苦路，就是耶穌由山園祈禱開始，到比拉多衙門受審，並往加爾瓦略山上受難所走的那段路。釘十字架是一種殘酷的刑罰。滴血而亡之前受刑者必須背上自己的刑具--十字架，走一段桀途，受盡路人的灼灼目光，指指點點。這條苦路，你要它快些走完？還 是慢些走完？
每年天主教教會舉行拜苦路禮儀，追念耶穌在這段路上所受的種種誤會，苦難，受辱及死亡。苦路禮儀不僅是紀念二千年前耶穌的苦難及聖死，也是邀請耶穌陪同我們行人生的路。
生活在世，我們都背負自己的十字架。拜苦路是一個好時刻，讓我們默想自己的十字架，默想自己的苦路。

Walker Books
Children books publisher Walker Books is celebrating her 30th anniversary. A shooting on the sky, echos the light being held by the walking belly belly bear.I enjoy reading picture books a lot. Walker Books’ founder, Sebastian Walker, had a simple vision for the company: “All that counts,” he said, “is that a child says at the end of the book, ‘Again!’”
Exactly. Definition for nice stuffs is simple and straight-forward. Be it the food, be it the wine, be it the place, be it the people. When you feel like to have it again, the stuff is nice. And you should not need a checklist b4 of after your encounterment.

derek, desertfox, unkle4 and lee siu lung, I was talking about this
Getting Started with iPhone Web Apps
An iPhone web application—or iPhone web app—uses Web 2.0 technologies to deliver a focused solution that looks and behaves like a built-in iPhone application. iPhone web apps run in Safari on iPhone, the unique implementation of Safari that provides full-featured web browsing on iPhone OS–based devices and responds to touch-based gestures.
Start Here
To develop a great iPhone web app you need to:
Optimize your web content for Safari on iPhone
Design a user experience and user interface that follows Apple’s guidelines
Choose next how you want to get started—by reading about the basics, getting your hands on some code, or diving into specific technologies.
Want to get familiar with the fundamentals?
Optimizing Web Content and Configuring Web Applications describe how to begin the process of transforming your web content into an iPhone web app.
“Design for Your Users” in iPhone Human Interface Guidelines for Web Applications and Metrics, Layout Guidelines, and Tips introduce many of the user experience and user interface guidelines that govern great iPhone web apps.
Prefer to learn by doing?
Web Application Tutorial walks you through using Dashcode to create a simple web application you can run in Safari on iPhone.
Simple Browser is a sample project you can use to find out how to develop a productivity style iPhone web app (the built-in iPhone Settings application is an example of this style).
CardFlip is a sample project you can use to find out how to implement the back-to-front flip most utility style iPhone web apps perform (the built-in iPhone Weather application is an example of this style).
Want to find out how Safari on iPhone supports the web technologies you use?
Safari HTML Reference describes the HTML elements and attributes you can use in Safari on iPhone.
Safari CSS Reference describes the CSS properties Safari on iPhone supports.
WebKit DOM Programming Topics and WebKit DOM Reference cover accessing the DOM in your iPhone web app.

Sometimes you need task-focused information or answers to specific questions to get started. Browse the popular tasks described below for a more targeted way to start development on your iPhone web app.
Use visual effects to add richness to your iPhone web app. Safari CSS Visual Effects Guide describes how to use CSS properties to implement stunning visual effects in your iPhone web app without resorting to static images, Flash, or Dynamic HTML.
Take advantage of the Multi-Touch interface to allow users to tap, flick, and drag content in your iPhone web app. “Handling Multi-Touch Events” in Safari Web Content Guide describes how to register for and respond to these multi-touch events; Safari DOM Extensions Reference documents the WebKit DOM extensions that support them.
Add links to built-in iPhone applications to make your iPhone web app feel more integrated with users’ devices. Apple URL Scheme Reference describes how to add links that open Phone, Maps, iTunes, and more.

防曬面霜 VS 防曬乳液
其實之前也是 Biotherm 調色防曬面霜的用家，老家還有一支存貨。
三年前一個人搬到坪洲，不知道是因為少了湯水，還是多了陽光，面上的毛孔居然藏污納垢起來。美容師說可能是防曬面霜沒有推個均勻，是以堵失了毛孔，我也就轉用防曬乳液。
星期一出席 Biotherm 的工作坊，看見了久違了的調色防曬面霜，包裝沒有多變，但把面霜一塗在手上，我便知道往日種種，有如東流河水。
新一代 Biotherm 調色防曬面霜質地輕盈了，細緻了。

When caring for the skin, body lotions and creams are usually a helpful addition. Body lotions and creams help keep the skin hydrated and help to attain the goal of perfectly soft skin.
However when deciding whether to use a lotion or a cream, it depends on the individual and how dry the skin is. Dry skin can turn to be a more severe skin disorder if not taken care of and body lotions and creams help the skin to stay soft and fight against dry skin. The severity of the skin and how dry it is, will determine whether a lotion or a cream or a combination is necessary.
Both body lotions and creams are excellent at hydrating the skin and keeping it looking healthy and younger. Both work to heal and prevent dry skin by infusing it with moisture. Both are absorbed by the body into the blood stream and so it is important to make sure that whatever is going on your skin can be safe and healthy for your body.
Lotions and creams can be found with natural ingredients as opposed to being chemically based. It is important to know the ingredients of either the body lotion or cream that is being used and make sure that none of the ingredients will cause an allergic reaction in the body.
Body creams are generally used for skin disorders such as psoriasis and eczema as it can be spread over a small area of skin and can be used without wasting as much. Creams are particularly useful when the product does not have to be taken off the skin immediately as it is easily absorbed by the skin.
Creams for the body tend to be a better moisturizer and are better tolerated by the skin. Most are non-greasy which works well with most skin types and helps the skin maintain moisture. Eye creams and anti aging creams are also preferred over lotions targeting the same thing.
Lotions are generally used over larger parts of the body and work well over parts which are covered by hair, such as the chest or arms. Body lotions are quickly absorbed by the body and provide a cooling effect and so are generally recommended for dry skin during the summer months.
Body lotion is also used when the case of dry skin is more on the mild side. Many lotions have chemicals that cause them to have a perfume odor; however, this type is not recommended for dry skin.
As for deciding which is better to use, it depends on the individual and at many times, what their preference is. It is possible to even need both; a light body lotion may be needed in the day whereas a heavier cream is needed at night. A combination of both a body lotion and cream is often recommended for extremely dry skin, in order to get the optimal benefits of both moisturizers.

W for walking
工作關係，我常常做public speaking，或主持，或分享，有時也會玩票地教教書。
Wai Lim 前公司也是跨國企業，午膳時間亦有 sharing sessions。 Wai Lim 說他在這些活動一定選擇中間座位；無他，開講後主持一定會請聚居後座的同事挪往沒有人坐的前排位置，位居中者如醒目的Wai Lim，卻可安安樂樂。
哈哈。洗咩咁麻煩，如果我做speaker，遇見這樣的情況，我一定行入受眾中間。邊個話speaker 一定要被限死在講壇上說法架？！
Thom Singer shares:
The best orators go beyond the stage. They walk into the crowd as they deliver their remarks. Oprah Winfrey is famous for this style of speaking while amongst the audience, and it is one of the reasons that people feel connected to her when she speaks.
The best non-professional speaker I have ever seen was a CEO delivering a lunch-time talk to a group of 200 professionals at a meeting of the Central Texas Chapter of the Association for Corporate Growth. This group has successful business professionals address their members each month, but this one speaker stood out because he was one with the audience. He flowed away from the front of the room walked around, looking into the eyes of the people. Everyone was captivated. While his message, words, gestures, eye contact, poise and style were all great, it was his movements that made him spectacular.

Toyota and managing brand reputation
Toyota 出事後許多亞洲企業都兔死狐悲,想好好引以為鑒 。與 Wai Lim 討論,我說 Toyota 咁大檸樂,一沉百踩,人人喊打,皆因「樹大招風」。
樹大就一定招風,這個風可如何應對呢？McKinsey有些好點子:

Think outside the box
On her official website, Tangberg says: teams can easily collaborate with natural, life-like views of colleagues while sharing multimedia in high-definition clarityEasy to use yet supported by the most advanced features and functions for mission-critical communication.
When I walked into the conference room I saw my audience, the senior managers, and two huge Tangberg consoles. I got the cable plug-in and switched on my notebook... but my ppt did not appear on the screens. It seemed that the projector was out of service. Only the video conferencing function was working.
My audience was so forgiving that they did not show any impatience. Quite the opposite, managers started discussing for a solution. Then one of them came up with a brilliant idea, "Hey 70/F, I saw the video cam is working. Why don't you focus the cam with the screen of your PC and get the camera zoom in? I think that is an alternative way to make your ppt appear on the TVs."
So I fine tuned the focus and got the cam eye zoom in and eventually, we made it happen.
Everybody clapped and concluded "This is a vivid demo of THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!" Yeah, outside the Tangberg box.
