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! However, you may have noticed that when you connect your iPhone to your Mac, the iPhoto application automatically opens also. 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. Apparently you can buy a Henna kit [...]
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

from 河蟹娱乐 by 胡戈戈在中国，如果你开车正常行驶在马路上？见一垂死之老头骑自行车逆行向你车头撞来。你应该如何处理： 1.立刻刹车，停住（评语，选本选项的人简直是法盲，对于伟大的道路安全法的严重后果一无所知即使停住，老头撞死在你车头，你一样要赔19.5万） 2.停车并下车锁上门（评语，选本选项的人简直是法盲，而且不看新闻，即使停车人下来发动机熄火，你没有停在白色停车框内，老头撞死在你车头，你一样要赔19.5万） 3.马上倒车，躲避老头（评语，选择本选项的人简直没有脑子，倒车时老头撞死在你车头，按照安全法你将负全部责任，赔款19.5*2万） 4.立刻刹车，停住，将钥匙拔下来交给一个路人说：“此时此地此分此秒，我把这辆车赠给你了” dtsv.dtse_post_941_permalink = ‘http://www.mckaywei.com/?p=941′; dtsv.dtse_post_941_title = ‘让司机极难做的一道选择题……［转］’;

在中国, 正义已经荡然无存

News About China No Responses »

Oct 292009

中共建政60年的历史,就是对正义反复蹂躏践踏的历史。如今,中共当局最骄傲的一点莫过于其经济改革的辉煌成就。据说取得如此成就的原因在于中国实行了一条不同于俄国东欧休克疗法的渐进路线。西方学者马克.伦纳德(Mark Leonard)在他那本?中国怎么想？?(What Does China Think？2007)一书里,引用主流经济学家张维迎的一个关于斑马村的寓言来解释中国的渐进改革。这个寓言讲的是:一个村庄原来主要依靠马来干活。过了一段时间后,村里的老人认识到邻村依靠斑马干活,效果更好。所以虽然多年来对马大唱赞歌,他们还是决定拥抱斑马。唯一的障碍是说服那些已经接受了几十年崇尚马的洗脑教育的村民。老者制定了精巧的计划。每天晚上,在村民睡着的时候,他们就在白马身上涂黑色条纹。 dtsv.dtse_post_234_permalink = ‘http://www.mckaywei.com/?p=234′; dtsv.dtse_post_234_title = ‘在中国, 正义已经荡然无存’;
