今天在占占字起的blog看見了篇文章﹐談論賭博必勝術﹐已經是同一系列文章的第三篇。我初看以為是開玩笑的遊戲文章﹐賭博不可能贏受制於數學定律。想不到既然有人一本正經討論文章的必勝術是否可行﹐還正反相方洋洋數千字陳述賭海心法﹐看起來就像討論阿媽唔係女人一樣咁荒謬。… [...]

I have been doing lots of interviews recently. My project is half way and it is very behind in the schedule. How do we get into this mess in the first place? As usual it is bad management decision. Somehow we underestimate the complexity… [...] Last Friday, 9 bombs set off in Bangalore, killed two people and wounded over twenty people. I never feel so close to terrorist attack. I worked in Bangalore for two months. My colleagues took over my tasks are still working in Bangalore. … [...] Fossil fuel will eventually runs out, one of the solutions to the environment problem is switch to biofuel. Biofuel is produced by convernting plants into ethonal. Plants is 100% renewable energy. As long as there is land, water and… [...] 
還記得小時候放學回家﹐其中一套最愛看的卡通是《賽車小英雄》。看著那架可以上天下海法寶多多﹐白色車身紅色M字標記的麥克五號﹐就會幻想那是自己的坐駕﹐在賽車道上打倒敵人。想不到差不多二十年後,憑Martix成名的Wachowski兄弟﹐竟然把這套經典卡通搬上大銀幕開拍真人版。可能主角不再是小孩子﹐片名不能叫小英雄﹐名字順帶改為《標速賽車手》。… [...] Recently, I am addicted to this silly facebook application, which is quite not myself. In general I keep my distance from uselss facebook applications. I naturally ignore most of the application request and actually spent time delete… [...] When I worked in India, I made friends to a few colleagues in the Bangalore office. They shown me show me around town on weekends and we had lots of fun together. One of them is visiting Vancouver for work, so it is my turn to be the host and show… [...] Today we have our department quarterly update. The director flew in town to give us overview of how the department is doing. My project is the only project in the department, so it has very high profile and no room to fail. Thanks to the stupid… [...] 
日本動畫平常看了不少﹐丹麥動畫還是第一次看﹐其實丹麥語電影也是第一次看。一齣好的電影無分語言國界﹐只憑字幕也能夠感受到電影的感染力。每個國家的動畫也有不同風格﹐《公主追殺令》的畫面設計有別於日本動畫﹐日本動畫顏色精緻鮮明﹐這套動畫則運用大量陰影﹐富有美式漫畫的沉重感覺。看慣畫面變化紛亂的日本動畫﹐會覺得這動畫的畫面很緩慢﹐要一段時間去適應歐洲的節奏。動畫層次效果很簡單﹐大部鏡頭只是在靜止的背景上加人物動作﹐但絕對不是低成本馬虎製作﹐每個畫面的作畫也充滿詩意。這部動畫採用實驗性的拍攝手法﹐戲中的倒敘片段由真人演出﹐回憶以住平靜的日常生活﹐正好是Kill… [...] 
Today I tried a very unusual sandwich, yakisoba sandwich. I have heard of this sandwich from a childhood cartoon. The characters love having the Yakisoba sandwich all the time. I thought it must be a joke in the cartoon, who would want… [...] 
I just got the package from Royal Caribean for my Mediterranean cruise. I have to check-in online to register my passport and credit card. There are some information of onshore excursion tours come with the package. On each port the cruise… [...] 
Robert Whitlow的基督教懸疑小說﹐有John Grisham小說的緊張刺激﹐故事亦帶出聖經的道理﹐在阿瑪遜的書評大受好評。他的成名作《魔鬼名單》改篇為電影﹐也同樣受影評人的讚賞﹐說電影忠於原著發人深省。這套其實是獨立製作的電視電影﹐沒有大明星沒有特技效果﹐但劇本出色營做的氣氛具張力﹐一路吸引著觀眾的情緒。… [...] 
若要揀選我最喜愛的電影﹐《核子母艦遇險記》肯定在十大之內。我小時候是戰機迷﹐很喜歡任何與戰機有關的東西。在明珠台九三零播放時﹐家父把這套電影錄了下來﹐無聊時我便會翻出來重看﹐前前後後看了超過十次。劇本其實只是很普通的B級科幻片﹐但吸引之處是不惜功本的A級製作。電影得到美國軍方全力協助﹐在尼米茲號航空母艦上實地拍攝。… [...] 香港立法會最近通過《種族歧視條例草案》﹐本來立法禁止種族歧視是好事﹐世界大多數先進國家也有相關法例。可是其中有關語言歧視的條文甚具爭議性﹐從報章上說該法例規定﹐各公私營機構要為少數族裔提供翻譯服務﹐否則便是語言歧視即屬違法。政府原先為安撫商界的不安﹐提出豁免語言歧視修訂條文。豈料竟然被立法會否決修訂﹐引起報章評論和各界的反彈。… [...] Tonight I had dinner with an old friend. I haven’t seen her since I came back form India, so naturally our conversation is about my Indian adventure. Unfortunately, I forgot the memory card of my phone at home. I could not show her… [...] 在討論舊區重建時﹐很多人對服務街坊多來的老字號小店﹐總有一份不切實際的浪漫幻想。他們總是為老字號小店﹐不能在再今競爭激裂的市場生存﹐感到莫名奇妙的惋惜和傷感。他們一邊享受商品工業化價格下降帶來的成果﹐一邊留戀著老店價錢便宜商品獨特的品味。可是他們卻沒有察覺到﹐他們心中追求的老店是不可能存在的幻像﹐要馬兒好又要馬身不吃草。… [...] 
我們常常謔稱無線的劇集為師奶劇﹐劇情婆婆媽媽反智無聊﹐只能吸引對劇情要求不高的師奶觀眾。這次打正旗號拍攝師奶劇﹐放棄花旦小生改用師奶當主角﹐反而比那些扮嚴肅認真的大製作好看。可能是觀眾要求相對降低﹐既然開宗明義是師奶劇﹐就不用費神往劇本找碴邊看邊罵﹐反而可以專心欣賞劇情以外的其他優點。《師奶股神》沒有一線明星﹐劇中演員全部都是二三線演技派。商天娥這個師奶股神故然入型入格﹐謝天華飾演的大男人老公也很生動有趣。劇中演靚女角色﹐也是好戲中旦的湯盈盈與勝麗名。林嘉華完全勝任演奸角當股壇大鱷﹐不過要他兼任情聖追太子女就很勉強﹐以他的外表真的很難有說服力。大慨整套劇唯一劇演末夠班的人﹐就是當太子女的李亞男﹐不過她是溫哥華港姐﹐姑且網開一面吧。… [...] 
上次回香港逛書店﹐看看有什麼探討香港現況的書﹐視線這個醒目封面吸引﹐原來是文化評論人馬國明的最新著作﹐是他在報章發表文章的結集。隨手打開內文翻閱﹐題材包括近幾年香港人關心的時事﹐以本土文化的觀點行文﹐立場有別於主流傳媒聲音﹐與香港獨文媒體編輯部的論述意見一脈相乘。我在獨媒曾參與不少討論﹐與本土行動的支持者筆戰數十回﹐很清楚他們的立場和訴求﹐可是始終掌握不到支持他們背後理念的推論。香港本土主義在政治光普上﹐有別於傳統的左右分類。資本主義也好社會主義也好﹐不管認同還是反對﹐至少讀政治哲學時學過他們的理論。在討論政治和新聞事件時﹐立場取決於背後的政治理論﹐而不管是支持還是反對﹐也必須要明白理論的限制和假設﹐才能以理性去檢定審視敵我的雙方立場。網上的本土文化文章偏重感性而輕理論﹐討論時立場變得很主觀偏狹﹐對方想反對也找不到切入點。馬國明的這本「沒有光的所在」﹐正好為本土文化作一個慨述總結﹐將不同的事件串連起來﹐構成一幅本土文化的藍圖。… [...] Today my company has a presentation on recycling from our recycling company. It’s part customer education and part customer relationship. I learned many interesting fact about recycling, not just for environmental protection… [...] In Canada, all wedding couple have to get a marriage license before their wedding day. You can get it from many places, I just went to London Drugs to get mine from an insurance broker. The wedding license is just a piece of paper. It is the… [...] |
