to understand how language and vocal abilities develop and play such a crucial role (obviously as in birds better singers get to procreate!) in animals. We a...
