eco urinal

This invention revolutionize your relief experience. It turns nature's call from a two step process into a single integrated process. I cannot find a reason why this invention won't work. In fact, it can even get people who do not usually wash their hands after peeing to do so anyway; since the sink is conveniently there and since they have to flush. The general level of hygiene will improve. :D

The only few scenarios that I can come up with for this invention not to work is when... the user do not flush and insist on not washing his hands anyway.

infantry

I was reading a post when I saw this line, "There is a reason why armies still have foot soldiers, and why foot soldiers still carry bayonet." It is suppose to draw draw parallel to why pen and paper are still being used in the digital age. But I was too caught up with the term foot soldier, it seems so long since I put on my fatigues. I swear I am going to give my bmt buddy a call one of these days.. wonder if he is still with DSTA? (hmm go check facebook..)

Then I remembered The Infantry Song.

We are the bedrock of the Army,
Wanting to keep our people free.
Committed to the independence of our Nation,
We are the men from the Infantry.

There will never be a mountain too high,
Or a route too tough for us.
We are about to rule the day and the darkest night,
We won't rest till the wrong is right.

*Chorus:
From the land, air and sea,
We'll strike our enemies.
They'll call us the Queen of the battlefield.
We're brothers in arms.
We're brothers proud to be.
We're the first, the one and only Infantry.

We're a special band of soldiers,
Raised to guard our Nation's shores.
We based our lives upon a set of 7 values,
To defend our Nation's cause.

And when our country says she needs us,
We're always there by her side.
To protect the lives of every Singaporean.
For Singapore, we'll give our lives.

God.. bmt was a good 7 years ago.. 20 more years to ROD.

paraphrasing

After having read your senior's thesis so many times, you find writing original sentences in your own thesis pretty much a chore. With the same few keywords there is only so many sensible permutations you can try to fit them into a sentence before they become incomprehensible.

I am page 20 out of 170.

Don't worry if you do not understand everything that was thrown into the previous post. It just means you are not a geek.

FDDP's last ditch

The year long war ends with this final assault at the last ditch. The journey has been arduous and un-computational. The assault on the Thesis will begin at dawn tomorrow. Having claimed small victories at Conferences, Modules, Journals and Labs, I find myself within sight of the final 'multi' objective. I psyched myself up for the 2week long battle ahead of me. Flexing my fingers, I thought to myself, tomorrow is going to be a fierce battle. With fingers firing at 60 words per minute, a long drawn battle would see soldiers falling from fatigue, tension headaches, trembling fingers and double visions. The final compilation during the night of the Java Esclipse brought the casualty tally to 10Gigs of generated results. Matlab Medical has been called in to clean up the list. Nothing off the charts!, I had warned them. I want no outliers left behind. Keep everything within the STANDARD deviation. Heuristically, stochastic optimizers have been call in to maximize my odds of winning. Deterministically, I know the year long march can only end with one possibility. My standing triumphant over the 200 page long monster. This journey has been evolutionary! RAWR!!!

i prepare myself for the first salvo.
