Operation Trojan horse

This set of 20 videos is one of the most educational and comprehensive reports I’ve ever seen about the conspiracy to establish a one world government. It talks about the history of Masonic influence in Washington DC, the influence of the British Crown in America, the mysteries of the new Denver Airport, the truth of the 911 attacks, etc. It contains testimonials from eyewitnesses and is not just mere theory or speculation.

The first one I saw which a friend set me:

A look at Ubuntu 10.4

Fedora Firewall GUI

Fedora Firewall GUI. The services checked in this picture do not represent my personal configuration.

I downloaded the latest version of Ubuntu Linux, version 10.4, and installed it as a virtual machine with VMWare on my Fedora 12 pc. I also ran it as a live CD from boot. I’m still not convinced that Ubuntu is better than Fedora for me. Ubuntu is missing two GUIs (software with a graphic user interface) I use all the time in Fedora. There is

  • no firewall GUI
  • no services GUI

Michael Rood's explanation of the true meaning of Matthew 23:1-3

If you are a believer of the Jesus Christ of the New Testament, you just gotta see this video clip of Michael Rood and what he has to say about the true translation of Matthew chapter 23:1-3. I was absolutely thrilled to hear it!

I really like this guy. He looks like a person right out of the Bible. :-) I don’t know yet all his doctrines, but he did confess in disk 2 of his “Jonah code” series of having been previously wrong about his view of pre-tribulation rapture, and that earned my respect of him and caught my interest.

Dramatically restoring the performance of an exceedingly slow Windows XP machine

PIO Mode

IDE channel set to PIO mode.

Last night a young lady asked me to look at her Windows XP laptop. It was running much slower than it did when she first got it. Usually I first consider that the system is probably infected with malware or spyware, and I installed and ran SuperAntiSpyware to scan the C drive of her PC. But later I realized that she being the type of girl she is, would not be going to dangerous web sites from where she would be infected. SuperAntiSpyware reported no malware present. I then remembered that the primary IDE channel of a Windows XP system sometimes reverts from DMA to PIO. The graphic on the right shows what the current transfer mode should not be!

The smallest and lightest electrical bicycle in the world!

I love to ride bicycles and think the bicycle is perhaps the greatest invention of the 19th century. And I think the “Yike Bike” may be one of the greatest inventions of the 21st century! Check out the vid!!

Using Gnome Shell

Screenshot of Gnome 2.8 desktop

I installed a beta version of the new Gnome Shell desktop environment on my Fedora Linux PC, and it seems to be very cool indeed! And it’s free, not only free in in the meaning of “freedom” but even free as in “free lunch.”

Gnome is the standard desktop graphical environment for many Linux distributions, including Fedora, the Linux distribution I’ve been using on my PC since February 2005. Another popular Linux desktop environment is KDE. Some people like it better than Gnome, because it looks a bit more like Windows®, but I found KDE buggy and unstable, at least it was 5 years ago, and stuck with Gnome. There are even more desktop environments besides these two.

The first screenshot shows my normal Gnome desktop using a top bar to show open applications, and a bottom toolbar showing the standard Gnome toolbar. The wallpaper contains a not so subliminal message.

By default the Gnome toolbars are on the opposite sides, but like to change them because it’s more what I was used to when I worked in Windows®. Click any of the pictures to see an enlargement.

Nattou - fermented soy beans

Nattou in the styrofoam package it comes in

Recently I’ve been eating a traditional Japanese food called nattou nearly every day for lunch. Nattou is also known as “sticky beans. ” Click the photo to see why! Normally people eat it on top of rice, but I often eat it right out of the package with chopsticks after sprinkling on the soy sauce that comes with it. Nattou is very nutritious and good for health.

When I first ate nattou shortly after coming to Japan, I didn’t like it very much then, but I’ve grown fond of it over the years. It’s an acquired taste. I often ate nattou on the road in the early days because it’s the cheapest protein available.

Second hitchhike adventure 2010

Hitomi, (single, 27 years old) who took me back home

Hitomi (27) who took me back home

Princess the little Shih Tsu dog I am temporally taking care of was taken to be shampooed, and this set me free from caring for her to do other things. It’s a beautiful sunny day in normally cloudy Niigata and so I just had to grab the opportunity to get out again, hitchhike and meet people.

The first driver was a man who appeared to be in his upper 60s, maybe lower 70s. He drove at least 10 kilometers out of his way to take me to a convenient location from where to continue my trip. I left him with an Activated Magazine.
