After a long trip in Myanmar, I'll be coming back to L.A on April 17th.
Actually I'm at the Taipe airport at this time. I wanted to check this site but connection in Myanmar is not that great.
I got tons and tons of ThinGyan images and I can't wait to post those.
See you guys soon.....

Where Did Valentine's Day Begin?
DATE: 02/14/2008 09:54:17 / MOOD: in love
It's the day of flowers, candy, tokens of love and above all,
profits for those who sell them. But just where did Valentine's Day
begin?
Turns out, historians don't really know. But like all good legends there's no shortage of stories.
The most common seems to concern the Roman feast of Lupercalia, an
ancient fertility rite, honouring Juno, the goddess of love and
marriage.
On February 14th, the day before the feast began, men would
supposedly draw tickets from an urn and be expected to pursue the woman
whose name they drew.
A more common and religious explanation concerns Saint Valentine,
who was supposedly martyred on February 14th. Ancient texts record the
existence of three St. Valentine's but it's not clear how many there
really were, or what actually happened to him.
But the favourite story concerns a third century priest named
Valentine who defied the Emperor and performed secret marriages for
soldiers.
Claudius II had issued an edict forbidding the ceremony because he
thought single soldiers would be more willing to fight and die in
battle.
When the ruler found out his order had been defied, the priest was
sent to jail to await execution. He supposedly sent the jailer's
daughter a note before his sentence was carried out, signed 'from your
Valentine'.
He was put to death on February 14th, 270 A.D., and legend has it
his example of sending a love note has been followed ever since.
Much has changed since then, of course. But this hasn't - couples forget the day at their peril.
Valentine's Day has since become a multi-billion dollar industry but
a small token of love presented to your significant other can go a long
way from keeping you from becoming ensnared in a fate worse than
Claudius II's sentence!

The Next step

I think we are ready for the next step. C2M has been around since early 2000 which means it has been almost 8 years online. There are tons of Myanmar related website come and go.. Most of them just happen to be there and there is not much changes on it. We had installed this CMS/ software for a while and look like it it quite stable so we will use this as our main site next month. Let us know if you have any suggestion. Thanks for your time...

Ink Cartridges
DATE: 10/17/2007 13:03:15 / MOOD: other
I don't print photos with my inkjet printer but I do print CD cover & disc labels with my Epson Photo printer (Photo R260). As you know it is quite expensive to buy those ink cartradges. The whole system 6 cartridges can cost about $90 (including tax). So I finally decided to go with more affortable ink cartridges. Should you buy NON-OEM cartridges? Well, since I don't print photos and just CD or disc labels, I don't really care any more. Sure! why not, just to save money. Than one of my friend got this system (CIS) Continuous Ink System There are too many out there and I really don't know which one will be good for what I'm doing. I just have to read some review and test it out. But here is a few links I came across and it seem like they are ok! http://stores.ebay.com/SuperJetUSA-Store_Epson-Continuous-Ink-System_W0QQfsubZ2 http://www.inkjetfly.com/index.php ThanI have more questions.. What is Dye inks vs Pigment inks? Here is the link which explain about that. http://www.inkjetmall.com/store/techsupport/ts-media-and-ink.html I'lllet you know what I got later. I'm sure some of you are already have some fun with it or if you have better idea let me know about it. Alway Forward! Ko George
