Prevent iPhoto from Opening When Connecting iPhone to Mac
If you have a Mac and also an iPhone just like me, you probably sync your iPhone to your Mac using iTunes. It just makes sense!

Personally, I find this really annoying and end up closing iPhoto each time I connect my iPhone to my MacBook. Eventually, I decided to spend 5 minutes and fix the problem for good. Below [...]
Not Sure About A Tattoo? Try A Temporary Henna Tattoo!
I’ve never seen these Henna tattoos before today, and as I was reading about them, I learned they aren’t permanent. To get a Henna tattoo, you actually mix up a batch of paste called Henna. The tattoo lasts for 2-4 weeks before it finally fades away. This is a really cute idea if you want a test run of what it feels like to have a design on your skin for a while.

8个好用的Safari Extensions
Apple在6月发布了Safari 5，正式推出了对浏览器插件的支持。然后Apple又在7月底推出了自家官方的Safari Extensions gallery, 用于展示一些很棒的extension.

我自己试用了一些插件，在这里特别推荐8个比较好用又不会影响浏览器美观的插件，个人很讨厌一些插件出现在tab栏下占用浏览器可视区域，Twitter for Safari就是一个例子。

PS: 官方gallery不是唯一一个可以找到并安装新插件的地方，推荐 SafariExtensions on Tumblr 和 Pimp My Safari ，这两个网站每日都会推荐一些有特色的extension.
Chopper Scooter, I’m Totally Serious
If scooters are too passe for your bad boy, Jesse James lovin’ ego, check out this Chopper Scooter. The motorized mover was designed with linear lines and flowing shapes in mind – anything to hide it’s true identity. Great way to bring up those kids and get them all indoctrinated into the culture.

Nov 182009

今日惊悉两位藏人作家，因言获罪，被判重刑，呼求关注。恐将有更多藏人，亦可能面临或已经面临因司法不公正、黑箱操作构成的牢狱重刑。有增无减的镇压，这才是西藏的现实。两位藏人作家简介： 1、贡却才培：他于今年2月26日，在甘肃省甘南藏族自治州玛曲县的家中被捕。他是中国境内首个藏族文学门户网——“琼迈藏族文学网”的创办人之一。据悉对贡却才培的部分指控，与他在网站上发表的文章以及报道去年藏地抗议事件的消息有关。他被当地政府判处有期徒刑15年。据说他的家人直到上个星期被传唤到法庭听取判决时，才知道他的下落。 dtsv.dtse_post_822_permalink = ‘http://www.mckaywei.com/?p=822′; dtsv.dtse_post_822_title = ‘惊悉两位藏人作家因言获罪，被判重刑［转］’;
