New Loudspeaker


Harbeth is a traditional British sound, 1987 model Harbeth HL Compact...The Treble is some what I can say more transparent and more precise than Harbeth LS3/5A and Audiomaster LS3/5A. I think it is good and I think I can stay with it for quite some time.

Good Business in Bad Economy!


After most of the people money had been evaporated 60%, there is a need for some of us to find another source of cash to settle the Credit card payment. Unless you do not have any credit payment.


If you have HKD30,000.00 unsettled amount under Hang Kung Bank VISA account, if you pay for the minimum payment every month, under such an interest rate of 33% propably you need another 30 years to clear off the debt.


A friend of us had an monthly income of HKD20,000 you know he has unsettled Visa payment of HKD400,000.00! I do not see any way he can settle it... So Simpson Brothers, AU Finish, DBX or Chu E financial company could be the untimately winner...for your properties


Do not forget , all these company can EASILY loan you more for helping to settling the VISA...

But do nto underestimate the terms and condition for how many years and how much you have to pay them every month....

Plastic Money





The concept of paying different merchants using the same card was invented in 1950 by Ralph Schneider and Frank X. McNamara, founders of Diners Club, to consolidate multiple cards. The Diners Club, which was created partially through a merger with Dine and Sign, produced the first "general purpose" charge card, and required the entire bill to be paid with each statement.



That was followed by Carte Blanche and in 1958 by American Express which created a worldwide credit card network.

Bank of America created the BankAmericard in 1958, a product which, with its overseas affiliates, eventually evolved into the Visa system.

MasterCard came to being in 1966 when a group of credit-issuing banks established MasterCharge; it received a significant boost when Citibank merged its proprietary Everything Card, launched in 1967, into Master Charge in 1969.

The fractured nature of the U.S. banking system meant that credit cards became an effective way for those who were traveling around the country to move their credit to places where they could not directly use their banking facilities.

In 1966 Barclaycard in the UK launched the first credit card outside of the U.S.

A smart card, combining credit card and debit card properties. The 3 by 5 mm security chip embedded in the card is shoThwn enlarged in the inset. The contact pads on the card enable electronic access to the chip.


Incard, Avesco is some of the supplier and pioneers in supplying Smart card with Display!



Some of them even testing using LED display with film battery embedded in.

Jaywalking in Hong Kong


Previous I had mentioned that more then 90% of Hong Kong Peoples would go jaywalking at red traffic light.


I think the figure should be more than 98% day time, and 99.99% at night!


All I can blame is the Social Education is not as good as enough as we need.

On December 21, 2012, the Mayan calendar will complete its thirteenth cycle. According to the Mayan belief system, the world will end.




And if you don’t believe the Mayans, you can check in with The Bible Code, The Nostradamus Code, or The Orion Prophecy, all of which predict planet-wide doom. Then again, maybe the year 2012 is just a new opportunity.




Could 2012 bring us good things instead of bad?



•Addresses Mayan predictions about global warming and climate change• Includes a glossary of terms and symbols, resources for a changing world, and exercises to assist the reader in their journey• The existence of almost 600,000 websites on 2012 indicates a huge fascination with this subject.

2009, An acidic test for human Character


Since The breakdown of the USA economy triggered by the bankrupt of Lehman Brothers... The world has gone into a darkest time...


Some of the Hong Kong Celebrities had committed suicides recently, most of them are rich and middle class people who has lost their wealth by 40-7-% as an average figure...whilst the poor is still the poor.


Some of the people will try to find dirty money by misconduct or by fraud reimbursement on their expenses report... just for a few thousand dollars and was discovered and immediately been terminated by the company. It happened in some of the companies...


Poor is not a sin, but dishonest cheating is a serious crime...well, I am not a crime analyist. Somehow I do nto understand why they did that?

Somehow I think we can not sleep well if we cheated someone...This is the beauty of the people borne in the Rooster year: hard working, honest, may be poor but we are Happy!


Hope that we can learn from all these people who had not learnt from the crime..


One day, we will come out of the dark cloud....


Do not worry! be happy!
PS
