Yes, it’s august now.

I payed a little time to get my blog program up to date. It’s version 2.6 now. Seems that there are lots of exciting changes: Gears, Post revision. Cool~ but I haven’t notice any difference until now. Just checked my Gears installation and it’s disabled since it’s not compatible to FF version 3.01… Gonna update it and see what will happen then.

I was lazy in July - made nothing, even a blog post. Maybe I can figure out what to do on this month. Write some codes? Or date someone? Who knows~~~

jQuery 1.2.6 released a months ago with some exciting improvements:

• Event Handling is 103% Faster
• CSS Selectors are 13% faster
• .offset() is 21% faster
• .css() is 25% faster

and many others.

Have you felt the speed change on my site? ;P, maybe not!

Haven’t tried Ubuntu for almost 2 years since I installed Ubuntu 6 on my desktop PC. I upgraded my hard driver to 160G last week thus there’s enough space to install a Ubuntu beside Vista. So I got Ubuntu 8.04 “Hardy Heron” installed.

The installation was quite straight forward and didn’t change to much. But the usability is much batter than v6. My wireless connection was successfully configured and connected. NTFS partitions were well supported. With additional codec installed, all of my musics and movies were played smoothly - even my iPod was recognized which was a big surprise to me. And the compz stuff is just awesome:

I think I will spend more time on linux than Vista from now on. Howday(again*-*) open source!

昨天下午在公司时就同事说起四川发生地震。但是四川、云南一带一直以来地震频发，再加上对于7.5级这个数字没有多少概念，所以也没太在意。听说”只是屋顶滑落了几片瓦而已”，还在感叹中国的基础设施建设比缅甸强~
回家看新闻频道，才知道问题的严重性了。7.8级地震，整个县城与外界失去联系，全国都有震感，温家宝直飞现场…查了一下资料，当初的唐山地震也是7.8级，一下子惊呆了：不会历史重演吧？
今天早上少有地打开了电视看了一下新闻，救援队还没进入震中心汶川，汶川周围的地区就已经触目惊心了，统计上来的死亡人数已近万人。
部队今天上午已经开过去几万人了，正在汶川进发，估计现在已经有一些部队开进去了—因为道路完全被封死了，所有救援人员都是徒步前进，速度相当慢。空降部队也因为灾区目前的大雨没法空投物资和部队…下面是救援部队的示意图：

现在我只能默默祈祷，希望部队早一点开进去，希望汶川的同胞们坚持住。祝他们平安！
